More than the celebration of great achievements,the methods inherent to historical research teach engineering students useful lifelong learningskills. For example, the close reading of primary source documents, including patents, labnotebooks, or newspaper articles, can help engineering students understand not only the designprocess but also its relationship to its broader historical context. These are the same crucialthinking skills that engineering students must develop to succeed in their senior design projectsand postsecondary careers. Including enhanced training in library research skills in courses

, consistently show great success in theenrollment and retention of women. Research into women’s preference for these engineeringdisciplines suggests that women earn larger proportions of undergraduate degrees in programswhere they perceive their career will benefit society in the long term and that these preferredprograms offer both the motivation to persevere in the curriculum and, once completed, greaterprospects for a more rewarding career. Based on these findings, university engineeringdepartments can help motivate women to major in engineering and to stay engaged throughouttheir college careers by offering opportunities to address societal challenges and reinforce thepotential contribution they can make through their career.

It is well known that early exposure toSTEM environments can inculcate and reinforce interests in technical fields at key decisionpoints when individuals choose career pathways [1]–[3]. Given the importance of a strong STEMtalent-base to global economic competitiveness and prosperity, there exists a need to cultivate apre-college landscape gives all students broad, authentic exposure to STEM fields earlier in theireducation [4].

to produce quality research rather than a large quantity of it. One respondentreferenced the changes of publishing practices over their career: Things were very different when I was a grad student. We published strictly in traditional journals in our area of research. We did not worry about the impact factor, just suitability. Now I tell my students to publish in open-access journals with high impact factors. Of course, they have to be suitable, and oftentimes I'm willing to swap impact factor for the cost of OA publishing.Regarding advising, faculty mentioned instructing students to look to the papers they are citingfor sources of potential publication.

This work, fundedby the Engineering Information Foundation, presents our first step in developing a series ofmodules to support engineering students' development of information literacy. We haveinterviewed five engineering librarians to develop a list of best practices for information literacyinstruction in engineering courses. Based on the analysis of the interviews we identified a numberof concepts that will be considered as we develop our modules. Two of these concepts include theneed for a strategic approach and the need to incorporate instruction throughout students’undergraduate career. This paper also provides a list of recommendations for faculty and librarianswho are involved in ILI for undergraduate engineering

Becoming “familiar” with the relevant standards is one ofthose things every engineer has to learn once they start their career. They’ll always have tolearn new things on the job. This is one of them.International Building Code (IBC) is primary for ME’s and CE’s. In the back of the IBC thereis a “Referenced Standards” it lists other required standards such as: ACI for concrete, AISCfor steel structures, ANSI for misc, ASCE for wind and seismic loads, ASME for piping, ASTMfor materials, NFPA 70 (NEC) for electrical.It depends on discipline.
