Engineering programs in mainstreamdisciplines such as civil or mechanical engineering often struggle to differentiate themselvesfrom their competitor peers.

The failure of the majority of men to acknowledge the well-documented issue of genderinequity in STEM makes men allies all the more important [40].

These discussions revealed that characterformation can take many forms and that assessment of these interventions remains challenging atthe classroom and university-wide level. This workshop has led to a working group at NotreDame to rethink the approach to character formation for engineering students across the Collegeof Engineering.

For astudent to be a self-regulated learner, they must develop an understanding and awareness oftheir learning and should be able to use that awareness to control their learning process [6].Self-regulation in students can be achieved through development of three metacognitivestrategies: Planning, Monitoring, and Evaluating [7].Instructors can use a variety of activities to promote students' metacognitive engagement,such as think-alouds, guided mastery, Socratic questioning, narratives (dialogue andstorytelling), concept mapping, and reflective writing.

The researchers further suggested that students’professional identity formation was shaped by multiple factors, such as their interactions withtheir family, peers, faculty, and employers [27]. Similarly, Villanueva and Nadelson [9]demonstrated that professional identity development was influenced by their experiences,personal and professional knowledge, and professional interactions.
