’ green mindset development, environmental awareness, andconsideration of using sustainable practices in their future professional career. All of the students said thatnot only they themselves choose to use clean energy whenever possible, but also they would like to promoteusing green energy among their peers and to their clients, or to keep energy efficiency in their mind fortheir future engineering designs.Higher education institutions have a remarkable impact on shaping students’ mindset. According to Bowen[10], the impact of high education in adult life lasts an average of fifty to sixty years after graduation. Itmeans the “green” mindset developed through this junior design class will influence the future engineersfor their entire career

An effective mentorshipstructure supports the mentee’s growth and development by using multiple mentors for academic,career, and psychosocial support functions.For the mentees, a buy-in on the mentor’s credibility is necessary to understand the mentor’smotivation for sharing information and experiences.

largelyunchanged since 2003 [3]. Findings regarding math and science interest and confidence seem toconvey a similar story; in one study, while science interest remained unchanged throughout astudent’s high school years, significant losses occurred in science confidence and math interestand confidence during these years [4]. These are alarming results, as these high school levelmath and science courses act as gatekeepers to STEM degrees and careers. One step towards overcoming this issue is to develop an understanding of what impacts astudent’s choice to attend college and to major in a STEM field. It is well understood that astudent’s interest in STEM develops through exposure at an early age [5]. While this interest ismaintained through middle

Communication is widely misunderstood, and while this is perhaps especially truein STEM disciplines, STEM is not alone in their misconceptions. Outside of CommunicationStudies, Interpersonal Communication (IPC) tends to be treated as a personality trait (Okoro,Washington, & Thomas, 2017; Pert, 2019), and on popular career websites and in professionalcontexts alike, is most often defined in terms of “people skills,” “personal skills” (Doyle, 2021),or even “friendliness” (Indeed, 2021). IPC is also frequently discussed as a set of traits that areinherent to a person.However, the role of IPC in everyday professional communication is much deeper and morecomplex than cordiality; it is essential to functionality and effectiveness across disciplines

Without a strong foundation in math concepts and underlyinggoverning equations, engineering students will not understand more complex, higher-level concepts in theirfuture graduate studies and future careers. When teaching mathematically intensive engineering courses,professors usually show detailed derivations of theorems, principles, and governing equations todemonstrate how theorems, principles, and governing equations are obtained.However, during this process, engineering students often feel bored and disengaged because examples ofhow the educational content is applied in their daily lives are lacking [1].

Engineers spend almost two thirds of their overall work time onsome form of written or oral communication [1]. Of that, half the time is spent on writtencommunication – preparing proposals, reports, memos, feasibility studies, white papers,operating manuals, engineering specifications, business letters and responding to emails. Rhodes[2] summarizes it well in his paper that “Long after most professional engineers have ceased tointegrate a differential equation, they are still required to write technical reports”.
