A summary of the student’s perspectives of their global awareness regarding research within their fields for both pre-traveland post-travel is shown in Fig. 5. After their travel abroad, the IRES students felt that they had a better overall understanding of the global aspects of scientificresearch and how their topics are issues being worked out across the world. The students also felt more confident to conduct,work with, and present their research in an international setting.C.

Theother was in girls-only math clubs. Many of these girls had been unaware of careers inengineering or what that might entail. The latter group developed confidence and knowledge ofengineering areas that have traditionally been male dominated. However, the activities werenot sufficient to convince these young women that mathematics was a creative activity or that acareer in mathematics would be interesting.

In contrast to the 200-level experience, students earlier in their academic path aremore diffuse in 100-level math, physics, and chemistry courses that also serve other STEMmajors and include no direct instruction on how course content is relevant to their career goals.Opportunities to build community around engineering are up to individual students to seek out inextra-curricular opportunities such as student clubs. This challenge is amplified for most WCCengineering students who must complete 10-20 credits of prerequisite math and physicscoursework before credits apply toward their eventual Bachelor of Science degree.Table 1 illustrates the differential

Students learn the importance of standards in ensuring product quality, reliability,and safety, and develop the skills needed to apply these standards in their future careers. Additionally,exposure to technical standards in the classroom can help prepare students to work with a wide range ofindustries and sectors that rely on technical standards.

To some degree, any safety exposure is good exposure, but there remains a need to growstudents’ mindsets on safe practices and approaches to situations. Our aim with our consistent safety momentdelivery is to be more encompassing and engaging so that safety is always in their mind in some form.Approach to Delivering Safety Moments We start every class with ‘it’s time to start with a safety moment’ (students are audibly joining ourannouncement by the time we get to ‘safety moment’).

Does the use of service-learning, development engineering experiences increase compassion in engineering students towards those for whom the design should benefit? 2. Does the use of these types of experiences increase professionalism and quality of effort in engineering students? 3. Do any potential gains in engineering student compassion and quality seem likely to continue into their careers?Previous work on compassion’s role in engineering service-learningThere have been many service-learning projects in engineering, as the discipline lends
