American c Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Thinking Entrepreneurially about Your CareerAbstractThis Work-in-Progress paper outlines an approach that a faculty member can utilize to takeownership of their career. Although many full-time faculty, whether mid-career, tenure-track, ornontenure-track, do not think of themselves as entrepreneurial, it is imperative that one isentrepreneurially minded (EM) to succeed in academia. The tasks that a faculty membercompletes each day: teaching, obtaining research dollars, managing and recruiting students

The results of this study highlight faculty experiences withundergraduate student mental health and could guide the development of targeted training toprepare engineering faculty for interacting with students with mental health concerns.IntroductionIt has been said that colleges and universities are experiencing a “mental health crisis,” with asignificant increase in the prevalence of mental health concerns across campuses [1]. There aremany reasons why college students are at increased risk for mental health problems during theirundergraduate careers. Many mental

The merits of multi-year research experiences and the influence of mentorsare also well-documented [3, 4]. The benefit of research experiences for undergraduates(REUs) is so significant that the National Science Foundation (NSF) supports multipleannual summer REUs through annual grants.

This paper addresses the first steps for the following research questions:• Does a design systems thinking approach create a responsive model for a community-driven faculty development program? Does this model adapt to community needs and individual faculty career needs?• Will a design systems thinking approach support the community development of a sustainable model for faculty development that thrives outside of the funding organization?This project is ongoing

These numbersindicate that students lose enthusiasm or interest in S&E somewhere between high school, whenmany are interested in an S&E career, and graduation. Further, students are aware of this, asnearly half (49%) of surveyed engineering juniors report having doubts about majoring inengineering. Retaining students until graduation is recognized as a challenge by higher learninginstitutions across the US [4]. Due to the heavy focus on content, engineering in college turnsinto a “closed club” and becomes less attractive for students to persist in [3].1.2: Predictors of PersistenceSeymour and
