’ growth.IntroductionUndergraduate research is a high-impact educational practice that has myriad benefits forstudents. According to the Council on Undergraduate Research, undergraduate research isdefined as “an inquiry or investigation conducted by an undergraduate student that makes anoriginal intellectual or creative contribution to the discipline” [1]. As stated in literature, studentswho engage in undergraduate research show improvements in thinking independently, thinkingcritically, putting ideas together, solving problems, patience analyzing and interpreting data,analyzing literature, conducting ethical research, writing, and communicating [2-10]. Studentsinvolved in undergraduate research also report outcomes that may translate to post-graduationsuccess. For

Prospective students must complete an on-demand, self-paced course on policy regarding cheating, ethical behavior, and integrity in assessment, whether proctored or not, as a prerequisite for admission. 3. Orientation seminars should be organized for university, college, and department freshmen, with instructors emphasizing the repercussions of cheating on the first day of class. 4. Assessments with a high risk of cheating should be low stakes, but students must understand that cheating is not worth the effort, despite the low stakes. 5. Instead of individual instructors

Thefocus on wholeness directs attention to the need to recognize black male students as wholepersons, including the influence of family (Brooms & Davis, 2017; Tolbert Smith, 2022).

Mostengineering programs define the core of engineering curricula as mathematics, science,engineering analysis, and design; however, students need more than just technical skills [2]. In2004, the National Academy of Engineering indicated that engineering graduates need to beprepared to address the complex technical, social, and ethical questions raised by emergingtechnologies [3]. In addition, at a recent department Industry Advisory Council (IAC) meeting,professional engineers indicated that entry-level engineers from our university have the technicalskills, but need further training in interpersonal and professional skills.

Similarly,visiting a potential employer site which employs many or all of the disciplines in the coursemakes it easier for students to envision how the skills they are developing will interface withthose of their peers in another discipline and how all the disciplines work together to developengineered solutions.One way that was simple to communicate which content “belongs” to a discipline was to usecolor codes on the schedule to show what activities/lessons apply to all disciplines(communications, ethics, engineering design process, etc.) and which are more specificallyfocused on a given discipline

Afterthe Second World War there was a significant transition in STEM curricula toward scientificintegration [3]. In the early 2000s the change in ABET requirements for ethics created anothersea change in engineering curricula [4].
