tasks, research your topic, and share the knowledge you gained with your team. Once thearticle was submitted, as before, it was evaluated by the classmates, instructed to identify the bestthree articles (first place, second place, and third place). The criteria for peer review wereseparated into a) Use of Content; b) Critical Thinking; c) Organization; and d) Mechanics (seeAppendix 3). The “best article” received an additional 10 extra points, while the second and thirdplace received 5 extra credit points. The students responded positively to the assignment.Pipeline Systems (Laboratory #3)This exercise was done during a session of laboratory, in a computer room, and using HydroFlosoftware installed on university’s computers. At the time the
deliverables of the KickStarter program include: 1. Sustainable proposal development technical assistance infrastructure at Science Foundation Arizona (SFAz) tailored to the needs of CC-HSIs, which will increase the submission of competitive NSF proposals; 2. Robust collection of mutually-beneficial, widely-informative, STEM-focused, online networks and professional learning communities (PLCs) that support critical partnerships needed to be competitive at NSF; 3. Data-capture capabilities that support CC-HSIs’ ability to improve their NSF competitiveness and effectively implement projects; and 4. Roadmap that other Hispanic-serving institutions can adapt to accomplish similar goals.As a result of the CC-HSIs
and interactions between aerodynamics, structures and materials, dynamics and control, propulsion, performance, and internal systems on the design and fabrication of a flight vehicle.5. Detail the importance of considering safety, reliability, and maintenance considerations in flight vehicle design and testing to validate engineering designs.6. Communicate testing results in technical reports, briefings, and presentations.Modifications to existing Aerospace Vehicle Design II course Spring 2014Four teams continued from the Aerospace Vehicle Design I course where SE concepts had beenintroduced. Therefore, students entered the second capstone design course with some SEknowledge and skills. While SE content had

Together, we created a summer program where asmall cohort of students and teachers had an opportunity to do six weeks of cutting-edge researchat CISTAR followed by an opportunity to “give back” by mentoring kids in engineering andscience for four weeks at NSBE SEEK.We hope to engender more interest in combined programs by describing initial survey evidenceof the program’s success and consistent-with-research, built-in design elements that contributedto that success.

However, understanding the fullimpact of the hiring process in computing, and in particular, how it affects groups alreadyunderrepresented in computing (women, Black/African American, and Hispanic/Latinx workers),is important to creating a workplace of diverse talent [4–6]. Given the paucity of rigorousresearch surrounding the steps in the process, our motivation for this work was to create acomprehensive assessment of what hiring in computing looks like from the perspective of the jobseeker.

One participant noted that professional skills were“outside of their comfort zone” and that engineering curricula are “heavily weighted towards thetechnical.”One of the main curriculum flaws noted by the research participants included the assessment ofprofessional skills. One participant commented, “Technical (assessment) is easier,” and anothernoted, “You can tell why we all become engineers.” They indicated that soft
