enhancements in the 2019 RET summer program:1) to have workshops and research activities that are centered around the 3D CAD design and 3Dprinting, which are now readily available in most high schools, and we already made greatimpacts on the design and manufacturing education; 2) to put more emphasis on the connectionbetween the design and manufacturing research experience with the high school STEM coursemodule development so that the participating teachers would not only have more hands-onresearch experience, but also be able to kick-start the development of the suitable coursemodules for their students. The goal of the project was to host 12 high school teachers toparticipate in engineering design and manufacturing research and then transfer their

The first cohort of nine Global EngineeringPerspectives Scholars graduated in 2019, including students from five degree programs withcompetencies spanning five different languages.Motivation for the programGlobalization is driving the need for engineers to work effectively in international environments,and navigate differences across cultures [1]. Studies on intercultural competencies for engineeringstudents typically describe the benefit of such competencies as allowing them to work with peoplefrom different cultures in an increasingly globalized world.

again starting with the 2018-2019 freshman cohort. EGR-1200 would remain the same but EGR-1205 would be replaced with a course that eachdepartment would offer their students. The goal was to keep the class hands on and entertaining,but also add major-specific technical work. While departments are free to now introduce topicswhich could be required for later classes, it was hoped that the courses could still be generalenough to allow for students to transfer to other departments after freshman year. The ECEdepartment created their course, ECE-1205 which would introduce the students to Matlab as hadbeen done previously in the 7 week section of the old EGR 1205, but also introduce a new designarea specifically geared for ECE students, in which

President, Dr. Stephanie Adams,highlighted this issue, making graduate education a key initiative for ASEE in 2019 [5].Published studies of students in engineering doctoral programs in relation to professionaldevelopment tend to focus on the research experiences [6, 7] with an emphasis on theknowledge, skills, and abilities gained or on how students’ research skills change over time [8].However, the important question of how effectively the research experiences of engineeringPh.D. students prepare them for professional practice remains largely unanswered. In order tostrengthen the quality of research on engineering Ph.D. students are being prepared forprofessional practice, there is a need for high-quality assessments designed and
