Traditionally,study abroad has been marketed as an opportunity to experience other cultures. For minoritystudents, this angle has not been effective as they interact across culture on a daily basis.19However, based on the research into the causative factors for under-representation, anopportunity to increase skill sets that can assist in persisting and doing well in their currentengineering programs as well as prepare them for continual lifelong professional success mightbe a better approach to encourage underserved minorities to study

there was a week inbetween each camp to allow for the preparation of materials, lesson plans, and venue. Alongwith research and student development, the main goal was to make a positive impact on studentlearning in STEAM through fun and engaging hands-on activities and challenges. Through theseactivities these younger students could perceive STEAM as something inspiring and fun andattainable; as the means to envision a career within the STEAM disciplines.We identified the activities, challenges, and expected outcomes but we had to design a structurethat could adapt and be flexible and scalable for both camps and for future Tech-E summercamps.

while the world has experienced a growth in the number of institutions andprograms teaching engineering, graduate numbers are not increasing accordingly because of alack of qualified faculty, necessitating an emphasis on faculty development, especially at the entrylevel [2]. Reviewing the literature shows the prevailing philosophy regarding facultydevelopment is rather obvious. Faculty development is an ongoing process that should not stop atany level of an academic career, from new hire to a seasoned professor. Khedkar attempts todefine faculty development in the university as: “the process which is undertaken to bring about qualitative changes in the competence of individual faculty members in fulfilling their obligations to

Therefore, proper training ofengineering students for their future careers must include experience in considering the impact ofnew technology on society. Educators must allow their students to practice this by allowingstudents to consider, evaluate and employ new technologies based on their societal impact.Solving tomorrow’s problems, engineers will employ new technologies. Engineering studentsmust learn to evaluate new technologies’ impacts as they employ them to solve tomorrow’sproblems.

During the past two years, the industry model of project management wasmore heavily emphasized and student design teams were required to self-select a member toassume the role of project manager.

While this is a contrast in how the capstoneis formed and students interact with larger capstone groups such as at Purdue University, thestudent experience at WCU and other institutions will provide a rich understanding of teambuilding and interaction throughout their solo and pair capstone experience.
