havedeveloped a new approach for engaging engineering undergraduates in projectsassociated with grand challenges in engineering as outlined by National Academy ofEngineering, World Health, and others. The program was created to developknowledge and skills for engineering design, lifelong learning, multidisciplinaryteamwork, effective communication, applying engineering fundamentals to problemsolving, and appreciating influences of engineering on people.Program DescriptionThe goal of the program is to provide undergraduate students opportunities to addresssignificant interdisciplinary challenges that incorporate elements of some of the mostimportant engineering challenges. They should learn and apply engineering concepts,principles, and approaches in

This type of engagement is vital for students to innovate [14], [15] and to thinkcreatively [16].Muldner and Burleson [17] showed that students’ engagement differs between low and highcreative students. Likewise, Koch et al., [18] and Eldor and Harpaz [19] reported that workersemploy higher cognitive flexibility, which leads to creative performance when they areengaged. Reid and Solomonides [20] found that engagement and creativity support each otherfor student learning in design. Taken together, stereotype threat might then pose a challengeto creativity performance through distraction and disengagement on the critical task

Broadly, ethics can be divided into two main foci; micro-ethics, which focuseson an individual’s behavior, and macro-ethics, which focuses more on the social responsibilitiesof the profession as a whole. Creating learning environments in engineering programs is acritical step in developing engineers that practice in ethical ways. There are many challenges forengineering faculty, however, regarding the ethics education of engineering students. Previouswork has highlighted barriers to effective ethics education including a lack of studentengagement, working ethics into

The program will limit enrollment to 40 cadets (two sections) for the inaugural class, but it must meet the minimum requirements for the curriculum. • Facility Availability: Extended delays in the construction of the CEAC or the wind tunnels could impact instruction of the first class and impact ABET accreditation. Because ABET evaluation and accreditation require students to have graduated from the program, the initial four student year groups enrolled (2028, 2029, 2030, 2030) will commit to the major on the assumption that the program will be accredited in 2029.

To identify as a virtual community, the group’ssocial interaction with peers, such as the interaction that takes place during a peer review event,takes place virtually. At times, people tend to gravitate to others with similar interests, but that isnot a requirement of a peer event. Hence, elements of a course should be designed in such a wayas to “provoke the kinds of thoughtful engagement that helps students develop effective thinkingskills and attitudes that contribute to effective problem solving and critical thinking,”(2) (p. 889).Therefore, using a social constructivist

Increasingly, engineering schools are requiring students to work on team projects that areopen-ended with loosely specified requirements, produce professional-quality reports andpresentations, consider ethics and the impact of their field on society, and develop lifelonglearning practices. While there exist numerous implementations of courses adopting these methodsto purportedly improve student learning, measuring the impact of problem-based instructionremains challenging. The existing evidence generally suffers from methodological shortcomingssuch as reliance on students’ self-reported perceptions of
