'''Outcomes and Future Objectives'''
#Opportunity for students and profs to meet outside the classroom, and meet people in the same program but with a different perspective and experience.
#Build alliances between students and faculty.
#Provide a support network for students.
#Provide a learning experience on what universal design is, and what it means in the design of STEM classrooms and curriculum
#Look to improve engineering curriculum and find ways to incorporate UDL into the classroom and lab

Engineering design is fundamental to the engineering curriculum, so there is a need to ensure that the design curriculum -- especially the design classroom or lab --tries to address these issues to be more inclusive to all. The aim of introducing UD in classrooms (eg. in a design project form) is to build awareness and skills related to universal design and to improve inclusiveness and accessibility of the engineering design curriculum through resulting development of UD-ed ideas and products.
