AMMP’s unique approach is at the program design. The program is organized into aseries of five parallel training sessions for mentors and mentees, each session addressing a singletraining theme: (1) effective communication, (2) researcher independence, (3) expectationalignment, (4) networking, and (5) individual development plan.

research highlights the profoundly social nature of design (e.g., [3], [4], [5]) whereinpersonal values, beliefs, and social practices infuse all aspects of the design process, bearing outin team interactions, design decision-making, and the final design products themselves. AsBucciarelli [3] states, “Design is, in process, a social process and it demands an account thatsearches for the true significance of technical constraint, values and norms on the form of theartefact in the everyday thought, expressed beliefs, and practice of participants” (p. 185). In thisway, ethical decision-making in engineering design is interwoven with these social processes [6],[7]. In collaborative design teams, members must negotiate understandings of ‘what is

While these dohelp raise awareness and provide opportunities for student to practice techniques to improve theirmental health, three key problems can be identified in leveraging only these interventions: (1)one week of heightened support does not suffice for an entire year, (2) attending events can addadditional time-stress to already time-stressed students, and (3) these events do not address theunderlying problems that led to mental illness within students [8].
