The group of faculty and students began meeting every other week to discusstopics specifically related to STEM education and the needs of graduate school in lieu ofattending the general engineering seminars. This new seminar series covers multiple topicsapplicable to students in STEM education, including developing a plan of study, writing andpresenting a proposal for a dissertation, and on-campus graduate

The infusion of diversityinto the field of civil engineering in the United States yields numerous advantages, including amultifaceted project perspective, heightened project value, the enrichment of knowledge, talent,and ideas, access to expansive networks, and the production of superior final products necessaryfor global competitiveness in infrastructure [2].

A more recent study showsthat roughly 39% of matriculating chemical engineering students are women – the highest of anyengineering discipline [2]. Yet, the discipline still falls short of gender parity, even at theundergraduate level, while other disciplines, such as biology, now see classes that may bemajority women [3].

The Johnson and Johnson model on socialinterdependence theory [5] incorporates 5 essential elements of co-operative learning: positiveinterdependence, individual accountability, promotive interaction, appropriate use of socialskills, and team evaluation. It is generally found that more well-defined cooperative learninggroups with strong positive interdependence work the best for student engagement and learning[9]. Collaborative learning refers to an active learning environment in which studentscollaborate in small groups towards a common goal [1], but groups are generally less structuredthan in co-operative learning

Theproblem of choice between engineering and the physical sciences is compounded by the entrancerequirements from high school being similar for both fields since engineering and the physicalsciences are similarly grounded in the mathematical, computational, and natural sciences.
