with coaches, and future research will focus on both their effects on the program andthe program’s influence on the coaches. As the program expands to include grant proposalreview, we will be exploring the similarities and differences between schema development formanuscript and grant proposal review. Sustaining the EER PERT Project: Beyond the completion of the NSF funding period,we will be exploring other ways to support this as an ongoing activity in the EER community.Possible models include fee-based programs: in-person or online workshops, and online,asynchronous training developed and refined through this project. The target audience for theseprograms would be early career researchers, post-doctoral researchers, and graduate

two faculty members who each made the move after over fifteen years inindustry, one who is now early in that transition and the second moving toward full retirement.These experiences along with a review of literature, both on general career transitions and thoseinto education, are used to outline not only ideas on best practices for being successful in thetransition, but pitfalls and traps to be aware of and avoid. The specific goals of the article are to: (1) Provide an overview of the literature on the motivation for career change and explore the current research on the personal reasons for these transitions. In particular, examining specific types of positions and how they fit career changes into engineering education

competitions and report results backto faculty and staff. For 2011, a second research project was reincorporated into the class based onsurvey feedback. However, instead of individual research projects, students weregrouped by math placement and career interests and asked to compare and contrast twoengineering disciplines. Each team was given a math formula/principle at their level andasked to interview engineers in the field or the college to find out how it might be used inengineering practice. At the conclusion of each task, students participated in a postersession to convey to others in the class what they had discovered.Personal & Professional Development Personal and professional development for the camp and the course

interdisciplinary papers the authors have published with faculty from clinicalmedicine, bioengineering, finance, educational psychology, colonial history, business, sportsmedicine, and seismology. The paper includes five reasons to seek opportunities to applynumerical analysis to interdisciplinary problems, three common pitfalls of work in suchinterdisciplinary projects, and ten best practices for conducting numerical analysis ofinterdisciplinary problems.I. Reasons to seek interdisciplinary numerical analysis opportunities Interdisciplinary research often reveals low-hanging fruitAs a graduate student, one of the authors was the lone electrical engineer in a biomedical centerthat had a predominantly molecular chemistry emphasis.
