and technologicalrevolution based on the digital technology and artificial intelligence, which brings aboutthe adjustment of economic structure and the transformation of the labor market. Onthe one hand, it increases the demand for technical talents and provides moreopportunities, especially for engineering students. On the other hand, it also brings greatchallenges to them. Therefore, how to promote engineering graduates’ employmentquality has become one of the most important issues. Engineering education in colleges and universities assumes the important task oftraining engineering science and technology talents, and plays an extremely importantrole in promoting future scientific technological innovation and long-term
proven to nurture learning via practical projects,promoting collaboration, communication, safety consciousness, and critical thinking. Guidelinesof the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and the High-QualityProblem-Based Learning Organization (HQPBL), which include, but are not limited to:“Intellectual Challenges and Accomplishments”, “Authenticity”, “Public Product”,“Collaboration”, “Project Management”, and “Reflection” are followed. For this manuscript, ourprimary focus lies on “Authenticity”, which emphasizes the significance of PBL projects thatgenerate tangible benefits for individuals and communities beyond the educational environmentsof classroom and school.

during extracurricular club activities.When different ethnic groups were compared, it was found that our sample was in agreement withthe literature. Asian students showed significant difference in their STEM perception whencompared to other ethnic groups, namely Hispanic, Mixed and African American, however thissignificance disappeared among Club students. This might be due to the nature of the STEM clubsthat all students who are enrolled in any STEM club seem to show more similar STEM perceptionsdespite their ethnic backgrounds.The premise is that Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) exposurethrough extra-curricular clubs has an effect on minority students’ perception of STEM relatedcareers.Limitations and Future Work:It is

Usingunique ways to introduce information to their students through labs, and demonstrations, is a taskproviding teachers the opportunity to utilize their creativity. This demonstration is an example ofways in which teachers assists their students in making connections between advances in STEMand everyday life activities. This demonstration will also help students understand theimportance of the collaboration between different disciplines. The technique discussed in thispaper is one that is utilized by scientists and engineers to design new materials with newfunctionality that assists doctors in repairing tissue in the human body. One

difficult to identifyculturally-relevant tensions. Even as we broadened our literature to include Science, Technology,Engineering, and Math (STEM), there were not many that included student experience.Therefore, we expanded our literature to also include some sources that explored NHPI studentexperiences in higher education rather than just engineering.This broadening of scope warrants some cautions. Firstly, a Native Hawaiian Epistemology willbe applied to the variety of islands and cultures represented through the term NHPI. Althoughsome traditions and values are similar, these cultures cannot and should not be seen as identicalsince the lived experiences and histories of these cultures are different.
