throughout due to the team-based nature of the course. One example of cooperativelearning present in ENGR 111 is periodic peer evaluations amongst team members with respect toteamwork effectiveness. The ENGR 111 Cornerstone project is an example of project-basedlearning, where students work toward completion of a fully realized project. Finally, discovery-based learning is employed throughout ENGR 111 course lesson plans.In the Spring 2019 iteration of ENGR 111, students were surveyed a ten-point Likert scale on theirintentions to continue pursuing an engineering major. Students were then instructed to answer afollow-up question that asked the degree of impact their ENGR 111 experience had on their answerto the previous question. Out of the 440

2024Abstract In this paper, we present preliminary research findings regarding the impact of theMaking Academic Change Happen (MACH) curriculum. Engineering education graduatestudents who were enrolled in different doctoral programs were exposed to the MACHcurriculum in one of three settings: the MACH workshop in 2017 that included severalgraduate students among the attendees (faculty, administrators, etc.); the Emerging EngineeringEducators MACH workshop that was designed specifically for early career faculty and graduatestudents in 2019; and the National Science Foundation Revolutionizing EngineeringDepartments (RED) project change community monthly Zoom calls that occurred from 2015 to2023. In this paper, we focus on graduate student
. MethodologyParticipants The study involved elementary and secondary educators enrolled in the 3-credit graduatecourse entitled NanoEnvironmental Engineering for Teachers (NEET). Participants attended thecourse either in person, virtually, or in a hybrid format at one of the four university campusesthat offered the course. In 2018, 2019, 2022, and 2023, the course was fully in-person; in 2020, itwas virtual, and in 2021, it was in a hybrid format. Of the participants, 34 self-describedthemselves to be male, and 74 were female. Each campus had a different instructor, eachpossessing a unique teaching style and perspective. All NEET participants were invited toparticipate in the study; participation was voluntary, and informed consent was obtained from
). Essentially, one in every four 4-year HBCU institutionsexperienced a resignation or termination at the highest level. Presidents at HBCUs have asignificantly shorter tenure, with an average of 3.3 years, than those of other four-yearinstitutions, with an average tenure of 7 years (Kimbrough, 2017; Gagliardi et al., 2017;Washington Lockett, 2019). These changes have been deemed a “crisis” and an added challengeto the ongoing recovery efforts of many HBCUs that are disproportionately impacted by theglobal pandemic. Particular examples highlighting the extent of this crisis include the state ofMississippi, which saw four presidents leave their eight public institutions within one year(Moody, 2023).

comprise 10% of the sample of students who take remedial courses comparedto only 5% of the students who did not take remedial courses. Given the current low 9representation of URM students across engineering in general (ASEE, 2017, 2019; NSF, 2020),their relative representation in remedial courses makes examining the impact of these courses onacademic pathways even more important (e.g., Attewell et al., 2006; Bahr, 2010; Flores et al.,2014). In terms of academic outcomes, only 28% of remediated students declare engineering astheir major on time (by the end of their first year of college), compared to 69% of non-remediated students.

Engineering Students Change the WorldAbstractAs part of the ongoing work described in “Work in Progress: Transformation through LiberalArts-Focused Grand Challenges Scholars Programs” (from the ASEE 2019 Annual Conferenceand Exposition), a professor of environmental engineering and a professor of the history ofscience and technology collaborated to add a new liberal arts course to the engineeringcurriculum at Olin College of Engineering in spring 2019. That work suggested that studentslearn new ways of thinking, knowing, doing, and being through participation in a transformativeliberal-arts infused Grand Challenges Scholars Program.
