) skills like being able to lead a team and proficiencyin change management are central to career advancement. This difference in perspective existsbecause entry level engineers are novices while senior engineers are experts. The goal of thisstudy is to identify how the transition from the novice stage to the expert stage can be expedited.To do so, the researchers will be interviewing engineers at six different aerospace companieswith four to twelve years of work experience who fall somewhere between the expert and novicestages. Interview questions will cover what challenges they faced entering the workplace, howthey tackled them, and what made them feel like engineers during this process. Theseinterviewees were chosen because they have graduated

responsibility as career role models for the students.Given that not many students have the goal of a career in academia, liaisons must be mindful thatthey represent the professional life to which many students aspire. As role models, students willclosely observe the care liaisons put into projects and likely mirror their effort. For example, astudy from the 2012 Capstone Design Conference had two panels of students from multipleuniversities who had recently concluded their industry-sponsored capstone course [12]. Thesepanelists concluded that students tend to do just the amount of documentation expected byindustry: if their sponsor expected less, the team did less. The panelists also described howliaisons “strongly motivate the student group” and how

The framework of essential topic areas was then used to find professionaldevelopment resources from institutional career services, literature, and professionaldevelopment articles. Based on the located resources, a grounded theory approach was used todevelop criteria applied to the gathered resources to determine the “best” to share as exemplarswith students as they prepare to meet with employers. For each topic area, a content analysis wasperformed on over 20 institutional resources and over 20 professional development articles andliterature resources. The four criteria that emerged from the data using the grounded theoryapproach were used to split the resources into categories and allow for comparison

career development. Frequently identity is related to the retention construct [2],depending on initial motivation to select a specific engineering program, persistence duringthe career, and a successful career in the industry. Regarding initial motivation, engineeringand STEM identity in elementary students can positively influence the perseverance to get adegree [3]. However, engineering programs also can affect the professional identity of theirstudents over the previous motivation for the program selection. E.g., in Burleson et al. study[4], a link between the change in professional identity was positively related to persistenceand embeddedness. Both constructs have been associated with the permanence of people intheir jobs and occupations

The ultimate test ofstudent success is how well a student is able to adapt to their new environment upongraduation, whether it be industry, graduate school, research, or entrepreneurial.Despite the complexity, identifying activities that directly contribute to setting up students forsuccess after graduation is crucial in higher education. The Institute of Engineering andTechnology reports that up to half of engineering students graduate without enough of thetechnical or interpersonal skills required by potential employers. This could be contributingto the fact that between 30% to 50% of engineering students end up in careers outside of theirfield. Therefore, one of these defined

These projects allow students to get hands-on experience in solving a range ofengineering problems like those they will face in their careers, while also gaining professionalskills that enable them to work with others as a team.

To be fair, some faculty might havenever worked in industry or did any consulting work in his/her career, they may not have theproper training or experience to collaborate and work directly with the industry leaders.For the industry sponsors [13,14,15], they usually determine the project charter and the expecteddeliverables at the beginning of the semester. Unfortunately, without much interaction with thefaculty mentor, some sponsors might even treat the student team as an unpaid, remote internor co-op. Often, the sponsors could change the objective and deliverable in the middle of thesemester [19,20]. Hence, it
