INTRODUCTIONWe describe the changes taken place to broaden the participation of URM (underrepresentedminority) students at UTA (the University of Texas at Arlington). Women in certain STEM(Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields are still underrepresented, andhence we also describe the changes taken place to include the participation by women. Inparticular we describe the changes taken place in the Mathematics Department at UTA, theupdate on deliberate efforts started in the fall semester of 2005 and how three

It will be acomplex engineering problem, since they have to design the digital circuit using hardwareprogramming in VHDL and implement it in the FPGA board. They need to collaborate in a team,evaluate technical feasibility, and work toward the due dates.

The lifetime of student teams is short,and the team building training is only effective if the interaction between the team members canrapidly be brought to a meaningful state.The context in which we have faced this problem is in teaching a project laboratory in theDepartment of Chemical Engineering at MIT in which students work on a project in groups ofthree.
