Visitingfaculty and students are recruited from a variety of institutions including minority serving, women’s,liberal arts, community colleges and other educational institutions. Selected qualified faculty applicantsattend a matching workshop in which both, faculty and Laboratory researchers briefly present theirwork, learn about potential research collaborations, engage in one-on-one discussions, and developcollaborative research proposals. Faculty who are matched to Laboratory researchers engage in anintensive summer research experience at the Laboratory with a few of their students or in some casessend students to engage in a summer Laboratory research

personal desire to broaden partici- pation of women and other underrepresented students, including students in rural areas and those who learn differently, in STEM education from pre-K through graduate studies. Her current work focuses on supporting and evaluating the construction of collaborative communities and building evaluation capacity within organizations and large-scale programs. In all efforts Adrienne works to (a) truly understand the purpose and needs for the evaluation or research undertaking, (b) develop feedback cycles that support continuous program improvement, (c) make implementation and impact data available and interpretable for program implementers, and (d) select the most rigorous, yet feasible

Physics and Astronomy and Director of the CASTLE Center for Advancing STEM Teaching, Learning & Evaluation at Rochester Institute of Technology. His educa- tion research includes projects on the development of identity and affiliation in physics majors throughout their undergraduate career, and, separately, how physicists express conceptual meaning in mathemati- cal formalism. He has co-directed the PEER faculty development program for four years, integrating emerging research projects into ongoing programmatic activities that seek to improve the retention of first-generation and deaf/hard-of hearing students in STEM disciplines. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019Improving

a third of the participants were from underrepresented racial or ethnicgroups. UD ADVANCE covered program registration, hotel, and meals costs for all participants.The program consisted of two sessions. The first was a two-day overnight residency off campus whereparticipants built community, networked, and learned new skills, such as leadership vision, motivatingothers, and having difficult conversations. Participants then completed individual assignments beforereconvening a month later for the second session, where they learned more skills and heard from a panelof women leaders from UD.Assessment data of the program were overwhelmingly positive. For example, despite the large timecommitment required of participants, 100% agreed that the

, intersectionality, theory, classroom intervention, reflectionIntroduction“Diversity” has become an important watchword in engineering education practice and research,a requisite for funding, research programs, and essential for publications. However, embeddedconcepts of race, class, and gender, have been undertheorized within engineering educationresearch and pedagogy, though such a theorization could greatly affect the work being done inthe field. This paper describes a course intended to help participants explore existing explicittheories of race, class, and gender, introduce participants to alternative social theories on theseconcepts in educational contexts, and help them learn to apply such theories to engineeringeducation research and engineering

sanitation, as well as sustainability solutions, through interdisciplinary approaches. Since joining the Olin College faculty she has also dived into the field of engineering education with an emphasis on integration of arts, humanities, and STEM. Her love of learning was first fostered by an unusual elementary school education that was deeply inter- disciplinary with a substantial arts curriculum. After graduating from Harvard University with a B.A. in Dramatic Literature, she worked professionally in theater and wrote and recorded two musical albums. She then returned to school to study engineering, earning a B.S. in Civil Engineering from Rutgers Uni- versity in 2011. While completing her degree at Rutgers, she wrote
