Such values mightbe self-realization, creativity and innovation, working with people and helping others.”14 For theengineering identity to resonate with civic-minded Millennial females, it must convey the roleengineers play in fostering a strong sense of community, both local and global.3.

Encourage a broader understanding among graduate students of the range of choices, opportunities and challenges that women must navigate, and of the impact of culture, community and context on women, whether in their personal lives, in higher education, or in the workplace. 2. Encourage and support the development of community among graduate students.The program met six times (approximately bi-weekly) during the spring semester of 2014 in alarge conference room in the College of Engineering.

. Early engineering graphicscourses are often students’ first exposure to professional standards, expecting them to applyconcepts, to choose critically, to qualitatively evaluate and to work harmoniously with theirhands and minds. Classroom experience shows that students are increasingly unable to gaugetheir level of preparedness and to participate effectively in classroom activities. Students arestruggling to visualize and sketch objects and processes, they are overwhelmed to employdescriptive geometry and to interpret two-dimensional representations of objects. The early andoften exclusive use of digital tools, as well as an emphasis on standardized testing, seems toleave students unprepared for the challenges they encounter in engineering

However, we improved the survey based on the responses andexpanded it outside engineering majors.Literature ReviewHofstede [2] defines culture as patterns of thinking, feeling, and acting that every human beingcarries. He analogizes culture as the “software of the mind” in that culture is a mental programthat is developed by social interactions and experiences collected across an individual’s lifetime.In his words, “the programming starts within the family; it continues within the neighborhood, atschool, in youth groups, at the workplace, and in the living community” (p. 6). In order tounderstand this culture, Hofstede developed a series of dimensions to characterize the commontraits and beliefs every individual has, with each dimension

problem seems to be in the fact that the academic foundation that should have beendeveloped over the years in K-12, is not at the level that is expected from incoming freshmen.This raises the question: how can engineering students receive adequate training if they are notcollege-ready? One has to keep in mind that one-year programs are likely unable to help studentscatch up on all K-12 skills and knowledge. The task seems even more formidable consideringthat study habits and academic attitudes are usually formed and solidified during K-12.Clearly there is no single remedy for the problem. Study habits, general attitude towardseducation, and academic preparedness need to be addressed. A solution for the latter issue maybe obtained by integrating
