importance of society inengineering design. A few of the papers defined the steps of the design process and includedsocial elements such as “identify a design need” and “research a design need” (A3, p.74). Thesewould need to be further defined in order to ensure students were properly considering the needsof their users and the impact on society. For example, one paper further defined the outcome tobe “Appreciate and consider the non-technical constraints (ethical, political, aesthetic,environmental, economic, cultural, etc.) in their work” (A5, p.2).Many of the findings which came out of the research also reflected on the importance offurthering this connection to society. For example, one of the authors recommended to “engagedesign coaches to help

There were in-class writing exerciseson independent learning and ethics, and these exercises provided further opportunities forreflection and self-awareness. In the independent learning module, students wrote narrativesabout their career and personal plans, their experiences in the class, and independent learningthat they needed to do to meet their long-term goals. In the ethics module they were asked toreflect on ethical and professional behavior and how that behavior influenced their capstoneexperience.Similar to the “assess and adjust” exercise, as mentioned previously, the first author conductedmid-term evaluations where she asked students about problems in their teams and in the course

The costs have been due to stress from thenew position.Panelist 4: As far as I am concerned, it is all benefits. Many times at the university, I would tellmyself "Money and power are not important." I told myself I was changing the lives of thestudents I influenced. I do believe that was true and I was an excellent educator and mentor, butthis decision to leave was for me! The Naval Surface Warfare Center appreciates all of myskills. The DOD briefs I am a part of are fascinating and the nature of the problems we have theopportunity to try and solve matters!

Steps toensure anonymity included assigning codes to mask any personal identifiable information thatcould be traced back to each participant. Steps to safeguard confidentiality in addition toassigning codes to each participant included the storage of any personal identifiable informationin a separate file (e.g., demographic information, student identification number, etc.) andsecurely discarded once the data collection had been completed.

of the Predictors of Intentional PersistenceData and MethodsData The stated hypotheses were analyzed through original panel data. We sampled 279students at the University of Toronto - a major Canadian university that facilitates extensiveeducational programming in ML/AI. This includes undergraduate and graduate engineeringstudents. Students in ML/AI courses that were offered as part of an official ML/AI academicspecialization were invited to participate in the survey. The study was reviewed and approved bythe University Ethics Review Office. Data was collected through paper surveys distributed inclasses. The survey was open to students in any year of study but mostly students in Year 3 – 4and in their graduate studies as they
