She described how she derived personal and professional meaningfrom her research: “I think it's a[n] interesting blend of, what you said, personal and research stuff…. I like to do outreach activities…. It's fulfilling and it makes me excited about, okay, I'm here to do research, and I'm going to encourage the next wave of people to do the same.” - AngelAs a result of this integration, Angel reported strong, permanent identification as an engineer, inspite of multiple sources of social pressure to do otherwise: “I do see myself as an engineer….

Some graduate programs will only admitnew students to start in this “fall” term, while others will admit most students in the fall and asmaller cohort in the January term. The “fall start” is assumed throughout this document, sincethat is the most common timeline; if you are applying to begin graduate school in a differentterm, you will need to adjust the timelines suggested here

attempt to increase student motivation in engineering courses. The genesis ofthis pedagogical innovation was in the fall of 2013. At that time, faculty from the Department ofEngineering Education and Leadership (E-Lead) taught a required Introduction to EngineeringLeadership seminar course. However, retention in that course was low and the students thatremained heavily critiqued the course. Because E-Lead seeks to emphasize student leadershipdevelopment by encouraging students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Engineering Leadership(BSEL) to take ownership of not only their education but also the education of their peers, thefaculty offered the students critiquing the course an opportunity to perfect the curriculum andinstructional methods

by teaching at least one graduate course per year.ConclusionTo start and maintain a successful graduate program in Technology, several factors need to beconsidered. An initial environmental scan will help the program to set a curriculum whichaddresses the need of prospective students and employers. The program needs to distinguishitself from an engineering graduate program by having courses on managerial/leadership skills aswell as courses on decision making skills, in addition to technical courses, as part of thecurriculum. A step-by-step approach in growth, by slowly expanding the program, will help theprogram flourish as the offering becomes broader and therefore addresses the needs of a broaderconstituency.

qualitative interviews withunderrepresented minority engineering students. These allowed us to explore their classroombelonging experiences and showed that classroom belonging is a familiar concept and a functionof two separate sources of belonging: academic belonging and social belonging. Academic self-efficacy, curriculum content motivation and an ability to share academic struggles with otherswere important contributors to academic belonging. Social similarity, successful teamexperiences and a general sense of caring were also considered helpful to building socialbelonging in the classroom. Implications and ideas to build engineering classroom belongingfrom this research are discussed.Key Concepts: social belonging, engineering identity

preparation in mathematics, which has been shown to predict student success in engineeringschool [1, 2, 3]. It is also widely acknowledged that calculus in particular is a significant barrierfor many undergraduate engineers, because many students who do not perform well in their firstsemester of mathematics do not stay in an engineering major [4, 5]. This is a significant challengefor all engineering schools, since calculus is the basis for higher level engineering concepts, andis therefore generally taught at the beginning of engineering programs. It is important to study first year student retention in engineering programs because of thelarge number of reasons that students may leave in their first year. However, it is also important tolook

therapeutics.Dr. Jon D Koch, Trine University c American Society for Engineering Education, 2017IntroductionNumerical problems and exercises are foundational to the education of students in natural science,technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) and have been a central feature in the curriculum ofthose majors. The effort that students put forth in solving these problems is a prerequisite for the studentsunderstanding and problem solving ability. Learners can mislead themselves in thinking they havemastered a topic, if they look at the solution to a problem before they expend sufficient effort in solvingthat problem. This self-deception can have a negative impact on student learning4. The temptation tolook at the

mathematical thinking are characterized as analytical skills, in this study. Engineersutilize these analytical skills to develop and assess solutions for feasibility, efficiency, andcorrectness. Schoenfeld 3 defines mathematical thinking as a culmination of an individual’s“mathematical knowledge, their ability to apply mathematical problem solving strategies, theeffective use of cognitive resources, having a mathematical perspective, and engaging inmathematical practices.” See Appendix A for a list of observable mathematical aspects.Engineering curriculum is largely designed around a core mathematics curriculum, whichtypically begins with Calculus and concludes with Differential equations.
