in mind is the major driving force in this entire process. Engineering students in an academic setting do not have the environment, theresponsibilities, the demands or the interactions with other members of an engineering team,nor do they face the real-life situations and challenges that a practicing engineer faces everyday. Therefore, I decided that my mentorship must have as many professional engineeringaspects as academic ones. I built my mentoring role to be part coach preparing students fortheir big game after graduation, part advisor to help them choose the right courses for theircareer path, part trainer to improve their skills, part counselor to help them in hard times, partcheerleader to celebrate their successes and, above

anyinitiative attempted. The faculty must have enthusiasm and passion for the engineeringprofession, enthusiasm for passing the torch to the next generation, enthusiasm in upholdingthe highest professional standards, and enthusiasm in believing in the unlimited potential oftheir students! With the goal in mind our team decided to hire as faculty only engineers witha proven track of industry experience that have passion and enthusiasm of teachingengineering the way is done out there in the real world so our graduating students will be“industry ready”. This decision was made based on the fact that from all the engineeringgraduates with a bachelor degree less than 10% continue their studies to a master’s degree orhigher [33] and eventually end up working
