He explains: I always tell my students you’ve got to be in the lab. You absolutely have to be in the lab. You can plan, you can do computer design and such, but until you get your hands dirty and really get a feel for what’s going on, you’re not going to have a good sense of what’s going to work and what’s not.Several participants noted an increasing connectivity between industry and academia, the resultof which was viewed by many innovators as good for the competitiveness of the nation and onethat helps both students and industry.

Students could also identify alternate sources ofknowledge that would be useful to solving the larger homelessness problem “(e.g., social policy,urban planning, nutrition science, distributive economics)” [17]. Furthermore, they could identifywhat assumptions need to be challenged (e.g., what percentage of homeless people are adults vs.children, veterans vs. non-veterans, or how many actually own a coat that provides sufficientwarmth). Finally, students could contrast how their solutions would differ using only

This educational experience is designed to expose the freshmen engineeringstudents to a variety of concepts and skills necessary for successful negotiation of theirengineering careers. The project encourages the freshmen to challenge their assumptions andconceptions of what an engineer is and does. Other knowledge and skills gained includeunderstanding and using the engineering design process, effectively working on engineeringteams, effectively communicating, planning and making decisions, all while solving an open-ended problem.

In this study population,this was a relatively small group (3 women and 1 man). What was similar among these fourparticipants was that both the man and women who expressed only controlled motivations alsodisplayed lower self-confidence regarding both engineering work and their career pathwaychoices than those participants expressing some autonomous motivations.For those participants who lacked the autonomous motivation, a universal expression of low self-efficacy emerged, particularly with regard to more technical tasks.

This is because students have control over their design and technology choices, butcannot do much about the MAE curriculum and have difficulty countermanding the adviceof the faculty advisor. Thus the authors embarked on a plan to remedy two issues with this situation: • the reliance on faculty to bridge students’ skill gap, • the inaccessibility of a pathway through the curriculum that allows students to build their skills to the level these competitions require.Addressing the first issue requires the faculty to download their knowledge to the students ina more formal way, other than individual coaching. Although it is reasonable to individuallycoach a student or students
