nation’seconomy. The exponential growth of engineering education in India has affected the qualityof engineering graduates in terms of their employability. The National Board of Accreditation(NBA) accredits engineering programs using the Outcome-Based Education (OBE)framework. This framework has twelve graduate attributes of the ‘Washington Accord’aligned with program outcomes. This paper proposes a systems approach which consists ofinput, transformation and output towards achieving employable skills in engineers. Theprogram outcomes consisting of technical and professional skills are derived from thecompetencies required for the target roles in the industry and the graduates’ attributes.Keeping this in mind, a structured outcome-based curriculum was

experience as an essential component when developing expertisedespite differences in perceptions of whether intuition can be learned. Participants also describedimprovements in their judgement, including the speed and accuracy of decision making, throughexperience. Terms such as “gut-feeling” were used to describe how their current judgement anddecision-making compares to their earlier career selves. These results are well-aligned with theliterature on expertise and decision making, which can be used to identify the role of engineeringintuition in future interviews. Our work going forward will be sure to keep in mind alternateexplanations to our existing and future data and seek to understand the definition and context-specificity of engineering

Building on their past research, they provide the following example toillustrate the experience of a Black engineering student in the United States:RUNNING HEAD: Manufacturing pathways “…as a student, if you have a bad experience and you don’t feel like your presence is even wanted, never mind improving the situation, you want out of the environment, because it’s toxic.

yourself.ExplanationWe are doing a study to determine how to get more engineering professors involved in inclusivepractices. We are exploring the idea of professors using inclusive teaching methods to helpstudents succeed in ECE classes. We are defining inclusive teaching methods as initiatinginteractions with students in class or office hours intended to improve their capacity, interest, orbelongingness in engineering (as defined on the tip sheet). In other words, inclusive teachinginvolves bringing typical mentoring strategies into the classroom on a smaller scale. The tipsheet gives many examples of these strategies. • So that we can get your understanding of the definition, what are some examples that come to mind when you think of inclusive

Profoundly, sheimplies that a primary objective might be to simply demonstrate an ability to handle variouskinds of stresses (“I have to be like a well-rounded person who can handle these kinds ofstresses”), because in her mind that constitutes well-roundedness as an engineering student. Thisbelief that experiencing high amounts of stress correlates to one’s legitimacy as an engineeringstudent emerges throughout the data, as does the frustration (“I just need more hours in the day”)which accompanies an inability to effectively and consistently satisfy the system of

communication activities informed by industryco-curricular partners. Central to contemporary pedagogical approaches such as problem-basedlearning and entrepreneurially minded learning is an aim to engage students in authenticexperiences which integrate technical knowledge with workplace skills connected toprofessionalism, communication, collaboration, and leadership. This aim, however, is oftendifficult to incorporate into the design of engineering curricula, which frequently separatetechnical learning from “soft skills” coursework in interpersonal, professional and technicalcommunication. Recognizing this persistent divide, this paper reports on a descriptive case study[8], [9] employing a backwards design approach to integrate professional

Similarly, verbalrecognition from instructors helped students generate confidence and a sense of belonging.Affirming a student’s effort within a class, or more broadly recognizing characteristics a studenthas that embody what it means to be an engineer can foster confidence moving forward. Generally,faculty can position themselves as allies by being mindful about their discourse and actionsthrough limiting negative language, communicating openly with students about course content ata level they can understand, being present within the classroom, encouraging feedback, and givingverbal recognition of effort.

In particular, theengineering students’ assistance was sought when building and coding a mechanism to addmovement to the robot.This study, while intended to directly impact the coding knowledge and interprofessional skillsof education and engineering students, is also part of a larger movement to broaden participationin STEM fields, particularly engineering.

The first threeparticipants were recommended by an engineering education expert on the research team, and therest of the participants were recruited through snowball sampling [27]. Each interview lastedbetween 30 and 50 minutes. The semi-structured interview protocol asked participants abouttheir journeys as educators and their inclusive practices. Each interview was audio recorded withpermission from the participants. The data was then transcribed verbatim. Using an inductivethematic analysis [28], with reflexive coding, we surfaced semantic themes from the data. Theinterview included questions such as : 1. What comes to mind when

Together, these studies suggest that student persistence in STEM may be a strong function ofstudent satisfaction related to STEM education processes, support structures, and culture.Nontraditional Student SuccessThe literature further indicates that nontraditional students often use more personalized andbroad-minded measures to consider and evaluate their own educational success. For example,Wirth and Padilla [12] found that community college students took a wider view of their successand used goal realization and course completion (rather than degree completion) as indicators oftheir personal achievement.

Researchers should equip themselves with two types of knowledge: (a) knowledge on data science and machine learning, which is a driver of the fourth Industrial Revolution; and (b) knowledge specific to the types of student experiences (i.e., curricular and co-curricular) of their research interest. These two bodies of knowledge appear to be increasingly important to the interdisciplinary field of engineering education. Researchers also need to keep an open mind and explore a wider range of

We have developed and deployed a survey withevidence of validity and reliability to measure 28 NCA factors from n=2339 undergraduates at17 U.S. institutions. The factors examined include personality, grit, meaning and purpose,engineering identity, mindset, motivation, test anxiety, test and study environment, perceptionsof faculty caring, self-control, stress, gratitude, mindfulness, and sense of belonging. The resultsfrom a previous cluster analysis identified four distinct clusters of students’ NCA profiles,accounting for 69.0% of the sample.
