, a midwestern STEM-focusedinstitution, received an internal grant to develop a class in research for undergraduates. Thisclass, which is designed to be offered online either for cohorts or for individual students as anindependent study, contains information and resources on a diverse range of issues such asmotivation for research, research ethics, planning a research project, conducting literaturesearches, experimental procedures, keeping lab documentation for various types of projects, dataanalysis, technical writing, intellectual property, and issues relevant to scoping out one’s ownresearch project.This paper will give the background for the course development, evaluation of the requiredcontent and decisions on structure and format, and

andconducting research from locations in time zones around the globe. The learning goals for thiscourse were developed such that students who participated in the course would: • Learn about research mentoring styles and build skills for communicating about goals and expectations with research mentors • Examine and apply time management skills for balancing academic, research and personal goals during college • Gain an understanding of the structure of research literature and develop skills for identifying and organizing appropriate references within their field of research • Explore methods for documenting and disseminating research results in engineering • Learn about ethical practices for research, and be able to articulate key

improvement in learning through the taking of personal responsibility forthe outcome; a knowing of how to learn complex material; an enhanced capability for problemsolving; a deeper analytical thinking; and an increased commitment to their discipline. Studentswith professional practice backgrounds also exhibit improved employability traits compared totheir colleagues, including: elevated work ethic, enhanced social development, improved projectplanning skills, and advanced interviewing skills [34]. Finally, it has been suggested thatprofessional practice students develop a stronger ethical sense, a deeper awareness of who theyare, and an improved understanding of their own self, over their peers without relevantprofessional work experience [35

Professional responsibility is modeledand practiced throughout as timeliness, respect, appropriate dress, appropriate language are allmade explicit with continuous feedback coming from faculty and staff. Teamwork skills areprovided in seminars and practiced in design teams. Multiple workshops per week address topicssuch as: inclusion, ethical action, leadership, reflection, management, happiness, life-workbalance, overcoming adversity, and communication. Each week during the EDP students writethree one-page learning journal entries, most of which are reflective prompts from some aspectof professional learning. These student reflections related to professional

Although most students at this institutionparticipate in experiential learning, the framework aims to provide students with richer, moremeaningful experiences through intentional engagement and reflection. Through several informalconversations, both students and employers have expressed the need for students to reflect andbe able to better communicate the value of their experiences in relation to their technical skillsand career aspirations. This point is reinforced by recent industry reports which emphasize thedifficult time employers have in finding

than relevant to industrial design experiences [26]-[30]. Traditionalcurricula have limited potential for real-world project-based learning opportunities in comparison tointegrated curricula and co-curricular activities. Furthermore, some research [5], [31]-[34] suggestsaligning pedagogy to authentic industry related/driven projects enhances employability [35].Fisher [36] commented that co-curricular activities present an opportunity for students to developprofessional skills that include teamwork, ethics, communication, life-long learning and the socialimpact of engineering. Research on the higher level impact on student involvement in specificco-curricular programmes show favourable development of professional and technical skills [37]-[40
