. The goal is to provide insights that will help framefuture studies of students who do not value engaging with or belonging in their engineeringprograms to the detriment of their professional formation as engineers.Literature ReviewSense of Belonging and Persistence At a fundamental level, humans have the desire to belong. The desire for interpersonalrelationships has an additive effect on that desire. Previous research on students’ academicsuccess has primarily focused on the interaction between students’ sense of belonging,motivation, self-efficacy, and perception of curriculum [1], [2]. On the college campus andwithin STEM classrooms, several characteristics are known to commonly exhibit a positiveeffect on students’ sense of belonging

havedegrees in education and the social sciences rather than in ECE. Also, many professional academicadvisors tend to be women in a predominately male discipline. Thus the work of academicadvising is rendered invisible through gender, social background, education, and other factors.This paper discusses the work of creating a data-driven white paper to highlight the value ofprofessional academic advising in an electrical and computer engineering (ECE) department in theSoutheast United States. A qualitative culture and climate study of the ECE department initiallyrevealed the complexity of the ECE undergraduate student’s needs beyond the classroom andidentified how the professional academic advisors were the primary caretakers of these concerns.Though

of future ECXtopics that can invite civil engineering and technology faculty to explore how to synergize theirinstructional practices toward DEI-oriented institutional goals, rising to the call of several leadersin engineering education research to diversify the engineering curriculum to meet the societalneeds that 21st century engineers must support [20-22].The first of the spring 2022 ECX sessions was focused on student creativity. Participantsidentified many cognitive, motivational, and societal benefits to incorporating creativity intotheir own engineering courses. When asked about challenges, some common themes includedensuring technical knowledge and fundamentals remains at the heart of meaningful creativeengineering solutions, how to
.” Carson indicated that racial/ethnic underrepresentation in engineering leads to anarrowed disciplinary curriculum, “we need to think about diversity in our teaching, most of thefundamentals of engineering are based on Western knowledge, based on a European-centricviews of science and engineering. A broader worldview perspective would be good for students.”Having the safe space to conversate with their mentors engendered an enhanced comfortablenessin doing so with students.DiscussionThis phenomenological study (Moustakas, 1994) sheds light on how faculty use their ownexperiences as mentees to inform their faculty-student mentoring relationships. Each participantdiscussed how their mentor’s commitment to the mentoring relationship led to them
multidisciplinary teams as teams composed of memberswith specialized understanding, training, or experience in different disciplines who must worktogether to achieve a common goal. A multidisciplinary engineering team may be composed ofdifferent engineering disciplines alone, such as a device development team that includesmechanical, electrical, and computer engineers. A multidisciplinary engineering team may alsoinclude non-engineers, such as medical professionals, marketers, and financial managers. Thedistinction we are drawing between multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary for this paper is that“multidisciplinary” implies a team of individuals with discrete skill sets or knowledge areaswhereas “interdisciplinary” refers to programs, problems, and

lack representation forNative American students [7]. This repeatedly highlights the disparity of cultural diversity in manyuniversities, and subsequently, white-collar jobs.Another problem lies in the historically Eurocentric curriculum which ignores most minorities andtheir cultures [8]. This causes a mistrust between the historically Caucasian majority and peopleof color. In an act of self-determination, Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCU) were established,with most hosting two-year degrees [9]. The 39 TCUs primarily serve geographically isolatedpopulations, hours away from other mainstream postsecondary institutions. Despite significantprogress and a steady rise in enrollment, TCUs have funding that limits their ability to further

In some cases, these are included in coursework in ways where there may not be anatural fit in a typical lecture or lecture/laboratory course, or that appear to be contrived.Teamwork may consist of students put into groups based on proximity, with minimal instructionin how to effectively operate as a team; while this is indeed working within a group, it isarguably not effective teamwork [7]-[9].
