example, INFORMS(professional society for operations research) gives the following advice in the “Career FAQ’s”section of its website: “Because a great deal of our work involves the gathering of information, the presentation of results, and assistance in implementing solutions, strong interpersonal and communications skills are vital. In short, you must write and speak clearly and convincingly and be able to listen well and deal tactfully with the concerns of others (emphasis added).” [4]The American Statistical Association similarly identifies the “ability to communicate” in itsonline curricular guide [5], and the Mathematical Society of America, in its 2015 CUPMCurriculum Guide to Majors in Mathematical

seven in ten indicated it helped in personal growth, while 55% say college helpedthem prepare for a job or career [10]. From this it can be inferred that social and moralfunctions are seen positively by graduates.Given this data it would seem that the choice between fully online-learning and attending auniversity is simple, however this analysis was for data in a period when informationtechnology was only just beginning. If one thing has become clear over the last decade theeconomic resources put towards, and the impact of, information technologies has drasticallyexpanded the capabilities and pervasiveness of technology in individuals’ lives. Thispervasiveness has influenced how people live, what they value, and has raised increasingconcerns

ESI through community engagement and theexpectations of being tenure track faculty. So basically the whole time I've been on tenure track, I've been the faculty adviser and I've traveled four times with the group. But at the same time I can also see like OK once I get tenure and there's less pressure on myself to be like, OK I need a proposal, I need a paper, I'm wasting, I'm not wasting, but like all my time could be committed to that.Another interviewee who developed and teaches sustainability electives for engineering studentsdescribed that tenure was the catalyst for a career pivot. He described that tenure emboldenedhim to move from traditional lab-based research and teaching of core content in chemicalengineering to doing

who are not studyingengineering, our majors also need to be considered. For students preparing for careers inengineering, stories can show the human side of engineering and technology along with elementsof engineering practice. They can be used to cover important elements of engineering that do notcome across in courses that emphasize engineering analysis or practical experience with a giventechnology. Stories that can be used to tell non-majors about engineering and technology canalso be used to show our majors why their course material is important and how it can be used.These accounts can be used to put the material in the larger systems context.In a traditional classroom setting, stories are often told in lectures. Faculty are currently

student’s reaching the insight that their valuelies not purely in their technical knowledge and skills, but also in how they are applied toameliorate risk in the development of engineering solutions in complex environments.Without navigation with regard to the nature of engineering (as technology) and the role ofvolition in activity, it is not surprising that students are quite often perplexed when confronted bythese innovations. The practices and values to which they are exposed are most often than notdrawn from a diverse gamut of potential future career pathways and associated professions withtheir various value systems, ways of performing their profession, and not least understandings ofwhat knowledge and skills are of value and to be valued

perspectives.Notwithstanding the issue of finance, or indicators of issues for research raised by this study,as for example, levels of required mathematical attainment, Krupczak shows there is plentyof research to be done in this area that is not being done and should be done. He writes,“one suggestion for research might be to inquire of those engineers whose career paths haveled them out of engineering into positions in which they are making contributions in otherspheres of activity. Engineering is well known for the fact that many formally trained asengineers are now fulfilling other responsibilities that may also be occupied by individualswith other types of formal training. All types of business and management are obviousexamples but individuals formally trained
