reported in Educating Engineers: Designing for the Future of the Field). In addition, in 2011 Dr. Sheppard was named as co-PI of a national NSF innovation center (Epicenter), and leads an NSF program at Stanford on summer research experiences for high school teachers. Her industry experiences includes engineering positions at Detroit’s ”Big Three:” Ford Motor Company, General Motors Corporation, and Chrysler Corporation. At Stanford she has served a chair of the faculty senate, and recently served as Associate Vice Provost for Graduate Education. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2016 Helping Engineering Students Get Jobs: Views from Career Services

students from Civil (13), Environmental (4), Mechanical (7) andAerospace (1) Engineering were interviewed. Because the recruitment method relied onrecommendations from professors, all of the students were upperclassmen (One junior, 14 senior,and 14 graduate students) and were generally very active students in curricular and/orextracurricular activities. This was expected because the students who faculty would most likelyknow would be the most active or outgoing students. Ten of the interviewees were women and15 were men.Analysis –To relate the interviews to the survey, a rubric was developed to help identify bothwhen a person was talking about a certain dimension of the PSRDM and different degrees ofeach dimension. A preliminary rubric was created

, advancing work inthe community. Similarly, Percy Pierre described how, as director of the Sloan EngineeringProgram, he supported pre-college engineering education efforts for minority students. Althoughthese pioneers helped fund different kinds of engineering education work (research, teaching,and learning), they all described their influence more in terms of legitimacy for engineeringeducation than in monetary terms.Kemnitzer’s account focused on supporting early-career faculty through an NSF program thatwas the precursor to the current CAREER program. She recalled how the first award of this kindto a faculty member engaged in engineering education work was a significant step toward thefield gaining legitimacy at the national scale. She described

students in a traditional,lecture-based, engineering education experience no significant growth as self-directedlearners. Prior studies by multiple researchers indicate students experiencing PBLcurricula have experienced significant growth. These studies all used the Self-DirectedLearning Readiness Scale (SDLRS), a commercially available tool that has beenadministered to 120,000 adults and as been used in over 90 PhD studies.The researchers developed a qualitative study in an attempt to characterize how the PBLgraduates experienced self-directed learning. 27 PBL graduates were interviewed. Aphenomenographic methodology was used to determine how the graduates experienceSDL in their engineering practice.The result of the qualitative study is a set

testing of a new assessment instrumentthat was designed to evaluate the dispositions of engineering faculty members regardingparticular classroom strategies. The instrument, named the Value, Expectancy, and Cost ofTesting Educational Reforms Survey (VECTERS), was designed to assess attitudes regardingspecific student-centered classroom strategies and to collect self-reported use of those classroomstrategies. The desire to develop this instrument emanated from the project evaluation of anNSF-funded Improving Undergraduate Science Education (IUSE) project at a large college ofengineering in the southwestern United States.The IUSE project provides professional development for pairs of faculty members from multipleengineering disciplines (e.g

around gender and race, underrepresented groups that are already atrisk for leaving engineering may be disproportionately affected by negative team experiences. Amore careful investigation of negative behaviors, particularly using the lens of motivation, mayhelp educators improve teaming experiences.BackgroundTeamwork is generally considered vitally important to engineering practice. Accordingly, ABETaccreditation guidelines for programs require documented student outcomes of engineeringcurricula that include both ‘an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams’, and ‘an ability tocommunicate effectively’.6 In a survey of faculty, students, and industry professionals,communication was the highest-rated trait for graduates, with another study

As a program evaluator, she evaluated the effects of teacher professional development (TPD) programs on elementary teachers’ attitudes toward engineering and students’ STEM knowledge through a NSF DRK-12 project. As an institutional data analyst, she is investigating engineering students’ diverse pathways to their suc- cess.Dr. P.K. Imbrie, Texas A&M University P.K.

reports on three specific themesthat have emerged from our initial analysis of two interviews with a single research subject. Assuch, our account uses a single case approach, following in the footsteps of groundbreakingscholarship such as Foor et al.’s “ethnography of the particular” which recounts the livedexperiences of one female, multi-minority student pursuing an engineering degree.10 Our dataanalysis is ongoing, and in separate publications we will report results more specificallyconcerned with boundary spanning, including types of boundaries, boundary spanning roles andactivities, and competency demands experienced by early career engineers. Our larger objectivefor this paper is to explore the utility of investigating the realities of
