Considering thatnearly 37% of the doctoral degrees in science and engineering are awarded to women, it shouldthen be alarming to discover that women make up only 9% of full professors in Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields2. Of course, it is only in recent yearsthat this issue has drawn some attention. The NSF’s Advance Program was created out ofconcern for this same exact issue. Because of the Advance Program, large universities such asIowa State University6, Rice University, University of Washington, University of Michigan,University of Wisconsin, and Virginia Tech are developing or have already developed policiesand programs to support, recruit, and retain

This deeper impactdistinguishes “academic impact” from the broader “academic wealth”. “Academic vision”involves not only seeing, but assimilating, the big picture of “why” engineering educators dowhat they do in addition to “how”, with an eye toward lasting value, contribution, and legacy.The paper will discuss recent trends 3 in engineering education, for example, technology in theclassroom, hybridization of
