knowledge that converts ideas into successful products or processes. As a result, many of the same skills such as exploring, mentoring, planning, organizing, scheduling,controlling, communicating, and leading could be used in both careers with minor modification.Dealing with people is always difficult and requires great skill. This is especially true whendealing with students. Many students are in a class not by choice, but simply because it is arequirement for graduation. In some cases, these students are uninterested in the subject,unmotivated, and quite simply bored. However, relating the subject matter directly to real worldindustrial and consumer applications tend to spark their interest. Actual products involvingautomotive components, robotic

At the recommendation of an NSFProgram Officer, the 2010 proposal (and the subsequent proposals submitted by ECU) included arecovery semester that enabled a funded student to retain his/her funding as long as his/her GPAwas only below 3.0 for one semester. While it is the case that some students have had to leavetheir S-STEM program at ECU due to a low GPA, it is also true that three engineering studentsand two biology students have been able to recover after one semester below 3.0 and remain intheir respective S-STEM program.Since there are occasions when students must leave an S-STEM program, it is important for aproposal to include a “substitution plan”.

In the LSE program,iterative revision and recreation of an individualized curriculum and career plan are understoodas signs of success rather than failure or deviation. Students are encouraged to understand anddesign their major as a “whole-person technical degree” that does not require them to pass, toassimilate, to compartmentalize, or to conform to stereotypes. We suggest that this holisticflexibility may disrupt barriers such as impostor syndrome by positioning the student not asimpostor but as designer and creator – even when enrolled in technical courses in which thesex/gender ratio is skewed male.

because they tend to distract instructors from their main functions, i.e., theirteaching, research and service to the department and the college. On-campus facilitiesand institutional arrangements such as consulting and enterprise incubators should beinvestigated by appealing to other professional models, i.e., medicine, law, veterinarymedicine, etc. Some of these activities are at the very least self-supporting, but could,if properly planned, shed funds that could be used to support other academicendeavors.I believe there are feasible action plans that should be adopted to pave the way forpotential collaboration between industry and academe.

The critical mass theory states that roughly 30% of people are required to create an influential body for policy changes [7]. 2. Lack of strategic planning for early-career faculty towards coping with the demands of the academic career based on informed/realistic expectations [8]. There are many unsaid nuances to obtaining and keeping faculty positions, and due to implicit bias, and culture, sometimes it is difficult to know what to ask, whom to ask, or how to ask to get the information required for success. 3.

Figure 4: A sample of academic policies that can be added to course syllabiCheating during examsCheating on exams can be either opportunistic or planned. Here are a few tips to preventcheating during exams-• Questions asked on the exams should never be repeated from previous semesters. In this technologically advanced era, do not ever recycle your exams.• Questions from textbooks and publisher text banks should be altered to avoid students copying from a solution manual that is readily available online.• If possible, at least two different sets of exams

However, this isparticularly difficult in large online courses because it is practically impossible to connect withevery single student and follow his/her progress in detail.The literature has also reported other problems that instructors face when shifting from face-to-face to online learning environments that I too have experienced. For example, the time neededfor the “significant upfront planning and organization” because materials should be loadedbefore the semester starts [2].

However, evenwith these changes, the department continued to see some students and faculty, specifically fromunderrepresented identities, in senior design teams experiencing discrimination.
