Having exceptional professional skills is what leads to success in roles withgreater responsibilities in management [6]. This emphasis on professional skills could allude to ashift in expertise from technical to professional skills when switching to a managerial role inlater career stages. The transition away from technical expertise may be difficult for engineers tonavigate, as professional skills align less with the technical skills associated with early career.We present our examination of practicing engineers’ definition of their expertise by genderidentity and

thatdeveloping a student’s intuition is an important aspect in engineering education, but the constructitself remains vague. As part of a larger project on defining engineering intuition, this paperfocuses on how first-year engineers perceive the construct of intuition. With less than a year ofexperience in engineering, these students currently lack the experience and knowledge requiredto develop robust intuition, but they have interesting insights into what they, as novice engineers,consider intuition and how it is developed. In future work, we will compare first-year studentperceptions of the construct with those of practicing engineering (representing experts) to capturesimilarities and differences across novice and expert perceptions on

As the ICAP theory suggests, cognitive engagement is influencedby the environment in which student learning takes place. Despite educators developingcurriculum (i.e. homework, projects, writing assignments, etc.) to influence student’s out-of-classenvironment, cognitive engagement outside the classroom is rarely addressed in the literature onSTEM students. One of the unique contributions of our instrument is the measurement of cognitiveengagement in two distinct environments: inside the classroom and outside the classroom.

Further, we speculate that successin engineering requires the application of multiple other skills such as communication,collaboration, creativity, computing, etc. which are likely to dilute the thought of engineering asa career in which people focus on the application of mathematics and science.
