Arduino, Python The didactic portions of the senior design course combines instruction to teachengineering design principles concurrently with student-led, team-based project work [14].Topics covered in instruction include project management strategies, the Biodesign framework,patents & engineering standards, FDA & regulatory landscape, professional ethics [13], and acustomer discovery series adapted from the NSF I-Corps program [30]. The semester consistsroughly of three phases: background research, design, and implementation. In the backgroundresearch phase, students research their project information and are directed to perform at least 3stakeholder interviews. In the design phase, students work on ideation and

Overall, positive attitudes, knowledge, and efficacy toward STEM were found.Introduction Today’s industries need engineering graduates who have a broad outlook on the world.This has prompted many institutions to give greater importance to skills such as interdisciplinaryteamwork, effective oral and written communication and social consciousness. In light of thesecriteria, many institutions are consistently striving to enhance their educational program in orderto prepare students to be competent ethical professionals and effective global citizens.

Cooperative Education Division of the American Society for Engineering Education, engineering studentscomprise approximately 75% of all co-op students which translates to 187,500 students completing co-ops inengineering annually using the 1998 census [27]. Given these high numbers of students around the countrycompleting engineering coops, it is important to study these programs and find ways to strengthen them and scalethem up across other STEM disciplines. In addition, co-op experiences provide a means for engineering programsto fulfill several outcome criteria required by ABET, including: an ability to apply knowledge of mathematicsscience, and engineering; an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility; an ability to

Four datasets were analyzed: two for Exam 1 (2022 Fall and 2023Spring) and two for Exam 2 (2022 Fall and 2023 Spring). These datasets contain aggregated itemanalysis reports that summarize question-level metrics such as Correct Ratio, Difficulty Index, andPoint Biserial correlations. No individual student information was included, ensuring the analysiswas entirely anonymized and ethically sound.The 2022 Fall data represent baseline student performance prior to the implementation of anyenhanced teaching strategies.

These should be shared with teachers and students at the start of the program. This helps to avoid confusion and inappropriate behavior.

Traditional graduate engineering training often lacks education aboutunderstanding engineering as a socio-technical endeavor while graduate engineering research isoften for graduate advisors to be presented in professional conferences, published in academicjournals, and eventually contributing to the output of a research lab. Even when graduateengineering education is complemented with ancillary “social” topics like research ethics orprofessional communication, it often lacks a concerted effort to view engineering as a socio-technical endeavor, which, as we propose, is a necessary precondition for effective communityengagement. Even when the research topic could be relevant to communities or
