factors.Part 4: Wrapping up the interventionWe concluded the intervention by reflecting as a class on major takeaways. For example, beingmore “aware of our unawareness” as engineers makes us better engineers. In this part, we alsoconnected back to textbook topics on mitigating errors, biases, and assumptions in problemdefinition; promoting ethical behavior in engineering; and the engineering design process as awhole. With the few remaining minutes, we opened the class to questions for Practitioner 2 aboutthe unconscious, psychoanalysis, and his professional experiences. Many students took us up onthis offer and we ended the intervention with an engaging discussion that extended these topicseven further

Demonstrate the effectiveness of this modified instructional approach in addressing stagna- tion in content delivery, preparing students for the rapidly evolving field of computer science.In a field as rapidly changing as computer science, modifications to the methods of instruction mayhelp intrinsically prepare students for this rapidly changing ecosystem.Theoretical FrameworkConstructivism as an educational theoretical framework has often been applied to the sub-field

mechanical engineering suggests a movement in the field towardsmore a more customizable view of what constitutes fundamental knowledge for doctoralstudents. This shift towards greater customization and personalization also reflects the potentialfor more equitable assessment in preliminary examination formats, as movement away from aone-size-fits-all standard exam model to instead flexible and unique exam strategies suggests thataccommodations for student differences can be recognized rather than ignored or hidden. As thejourney to complete a doctoral degree is undoubtedly personal and one-of-a-kind, incorporatingpersonalization in each step of doctoral examination is consistent with the desired eventualspecialization in individual research

Graduate studentsmust be able to explore, reflect, and learn in a culturally sensitive, safe, and respectfulrelationship with their mentor [14], [17].Perhaps no mentoring relationship is more important in a graduate student’s degree than therelationship with their faculty advisor. Faculty advisors can “make or break” a graduate studentexperience by providing or withholding financial, professional, academic, and even emotionalsupport to their mentees [11], [18], [19].
