of faculty personnel: military and civilian. Thecivilian faculty tend to be traditional tenure-track and typically remain at the institution for muchor most of their careers. The military faculty, however, are assigned to faculty positions foranywhere from three to six years, depending on their career field and the needs of the Air Force.Two categories of faculty at AFIT mean that there is a significant influx of new military facultyannually. The new faculty orientation program must be structured to accommodate a cohort ofnew faculty that are predominantly military members. The orientation program must be flexiblein meeting the needs of a diverse cohort of new faculty that enter their positions with variedbackgrounds and, in many cases

unable to attract top-quality engineers for faculty positions due to the lack ofattractive long-term career growth prospects and due to the stigmatization of teaching jobs[3].This is not only seriously hampering building excellence in Indian engineering institutions,but is becoming an issue of their survival. The teaching-learning process in an educational institution is the key process like themanufacturing process in a manufacturing firm and the faculty members of the institute are itskey elements. The ABET report ‘Engineering Change: A Study of the Impact of EC2000’ thatrefers to the criteria for accrediting engineering programs states that the teaching faculty is theheart of any educational program [4]. We contend that the

faculty members at institutions that focus more onresearch output. A study by Feldon et al suggests that teaching professional development canimprove research methodological skills, which can improve research productivity [5]. Facultywho engage in teaching professional development also need less time to prepare for class, andthus, can spend more time on other responsibilities like research.Second, engaging in teaching professional development is linked to adoption of research-basedteaching practices [6]. Future faculty, however, report a lack of structured professionaldevelopment opportunities that prepare them for their future faculty careers [7]. Engineeringdisciplines are ideal spaces and communities of action to engage future faculty in

HES has a set ofcore faculty plus “affiliated” faculty from other units on campus – we refer to the combination asthe “team.” The team is made up of some mid-career and senior faculty in established academicdepartments and a few new hires of junior faculty into the College of Innovation + Design (CID)– a new experimental unit of Boise State.Boise State launched CID in August 2015 with the mission to prototype novel models ofresearch, development, and education (RD&E) – without needing to subscribe to thebureaucracies of a state institution.

This framework is used as a set of guiding principles forstudents on what to strive for in their undergraduate path and into their careers and is often usedin strategic planning by the College. The attributes of the World-Class Engineer include solidlygrounded, technically broad, globally engaged, ethical, innovative, excellent collaborators, andvisionary leaders. This framework is relevant to this study as it served as the foundation for someof the instructional changes made within the
