. Tech.leadership team administered a Qualtrics survey of past and current students (1999-2017) ofprofessional fee-based credit programs who have either graduated or were planned to graduate inthe spring of 2017. The survey asked each recipient to rate their interest in a new Doctor ofTechnology (D. Tech.) degree, on a Likert scale of 0 to 5, where 0 = no interest and 5 = veryinterested.Of the 978 surveys sent, there were 334 respondents (34%). Of the 334 respondents, 219 (66%)were either “very interested” or “interested” in the newly proposed Doctor of Technologyprogram. Of the 334 respondents, 80 (24%) said they “might have an interest” in the newlyproposed program. Figure 1 below depicts the number of respondents per Likert selection

implementation of ECE Discovery Studio was driven by two compoundingmotivations to address student needs. First, while the adoption of a threaded curriculum modelaffords students incredible flexibility in designing their own undergraduate degree program, theSchool needed to also provide students with a foundation to navigate the curriculum given itsmyriad choices. Furthermore, this foundational knowledge must extend beyond traditionalacademic planning. Students need to explore the broader field of electrical and computerengineering with respect to the “big ideas” in the discipline, relevant career options, and areas ofresearch to build an understanding of the fields of electrical and computer engineering in the realworld.Additionally, the School of

All purchasescharged directly to the department were made by the department chair via the one departmentcredit card. These were then shipped to the department and distributed to the teams by the courseprofessor. While this assured accountability of university funds, it limited the times the studentscould receive parts and work on their tunnels. While shipping times are a constraint that is out ofthe control of the department, the plan is to revise the purchasing process in order to reduce thelag time and stress of all parties involved. For example, with the current students all partsrequests were complied and

COVID-19 Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, we operated under two primary modalities: visiting localschools and hosting events on campus at the University of Michigan. The primary audience forboth types of outreach were middle school students. Though these formats varied in logisticalconsiderations such as space and equipment use, they shared key attributes of being highlyinteractive, employing standards-based lesson plans, and framing concepts to be relatable to“novice” audiences. A more thorough description of these modalities is described in AppendixA. With the onset of COVID-19 and the pivot to remote learning, we could no longer rely oneither of these models for our outreach activities, but instead sought to incorporate strengths ofboth

. It was found thatthe industrial engineering student projects studied attempt to solve problems from an academicperspective, a perspective which lacks the crucial, “authentic” factors that any real-worldengineering solution should have. Students hold greater emphasis on the use of the industrialengineering tools demonstrated in class, and their design plans follow the processes described intheir coursework despite the “limited breadth” in which the problem space is explored usingthose tools. The result of this study emphasizes the disconnect between the intended goal ofSenior Design as a demonstration of a student's ability to solve realistic problems and howstudents apply their academic knowledge to these realistic problems.In another study

In doing this, the study aims to address the followingresearch questions: RQ1 What are engineering students’ beliefs about using mental health services?

Because it is askill that experts, in contrast to novices, routinely employ in problem solving, a key strategy inteaching learners to “think like experts” is to scaffold metacognitive thinking [2][9].While there are multiple ways of conceptualizing metacognition, a common frameworkdistinguishes metacognitive knowledge (MK), which includes knowledge of and beliefs aboutpersons, tasks, and strategies, from metacognitive regulation (MR), which includes themonitoring, planning, evaluation, and control of one’s learning [10][11].

effective behavioral strategies to achieve them (Kuhl, 1992). An action-oriented person is able to enact planned activities that result in goal attainment, such as studyingin advance for an exam. State-orientation represents a break-down in cognitive regulation thatallows goal progress. This can occur in three ways: Hesitation is procrastination and havingtrouble starting something like writing a paper. Preoccupation is difficulty in getting back towork after a distraction, such as receiving a text from a friend. Volatility is stopping an activitydue to boredom or lost interest.
