Careers in Engineering Academia (Experience)AbstractImproving undergraduate STEM teaching for diverse students is dependent to some extent onincreasing the representation of Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) and women inthe ranks of faculty in engineering departments. However, new faculty members, whether theyhad postdoctoral training or not, report that they were not adequately prepared for academia. Toaddress this need, a professional development program was developed for underrepresenteddoctoral and postdoctoral students, which focused on various strategies to be successful inteaching, research and service aspects of academic positions. The program included an intensivetwo-week summer session, with follow

IntroductionTechnological innovation has contributed significantly to US economic growth over the last 50years. From a national defense perspective, there is a strong demand for quality educationalSTEM programs [1] for students pursuing careers in the Navy and supporting industries. TheNavy and Marine Corps are leaders in Naval Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics (STEM) education. In a framework for the civilian

The final category, non-technical skills,was relevant to both settings.INTRODUCTIONEngineering is one of the fastest growing fields with a thriving job market. A staggering 140,000new jobs have been created over the past decade with a median wage of $91,010 in the U.S. [1].With an exploding job market and high compensation rates, it is no surprise that the rate ofengineering undergraduate enrollment has increased by 63% between 2006 and 2015 [2]. Despitethis increase in interest in the field, there has also been a high rate of students dropping out orearly-career professionals leaving the engineering field after graduation
