. This provides a hands-on approach to learning material, andtherefore presents a very powerful mastery experience for students in which they can developself-efficacy.This paper presents a qualitative analysis of the experience of student researchers with regard toself-efficacy development. Specifically, we look at a construct of self-efficacy based aroundstudent research experiences and their impacts on confidence to work as an engineeringprofessional. A phenomenological methodology guides the selection of participants and theinterview process. The participants of this study are undergraduate and graduate engineeringstudents at a Utah State University. To track self-efficacy development, the research teamconducted semi-structured interviews

No online, asychronous alternative was available for thatactivity, so the instructor focused on the case study in EGR 193 instead. In future work, it mightbe interesting to consider how to extend the discussion of data ethics with the data collection andmanipulation tasks that many undergraduates find themselves engaging in as early researchassignments.AcknowledgementsWe are grateful for the students and faculty who participate in undergraduate research and makethis high-impact experiential education opportunity available at Michigan State University(MSU).

On that front, research shows that socialization, mentorship aswell as a positive and nurturing work environment have a quantifiable effect on student well-being and development [4].The engineering curriculum at University of Detroit Mercy is designed to direct the studentstoward professional practice very early, requiring three co-op semesters beginning in the summerof their freshman year. The likelihood of professional success and, more importantly, the levelof satisfaction derived from a professional career are due, in no small part, to self-knowledge andto the use of that knowledge to place

Society for Engineering Education and Association for Computing Machinery. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019Work in Process: Collaborative Design ProjectsAbstractSoft skills such as leadership, effective communication and being able to function inmultidisciplinary teams are required to be successful in engineering workplaces. The complexityof engineering problems has required engineers to work effectively in multidisciplinary teams.Therefore, multidisciplinary capstone design has been becoming a regular practice in engineeringschools. However, collaborative design among multiple disciplines for non-capstone courses hasbeen neglected. In spring 2018, students enrolled in Measurements and

Internship Search ProcessAbstractThis research paper presents the findings from a study out of the University of Colorado Boulderfocused on using design thinking to improve internship search related resources and supports.The goals of the study were to 1) identify points of disconnect that students experience duringthe internship search process and 2) work collaboratively with student participants to identifyuseful, creative solutions. The identified points of disconnect can be viewed as potential points ofattrition, where students have the highest likelihood of dropping out of the internship searchprocess. By thinking strategically and creatively about how to address them, those points ofattrition can be converted into leverage points for positive

: 1) experiential leadership development, which requires placing studentsin opportunities that allow them to practice leading; 2) service learning, which providesopportunities for learning through interactions with communities, schools, and non-profitorganizations; and 3) experiential learning, which covers work-integrated learning, internships,apprenticeships, and other hands-on activities. These engagement opportunities are consistentwith Tinto’s theory of student integration, which postulates that academic and social integrationare key factors for increasing student persistence and graduation. Through a synthesis of themain facets of these theory-based approaches, we will: 1) describe an employability model forSTEM majors, 2) illustrate

) and whether better practices inthese areas vary by discipline. A common claim in engineering is that internships form the firststep of an engineering student’s transition into the workplace, yet little peer-reviewed evidence(quantitative or qualitative) characterizes the impact of internships on career paths at a largescale, let alone how these career trajectories might differ for students doing virtual internships.Additionally, researchers might evaluate differences, whether in design or outcomes, betweeninternships planned as virtual from the start and those that were designed in-person but becamevirtual due to extraordinary circumstances (i.e. COVID-19). Repeat surveys might indicate whatimpact the pivot to remote internships might have

Regarding critical thinking, the students mentioned how they had a lack ofunderstanding for how various disciplines interacted in a big system. One student mentionedhow they would like to understand how a plot of land goes from barren to a building andwhat specific considerations are required. This example best illustrates the gap the studentswere describing: they lacked the ability to design the details. When entering their workforce,it was these details that they needed to figure out and work with. Another student described itas “think[ing] outside the box and be[ing] able to solve problems”.
