With a dynamic market place, graduates need tobe able to interact effectively in diverse fields. One important goal of multidisciplinarydesign is to identify the many solutions needed to solve a single problem while keepingin mind the many differing objectives of the overall project [2] A multidisciplinaryapproach to engineering design is valuable in that it asks that students make certain that,“…advances in

On the other hand, directinteractions with users can help engineering students refine their understanding of their designproblem and keep user requirements in mind when generating solution concepts [7], [22], [23].In general, these previous studies have focused primarily on the outcomes of student designerinteractions with users. Few studies thus far have explored in depth how student designersperceive the role of user interactions in their design projects and how students’ perceptions mayin turn influence their approaches to these interactions.

In this course, students experiencedmultiple levels of uncertainty and instructors offered permission as part of the course design tosafely take risks, fail, and move forward. As a result, final products were much more innovativeand creative in nature than ideas presented at the beginning of the class. Students recognized theimportance of the challenges they faced (group dynamics, work dynamics, distaste for the coursedesign and overwhelming amount of group work, etc.) in moving through the creative designprocess.With that in mind, we look to student reflections, specifically those of the engineering students,to identify strategies that contribute to creative practice and to help students

activities. In alignment with previous research(e.g., [19, 20]), our findings also show that educators being exposed to technical skills andactivities may have motivated youth to consider future technology-oriented careers. Finally,educators and administrators viewed the open-ended approach to self-directed learning andexploration of topics beyond classroom time, which is built into the curriculum as a motivator formany youths to independently search online for solutions, advanced technical topics, andresources beyond the ones included in the curriculum.

These feelings contributed to overall student engagement in Part III, their MATLAB coding, and may contribute to persistence in the program. In their classic ethnographic study of 460 science, mathematics, and engineering (SME) students from fifteen four-year institutions from 1990-1993, Seymour and Hewitt found that the third most commonly-cited factor (36.1%) for switching out of SME was poor teaching by SME faculty. Poor teaching by SME faculty was also mentioned as a concern by 90.2% of all switchers and by 73.7% of non-switchers [24]. In their follow-up ethnographic study of 346 students from six four-year institutions, Seymour and Hunter observed that poor quality of STEM

The appropriate application of said DfX can provide a competitive edge to the firm whileproviding benefits to both the consumer and society[2].

With this contingency in mind, the measurement of self-efficacy can betied to a much larger social project. Most suggestively, Jaffee and Riley draw our attention tothe fact that it is in leaving engineering that some women express agency. We certainly need notaccept as final or desirable the departure of these young women from STEM fields, but if we areto understand the complex relationship between identity, self-efficacy, and equitableopportunities in STEM disciplines, such broadened definitions of what counts as self-confidenceand self-determination will be vital.
