Despite this growing attention and acknowledgment of the need toimprove graduate education in engineering, cultures and practices in these spaces are seldomcharacterized as welcoming. In response to the above calls, this study explores the engineering graduate student’sexperience, focusing on their perceived stressors or challenges, while considering the student’sdegree and citizenship status. This study is situated in a three-year effort to develop andimplement a mandatory graduate seminar course focused on promoting equity in STEM at anR1, research-intensive university in the Mid-Atlantic U.S. The following sections will

Given their level of assimilation both in physical presentation and in ideals, thesestudents too made a choice.MethodologyData were collected as part of a larger study of engineering undergraduate students from fourdistinct U.S. Universities whom initially enrolled during the 2003-2004 academic year.

Page 13.585.2In 1998, the awarding of an NSF Grant entitled “Integrating Engineering Design with theHumanities, Social Sciences, Sciences, and Mathematics” was the initiative for a major revisionof the curriculum of all of the engineering programs1,2. The emphasis of this grant was tointegrate design throughout the curriculum. This was accomplished by (i) Redesign of thefreshman engineering course by incorporating Integrative Learning Blocks by involvement offaculty from engineering, mathematics, physics, humanities and social sciences; (ii) Creation of anew engineering sophomore design course that

The listings were analyzed to find representation of Student LearningOutcomes (SLOs) as well. It was observed that job responsibilities represented more SLOs thanthe qualification sections. The findings from this study could be used by institutions to bringtheir construction management programs up to current industry expectations. Recent andupcoming graduates can use these findings to understand the skills they need to possess to workin their desired positions in construction.IntroductionConstruction graduates usually occupy a plethora of professional positions within
