idea of doing research on one’s ownteaching [18] are both relevant. This idea has also been taken up (independently) in the US byAngelo and Cross [22], and Cross and Steadman [23]. The former concerning ClassroomAssessment Techniques (CATS), and the latter, classroom research. We are strongly influencedhere by the position of Patricia Cross, who claimed that teaching in higher education would notacquire status until teachers treated their classrooms as laboratories for research. The “new”discipline of engineering education research, the question of who should be doing it, and how itcan be accomplished with rigor has been discussed at FIE and ASEE since 2000 [24]. Takentogether, these essays argue that there is such a thing as a “scholarship of

University Katie Cadwell is an Associate Teaching Professor in the Department of Biomedical and Chemical En- gineering at Syracuse University, where she has taught Chemical Engineering core courses since 2011. After receiving Chemical Engineering degrees from the Missouri University of Science and Technology (B.S.) and University of Wisconsin-Madison (Ph.D.), she pursued a postdoctoral position in engineering education and outreach with the Interdisciplinary Education Group of the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center at UW-Madison. Prior to moving to Syracuse, she taught for several years at Madison Area Technical College. Her interests include development of engineering faculty attitudes and pedagogy

interview data, employing bothinductive and deductive analysis techniques. Four themes emerged: (1) the professoriate appearsdaunting due to the competitive nature of the job market and the academic environment, (2) thework demands of the professoriate are contrary to the work-life balance sought, (3) possessingresearch autonomy in the professoriate is highly attractive, and (4) the professoriate is perceivedas a calling for those who desire to teach and mentor the upcoming generation of engineers. Amore nuanced understanding of the appeal of the professoriate and the career decision-makingprocess of postdoctoral scholars may be an avenue to aid in diversifying the engineeringprofessoriate. The preferred presentation method is a traditional

empathize with undergraduate mentees [7]. Finally,depending on their own background and training, graduate students may also have culturalcompetency skills well suited to mentor students from diverse backgrounds [8]. As such,undergraduate students have been found to highly value, and sometimes prefer, being mentoredby graduate students and postdocs [6].Existing research has primarily focused on how mentees benefit from mentoring relationships. Inrecent years, scholars have begun to also study how graduate students and postdoc mentors areaffected. In 2009, Dolan and Johnson found that mentors experienced “cognitive andsocioemotional growth, improved teaching and communication skills, and greater enjoyment oftheir own apprenticeship experience” [5
