university as well as by others, such as parents and friends. In this paper, we report theresults of the analyses of longitudinal data during various times within the study period. Thedependent variable, retention, is calculated as the number of students who both stayed in theiruniversity and in their major. The three efficacy forms consist of work, career, and academicself-efficacy, signifying the confidence that students have in their own success within theworkplace, within their chosen engineering career, and within the classroom, respectively.Contextual support was measured as the support provided to students during their college careersthrough a number of mechanisms, in particular, through financial aid, mentors, advisors, family,friends

Opportunities through Education by 2015(EcO15), was created in 2008 to address that deficiency. The main objective of the initiative wasto move residents up one level in their education, training, and/or job placement. One of theprogram’s primary successes was bringing Project Lead the Way (PLTW) programs and classesto every public high school in the ten-county region. PLTW is a pre-engineering, high schoolcurriculum that promotes engineering careers through a rigorous curriculum of engineeringdesign and analysis. Since 2008, student enrollment in PLTW classes in this mostly rural, 10-county region has increased over 900 percent while overall STEM enrollment has increased 30percent. High school graduation rates have also increased over that period from

Throughexternal, off-campus projects, faculty members gain experience and continuously develop theirexpertise, providing personal and institutional benefits.According to a 2006 study by Anderson and Olsen, there are four factors that influence anindividual faculty member’s perspective on personal professional development, including:1) their development stage in the career cycle, 2) the institutional framework of their employer,3) the need to access collaborative opportunities, and 4) the willingness to assume newresponsibility. Faculty’s focus on professional development is typically formed into threeprimary objectives: 1) gaining experience in their own discipline, 2) teaching skills, and 3

results collected during the internship are analyzed, written-up, and presented for the thesis.Although this is an ideal arrangement in many respects, when the subject matter is competition-sensitive, it can place obstacles in the path of student publication. We have reached a workablesolution by embargoing select thesis publication on a year-by-year basis with companyoversight. PSPE students enroll in a seminar that has been designed to better prepare them forcorporate culture and expectations. Two of the PSPE related faculty had extensive careers withTI prior to joining the faculty at TTU. Their insights and experiences are conveyed during theseminar. In addition, students who have already interned present their experiences to the newstudents

Recruiting the Best Interns While the candidate interviewing and selection is beyond the scope of this article, there are some responsibilities to ensure the organization gets the best candidates. It is important to identify educational institutions that have the candidate pool with the academic backgrounds and skill sets that you need in your interns. The business can then work with faculty and students with projects, get involved with student organizations8 and develop relationship with the school to establish their brand. Additionally, the organization could also develop relationships with career center or internship

In the author’s program,students self-form teams that are then required to find and partner with one or more professionalswho mentor the team throughout the course. A mentoring agreement is prepared, outlining theexpectations of student team and the mentor, how they will communicate, schedule/timeline(including turnaround time), etc.Students and especially student teams are a regular feature of the IAB meetings, and facilitaterecruiting mentors from the board. Typically, at each meeting there is some form of studentpresentation, such as one from a new course or a team

What’s important? What’s not important?” is needed to helpthe team “refocus” their efforts. He notes that this is a “legitimate concern” becauseotherwise the team will be “scattered and have a lot of different things going on.”Therefore, a crucial aspect of the big picture thinking is “understanding the overarchingproblem that you’re trying to solve, and then being able to draw from all quadrants onwhat could be an opportunity or a solution for that.”Chris describes a decision at one point in his career
