inacademia was a concern that was brought up by multiple participants. More specifically, theparticipants noted that there are inconsistencies in what credits transfer from military experienceinto an engineering curriculum. A couple of the assets that were brought up during the sessionincluded, “vet populations are diverse and understand diversity,” and that student veterans are“very task-oriented compared to peers.”Funding. Another concern for SVEs surrounds funding. Some of the participants brought up the“lack of transparent alternate funding,” and “only 36 months of funding (initially)”. Oneparticipant brought up “GI Bill Logistics” as a barrier to academic success for SVEs. Thiscomment sits in juxtaposition with the comments noting VA

Table 9 provides an overview of the recommendations from the report. Table 9 - What Universities and Community Colleges Can Do BetterThe following seven-point action plan to support the development of entrepreneurship and theinnovation talent pool: 1. Make entrepreneurship and innovation education a priority on every campus. 2. Develop and support a group of “innovation champions.” 3. Demand cross curriculum and interdisciplinary collaboration between students, faculty, universities and industry. 4. Invest in educating and

The lecture content covered a largevariety of topics but had its focus in room temperature materials and processes. An AdvancedComposites course was (and is) also part of the curriculum and focused more on classicallamination theory and elevated temperature materials and manufacturing process.The prerequisite for the introductory course is an introduction to polymers and processing thatmainly focused on the basics of polymer chemistry and thermoplastic materials. The goal of theintroductory composites course is to enable the students to understand the basics of

Our study aims to fill this gap by tracing the career long leadershiplearning journeys of 28 Canadian engineers with at least twenty-five years of work experience.Theoretical perspective: Situated leadership learningThe notion of situated learning is central to our investigation of senior engineers’ leadershiplearning experiences [52]. In contrast to the didactic learning opportunities students encounter inschool, which follow a pre-existing curriculum and are tightly mediated by an instructor, situatedlearning opportunities are shaped by everyday practices and left largely to novices forinterpretation. Lave and Wenger’s situated learning theory [52] highlights the type of learningthat occurs in

assistant professor in physics at the University of Maryland in the Physics Education Research (PER) Group. Turpen’s work involves designing and researching contexts for learn- ing within higher education (for both students and faculty). Her research draws from perspectives in an- thropology, cultural psychology, and the learning sciences. Through in-situ studies of classroom practice and institutional practice, she focuses on the role of culture in science learning and educational change. She pursues projects that have high potential for leveraging equitable change in undergraduate STEM pro- grams and she makes these struggles for change a direct focus of her research efforts. She also serves on several national
