and allowsindividual growth and change [12-14].Effective Mentoring and Student SuccessThe benefits of undergraduate research rely a great deal on the quality of mentoring provided[16].When strategies like strategic pre planning and clear expectations are used, it makesmentoring significantly more efficient and understandable for the student [16]. Mentoring is adynamic process that involves both the mentor and the student. Mentoring is a developmentalexperience and a supportive relationship that is intended to advance students that are beingmentored toward their career and research identity. Effective mentoring relationships positivelyimpact students and mentors when they communicate messages of invitation, inclusivity andbelonging to a

PBL is regarded asa specific kind of inquiry-based learning[8, 9] where the context of learning is provided by real-world actions and actual questions and challenges [10], which will lead to valuable learningexperiences for students [11, 12].Within a structured process of recording and commenting on learning, project-based learning canhelp students develop their own self-regulated learning[13] and can advance their conceptualknowledge [14]. Goal-setting, planning, and organization help students become self-directed[15,16]; social learning helps them collaborate; and being encouraged to exercise some choice whilestudying at their own pace helps them become intrinsically motivated.[17].

For him, social justice is a concept that should always be involved in discussions on infrastructure. Related to STEM education, Miguel Andr´es is in developing and applying contemporary pedagogies for STEM courses, teaching empathy studies in engineering as a tool for innovation, and assessing engineering students’ agency to address climate change.

The employability ofengineering students today depends on more than just using their technical abilities; in order toeven secure part-time employment and progress in their careers, they also require complementaryprofessional abilities or soft skills [2], [3], [4]. These professional skills include the capacity forinitiative, teamwork, communication, planning and organization, and commercial acumen [5], [6],[7].

Next, since service events are required in our School, we willalso require each peer mentor to host and plan a service event, inviting all students and especiallytheir peer mentors to participate. Finally, we realize there are some introverted first-year students who might prefer theone-on-one events listed above instead of large group events. Therefore, before the semesterstarts, we can

For example, an engineer may be in a small start-upcompany or working independently and may be positioned to be engaged in processes from theinitial idea, drafting solutions, creating models, testing prototypes, and refining potential endproducts. In contrast, an engineer may be in a large corporate organization, where theirresponsibilities are frequently limited to drafting plans for prototypes or products to certainspecifications with minimal engagement in

The First-Year Seminar at Campbell University approaches helping studentsunderstand engineering with a ‘something for everyone’ approach that examines engineeringfrom many perspectives and asks students to identify and build on whichever set of perspectivesconnects best to their interests and career plans. To this end, a set of activities examining beautyand elegance in engineering was created to focus on creative and aesthetic aspects ofengineering, and other positive impacts of engineering related to experiences of beauty.While not typically considered a core first-year topic [2], exploring the concepts of beauty andelegance with first-year engineers broadens and enhances their

Among the 64 teams I have taught over the lasteight years, I have yet to have a team that did not encounter challenges, and had to modify theoriginal plan the Project Manager proposed. It is important that students learn to expectchallenges and persevere to find solutions.
