project [14], we employed a longitudinal mixed methods study design toidentify the most common and severe stressors experienced by a cohort of students at oneinstitution. Drawing from the results of Year 1 of study and a review of the literature on graduatestudent stressors, we developed in Year 2 the Stressors for Doctoral Students Questionnaire forEngineering (SDSQ-E) and administered it twice, in fall 2022 [15] and in spring 2023. TheSDSQ-E measures the severity and frequency of stressors including advisor-related stressors,class-taking stressors, research or laboratory stressors, campus life and financial stressors, andidentity-related or microaggression-related stressors. In this update to the final year of ourproject, we will present a high

On the other hand, the importance in engineering of creativity, critical thinking, andthe ability to solve complex problems, presents an opportunity to maximize the potential of thistool and explore new ways to use it.Impact on Assignments The emergence of ChatGPT introduces several profound implications for engineeringeducation, reshaping traditional teaching methods and prompting a reevaluation of assessmentstrategies.

Education Experiential learning, most simply defined as learning by doing, can occur in multiplecontexts at the university level. For example, many undergraduates have opportunities for hands-on laboratory time, internships, and service-learning programs. Through these experiences,ideally four stages should occur: participating in the experience, reflecting about the experience,conceptualizing (understanding) what they experienced, and applying what they learned in asimilar setting [6]. When bringing experiential learning into the classroom, particularly within acourse focused on engineering design, it can integrate authentic learning experiences intostudents’ plan of study and daily lives [1].
