research demonstrates that professional skills, such as teamwork, projectmanagement, cultural awareness, leadership, and interpersonal communication, are still lacking inour graduating students [7, 8], and, in turn, are slowing their career advancement. For this reason,university engineering programs, as well as professional societies in engineering [9, 10], haveidentified the teaching of such professional skills as a goal. Unfortunately, despite this growingand collective interest in professional skills, studies [3, 11] continue to show significant gapsbetween what students are taught in the classroom and what they need to know to succeed inprofessional engineering practice.There is well-established research that professional skills are

thechallenges that are present during graduate training are common among graduate students. Thesesimilarities are more evident among graduate students that share certain backgrounds, and inparticular among members of minority groups. While much research has been devoted to theexperiences of gender and ethnic minorities [1]–[3], the experiences of English as SecondLanguage (ESL) students in graduate school has been poorly explored. The challenges of ESLstudents often interplay with those of gender and ethnic minorities because their identities areintersectional with such characteristics. Therefore, being an ESL student represents a dimensionthat would be valuable to explore in the context of graduate education.Supporting the development of graduate

The increase in leadership skills may intuitively be increased for projectleaders or subgroup leaders, but the increase noted by participants in general is slightlyunexpected. It may be that having the different fields collaborating together creates a dynamicwhere participants can take the lead in their respective area of expertise. Although, this woulddepend on group size (among other factors), and further evaluation would be needed to draw anydefinite conclusions.Lastly, most robotics competitions also provide an opportunity for students to meet with studentswho share

In thepast, several initiatives to meet workforce demand through cooperative educational model wereshort lived. The reasons for discontinuation of such programs can be attributed to either lack ofplanning or not enough success compared to the anticipated level of success from the program.In this paper, authors explain how a Modified Apprenticeship Program (MAP) tailored to meetthe needs of local industries can be sustained without expending a large amount of resources.The example for this case is ‘Advanced Manufacturing Technician’ (AMT).
