Frank Ackerman has 50 years of experience in all phases of software development. In 1985, he founded the Institute For Zero Defect Software to do applied research, consulting, and training for software de- velopment organizations seeking to improve the reliability of their software. His personal experience has lead him to the conviction that today’s development organizations can achieve significant improvement in software reliability for a small increase in effort. Some of his current research and educational activities are focused on improving current specification, coding, test

c American Society for Engineering Education, 2012 Modeling Student Success of International Undergraduate EngineersModeling student retention using entering secondary school academic performance metrics onlyis limited at best. Past research has shown that these variables can be somewhat informative, butare not the whole story. In order to expand our understanding of successful students, defined inthis study as students who are retained and ultimately graduate with a degree in engineering,student retention and graduation modeling has been extended to include not only secondaryschool academic performance, but also self-reported affective and attitudinal measures.

ABET requires that an accredited engineering program must document studentoutcomes that demonstrate “the broad education necessary to understand the impact ofengineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.”1 Theselearning outcomes should provide the foundation for establishing the desired global skills andqualities that will prepare students for success upon graduation. Numerous sources indicate thebenefits of achieving global awareness through actual international experience.

Service-learning comes as close as anything I’veever seen to being a panacea for higher education. It has a powerful effect on students and apowerful effect on the teacher.” (Alexander Astin, Director, HERI, UCLA, remarks April 21,2004, at Emory University).MethodologyThe basic research question here is what impact this service-learning approach has on studentattitudes and their resulting performance.

We have learned that there is a large pool of outstandingstudents who will seek out this degree once it is offered, and who have as alumni drawn stronglypositive reviews from their employers.Students in the program, a cross-section of the best and the brightest, are drawn to the notion thatmanufacturing is how technological advances and innovations become rooted in a nation'seconomy.

Engineers that cannot operate a caliper or micrometer correctly as basic engineering tools degrade confidence.• Validation processes are a critical knowledge gap. Most manufacturing processes require validation for new installations. Statistical evidence of machine capability is required for this process. In the growing technical manufacturing of our state this is critical for manufacturing engineers (all medical, lithium-ion battery, most automotive, etc). It is generally a best practice of manufacturing engineering as a means of documenting your process as being ready for production.• Basic and

The trend in the automobile industry is of increasing integration ofsoftware with digital and mechanical systems. Areas of impact range from vehicle power plantcontrol to that of integrated entertainment systems complete with Internet access. The sheer bulkof code integrated in a typical vehicle is pushing the engineering of software systems out of theproprietary realm and into software engineering mainstream where the automotive industry mustadapt best practices for control of software system reliability and complexity.

Abstract The low recruitment and high attrition rate of women in engineering is well documented.Women account for only twenty percent of the entering class cohort, and drop out at a rate tenpercent higher than their male counterparts.1 Although in the past twenty years women havemade inroads into many fields that were male-dominated, women have made little or no progressin engineering.1 This paper has three goals. First, this paper will review existing literature that identifiescurrent and alternative theories about why engineering programs do not retain female students.Second, this paper will synthesize motivational psychology research into a best-practice modelfor engineering programs.
