knowledge base and professional network. The constantadvance of technology and the emergence of engineering education programs across the U.S.have changed the playing field for graduate students seeking to discuss engineering educationwith their peers. Every few years, there is an analysis of the needs of graduate students involvedin engineering education.3-5 This study is a look at the current landscape of ASEE’s StudentChapters.Students have a long history as members of ASEE. Jim Jones, a Mechanical Engineeringprofessor, was the adviser for the creation of the first Student Chapter at Purdue University in1993.6 Student Chapters expanded to other institutions with strong student membership in ASEE.During the 2000s, student membership increased

-oriented environment and suggests that students should be taught solving complexproblems along with other basic skills such as reading, writing, and speaking, rather than inisolation. Similarly, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) [4] statesthat problem solving in engineering should address complex problems and that engineering facultyshould understand problem solving. Given that problem solving is an expected skill of engineeringstudents, faculty, and practicing engineers, it should also be essential to education in addition tothe workplace. Jonassen [5] defines ill-structured problems as emergent dilemmas because they are partof our everyday lives. They are not limited to classroom contexts, require integration

MethodThe goal of this study is to address the issue of “how” to design interdisciplinary AIeducational programs, and the related research is still in the exploratory stage. Therefore, thisstudy adopted a cross-sectional case study of a primarily qualitative and interpretative nature[23]. We collected qualitative information through investigation, official websites, and otherchannels, and analyzed the design of interdisciplinary program that emerged from the casestudy from bottom to top.3.2 Case SelectionThis study selected an ongoing AI interdisciplinary certification program as research objectfor the following reasons. Firstly, this program is aimed at undergraduate and graduatestudents from different disciplinary backgrounds to train their basic

While all students did not complete both surveys, all 16 students completed thepre-test and provided consent to participate in this study. In Table 1, we provide pseudonyms anddemographic data for only the 12 students who completed both surveys. Due to the small samplesize, we omitted demographic information to help protect students’ identities. Exampledemographic information that we possess but did not provide in Table 1 include gender,concentration in multidisciplinary engineering or interdisciplinary engineering studies, andextracurricular and professional activities. Students pursued concentrations in computer science
is undeniable, we must also recognize that where diversitynumbers exist, we see a stark and broad diversity problem in the field, as has long been reportedin computer science and STEM [4], [5]. Only 18% of graduates from AI PhD programs arewomen in North America [3], and 22% globally [6]. Ethnicity and race statistics, when available,show rates of roughly 4% Black representation in the AI PhD graduates and technology worksectors [3], [6]. The emergence of initiatives and organizations such as “Queer In AI,” “Black InAI,” and “Indigenous AI” indicate that there is a need for support and outreach towardsunderrepresented groups in this field [3].This lack of diversity has multiple important consequences. First, lacking a diverse field ofworkers
