research. In the 1960s, government institutions such as the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) began to support applied research which further spurred interdisciplinary teamformation in research. Continued funding for interdisciplinary research, centers, and traineeprograms thus stimulates and reinforces interdisciplinary foci at research universities [2], [3].Faculty with these shared interests can leverage their common research relationships and channeltheir passion for a topic into the development of interdisciplinary courses [4]. A cluster ofrelated classes can then form a minor program [5] and, if desired, be combined with existingclasses to form a major program [4].While leveraging existing research partnerships may be a pragmatic path for

Autonomous Vehicles – real phenomena in virtual worldsA driving simulator is used in the experiment “Autonomous Vehicles” to explain mechanicaland autonomous systems within the field of transportation. The goal is to show the dynamicstability of a car through control loops. The students learn the importance of control theory inautonomous systems that are part of their daily lives (e.g. temperature regulations inrefrigerators). Through the use of numerous examples, students become familiar with controlloop elements, as human and technical analogies have proven to be useful learning stimulusfor students (Fig. 4). An example is the analysis of a human performing a simple

The field trip is one method to enhance inclusion, as students who might not havepreviously been provided with the opportunity to visit a museum are able to have the same in-person interactive experience as others in the course. Additionally, the field trip includes aprivate tour and presentation from exhibit designers, including a Q&A session. Exhibit designershave diverse technical backgrounds, which promotes student conceptualization of engineeringand STEM as existing across diverse career paths. When students can self-identify within theirchosen field, motivation and perseverance are positively impacted [4]. For reference, the studentsin

Virtualmachines on the same virtual network communicate with each other internally like physicalmachines on the same LAN subnet. When external connectivity is needed, the virtual networkcan be configured to share the IP address of the host operating system. The virtual network isprotected behind a NAT firewall.The pre-built virtual machine was then compressed using 7-Zip6 before distribution. The size ofthe compressed virtual machine was 419 MB.

Bioengineering Capstone ReportsIn addition to technical skill development, engineering undergraduate curricula must also fosterdevelopment of effective communication skills. The capstone report often plays an instrumentalrole in this development, as it comprises both the final assessment of student communicationperformance and it is the most significant opportunity for active learning of in-disciplinecommunication skills. Peer review has been proposed as an ideal means to provide students withmuch-needed formative feedback.1–3 In addition, peer review has the potential to increase studentinterpersonal communication skills and metacognition, provided that the review activity isstructured to encourage constructive contributions and reflection.In this

MiguelAndr´es’s research includes sustainable infrastructure design and planning, smart and resilient cities, and the development of engineers who not only have strong technical and practical knowledge but the social awareness and agency to address global humanitarian, environmental, and social justice challenges. For him, social justice is a concept that should always be involved in discussions on infrastructure. Related to STEM education, Miguel Andr´es is in developing and applying contemporary pedagogies for STEM courses, teaching empathy studies in engineering as a tool for innovation, and assessing engineering students’ agency to address climate change.

Spanish term for “remix”- encompasses the combination,manipulation and mixing of music or other cultural products in the creation of something new[1]. This idea also alludes directly to the concept of hybridization, which lies at the core ofLatinidad and the essence of Latin culture, both musically [2] and culturally [3]. Remixing isconsidered not only a contemporary art form that cuts across multiple creative areas of the digitalrealm [1], but also an educational tool that provides a culturally authentic and creative form ofengagement for students [4]. The benefits of remixing as an educational approach were central tothe philosophy behind the creation of EarSketch, a music mixing software platform andeducational curriculum [5]. EarSketch
