However, utilizing McMillan and Chavis’ (1986) PSOC, we have beenable to integrate and offer the possibility to demonstrate why this unintended effect is occurringwith non-STEM participants in the PROMISE AGEP. Use of the PSOC model as a conceptualframework for the PROMISE AGEP is an example of an “unintended effect.” PSOC wasintroduced to PROMISE: Maryland’s AGEP by a former graduate

Typical graduate engineering curriculum consists of a set ofcore courses which address critical competencies needed to enhance technical skills, followedby course technical electives in a concentration area. However, most of the programs aredeveloped without any direct involvement or collaboration of an external industry. As a result,the specialized programs are not effective.Curricula structured around traditional disciplines can be easily developed without anyindustry involvement. However, trans-disciplinary programs in specialized fields can beenhanced by harnessing industry collaboration. By bringing

by teaching at least one graduate course per year.ConclusionTo start and maintain a successful graduate program in Technology, several factors need to beconsidered. An initial environmental scan will help the program to set a curriculum whichaddresses the need of prospective students and employers. The program needs to distinguishitself from an engineering graduate program by having courses on managerial/leadership skills aswell as courses on decision making skills, in addition to technical courses, as part of thecurriculum. A step-by-step approach in growth, by slowly expanding the program, will help theprogram flourish as the offering becomes broader and therefore addresses the needs of a broaderconstituency.
