AB  - The EECS Design Student Community of Practice in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Oregon State University is a program in its 6th year of development. Educational researchers and engineering education faculty have conducted best practice research and program evaluations to drive program development, and several papers have been published in the past to present the results of these studies and implementation efforts. In the most recent program year (2022-2023), more than one hundred students opted to participate in the program's 9 events and online resources. This report details the implementation of the program in AY 2022-2023, including application of best practice research, events hosted, and resources developed to serve the student community. In addition, results of a participant survey being conducted in the current program year (2023-2024)  will allow the author to explore impacts of the participation in the community on career preparedness and sense of belonging, particularly among students who identify with underserved populations in the electrical and computer engineer major on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or first-generation status. The survey results (still in progress) will allow the researcher and program developer to determine what the  most important impacts of the program are among these students and to make recommendations for future program development.
