tenure, the lack of clarity in theP&T documents make it difficult for faculty to discern what these activities might be. As a result,many current P&T documents serve as a summative evaluative tool as opposed to a useful toolfor faculty development. This is unfortunate and should be viewed as a missed opportunity.Since being promoted and granted tenure is inherently important to a faculty member, then theP&T process could also be leveraged to encourage faculty to engage in activities that are highlyvalued by the institution while also helping the faculty member define a clear developmentalpath along their career trajectory. The idea of combining development with evaluation for facultyis not new. Cashin (1996) proposed the idea over 20

identified needis proposed in Appendix B. This plan could also take into account other faculty aspects (e.g.,research, administrative training). In the proposed plan, a given program is characterized byfaculty career stage and considers six elements (participation, complexity level, funding, programtype and evaluation). This elements are explained in the following paragraphs.Participation of faculty members in training programs could be mandatory or not according toindividual departmental hiring and promotion policies. To date, no policies are in place; everydepartment has its own policies. Regarding incentives, it is known that faculty members’participation might increase with the providing of incentives. Complexity level is defined as

that many faculty engage ininterdisciplinary project work well outside their fields of expertise, some in immersive programs away fromcampus. Findings from a study of early-career faculty engaging in interdisciplinary off-campus projectwork suggests that such opportunities were seen as valuable personal and professional developmentexperiences by the faculty, and that participation did not hamper progress toward tenure [9].5 Case Study: Nanyang Polytechnic Institute At NYP, students take a 3-year diploma program in a sequence of six semester-long 3-credit courses.Figure 4 shows how PBL experience is embedded in the curriculum; PBL currently forms about 30% ofmost diploma programs in NYP.

two meetings were dedicated to discussing mentorship-related needsengineering faculty have and brainstorming potential next steps. The informal component ofmentorship emerged as an important theme in these discussions because it occurs daily in subtleways. Although these interacts continuously affect faculty development, they are difficult tomanage or support structurally. The team conducted a “customer discovery” or havingdiscussions with recently promoted faculty to learn more about their mentorship-related needs.The reasoning for this is that incoming faculty receive a great deal of onboarding support whenthey first begin their faculty careers. There are ample workshops and other resources to supportthem in teaching, research, work-life

disparities and despite a variety of national and programmatic changes aimed atimproving outcomes for unrepresented groups, only marginal success has been achieved in thelast decade [1, 2]. The notable absence of low-SES students majoring in engineeringdisciplines has resulted in a profession that lacks the representation and diversity of the actualUS population and significantly impacts the career potential of low-SES students in theengineering fields [1]. Engineering faculty frequently recognize the problem, but often lackthe formal training in instructional best practices necessary to help underrepresented studentsto persist and succeed in their courses. Instead faculty often revert to teaching the way theywere taught, employing the long-venerated

The research should also consider multiple institutional contexts, as this studyfocused on faculty at HSIs. In addition, the findings of this study highlighted a need to examineinstructional faculty members’ perceptions and use of resources, beyond on-campus workshops.Finally, the interest by the instructional faculty in engaging further with engineering educationresearch suggests an opportunity to examine their development of educational theory andresearch knowledge.The results illustrated that only instructional faculty had multiple dominant teachingperspectives

Understanding conference participation in a Department of Engineering EducationAbstractThis research paper focuses on understanding conference participation in a department ofengineering education. The Engineering Education community has developed several spaces inthe United States and internationally to continuously discuss the trends of the field. However, wewanted to explore if people were participating in diverse conferences beyond the traditionalconferences in the field. Nevertheless, engineering educators come from a very broad range ofbackgrounds, including different
