taught [5].Follow up studies that analyzed subsamples of Love et al.’s national data set [3,5] revealedsimilar safety deficiencies and safety items correlated with accidents according to individualstates [23-25] and regions [3,26]. One of those studies found that in comparison to other regionsof the U.S., equipment/machinery was involved in a significantly greater number of accidents inmiddle Atlantic (mid-Atlantic) P-12 engineering education courses. That study also found thatmanufacturing and construction focused classes taught by mid-Atlantic P-12 engineeringeducators had a significantly higher rate of accidents than the same course taught in other U.S.regions. However, there was no significant difference in the number of accidents that

to face with online teaching, hybrid modelshave less coverage. A unique opportunity for direct comparison of online and hybrid modalitiespresented itself in fall 2020 at a large Mid-Atlantic university. The engineering college teaches ageneral education course on the History of Engineering that is open to all majors. The course wasdeveloped about eight years ago and has been taught each semester and in several summersessions ever since. There are no technical aspects to the course; it covers the history ofengineering from the ancients to today, with an term paper at the end of the course that asksstudents to research and discuss a topic about the future of engineering.In fall 2020 two sections of the course were taught by the same professor

Previous work has demonstrated a correlationbetween the amount of discrete stressors (including academic and personal) and the quantifiedstress level of graduate students. However, more qualitative analysis is still needed to moreaccurately characterize the stressors graduate students face, and the coping mechanisms they useto mitigate the ill effects of stress.This paper seeks to answer the following research questions: (1) What elements of theengineering graduate student experience cause students stress? And (2) What methods of copingdo students depend upon to persist in engineering graduate education? To answer thesequestions, we surveyed graduate engineering students at a mid-sized Mid-Atlantic

There are also challenges to online learning, and these challenges are whatmotivates the desire to increase engagement. Even more so, the past two and a half years havemotivated many universities to temporarily transition from traditional in-person instruction tomostly virtual instruction. This transition involved developing new approaches to pedagogy aswell as student assessment. During this same time period, there has been an unprecedented growthin student usage of online support materials and support services.

This requirement isespecially pronounced in the mid-Atlantic region: a recent survey shows that in the GreaterWashington DC area 9% of job postings require clearance [19]. Many of our industry andgovernment partners list as one of their top workforce priorities to recruit clearable, qualifiedcandidates.
