IntroductionCapstone design courses provide a major design experience for engineering students, usually during theirfinal year of undergraduate study. Although these courses are common across engineering programs inthe U.S., they vary substantially in the way they are implemented. The first nationwide survey ofcapstone courses was conducted in 1994 in an effort to better understand current practices at the time.1This was followed in 2005 by another nationwide survey2 using many of the same questions to update thedata and also to capture trends over time; the 2005 survey repeated many of the

IntroductionEngineering is a continuously growing field with the advent of new technologies and increasingneed for products. The field of biomedical engineering, which encompasses multipleengineering disciplines, is growing at a faster rate than most other STEM disciplines, and thus itseducation is demanding greater attention 1. As most engineers in the biomedical field will gainemployment in a healthcare related field, it is important that they are able to empathize with theirtarget user – often handicapped and/or elderly individuals. This is further exacerbated by theincrease in the number of handicapped and elderly individuals in the United

They speculate that the U.S. will need 1 million additional STEMprofessionals than we will produce over the next 6-10 years. How can higher education helpmeet this demand if there’s simply not enough supply? Does it all revolve around building theSTEM pipeline or are there other ways we can add to the supply? Universities have beengrappling with this issue for years. Not only is it difficult to find students with the rightbackground, it is difficult to find ways to get others who want to become students thebackground they need within a reasonable timeframe.

Studying previous social justice movements can provide some examples ofkey principles such as ending systems of oppression like racism, colonialism, classism, ableism,sexism, heterosexism, gender normativities, xenophobia, ageism, and others; resisting thesystematic silencing or discrediting of local knowledges and scientific counter-knowledges thatchallenge dominant ways of thinking, knowing and doing

The pathways metaphor isconsistent with the literature.2,3For round 2 of the Delphi study, the prompt was changed to “pipeline and

In order to conduct research on how people learn, it is prudent to set a foundation oflearning theory that is relevant to the research questions of any given study. More emphasis isbeing placed on learning theories within the constructivist paradigm, that the learner is not just apassive recipient of knowledge, but is constructing knowledge actively and in different ways [2-4].At present, there is no one comprehensive learning theory by which all disciplines may operate,because each theory has its own applications and limitations. The corollary of limitations oflearning theory is that there is no one research
