graduate students have had little instruction orpractice in writing and communicating as professionals. In addition, those whose firstlanguage is not English often need specialized instruction in writing and presenting inEnglish.This paper describes a series of four collaborative professional communicationsworkshops for engineering graduate students at the University of South Carolina Collegeof Engineering and Information Technology. Each of the workshops focused on a majorcommunications responsibility in engineering at the advanced degree level: teaching,dissertation writing, scholarly publication, and career-related communications. Eachsession included brief, informal presentations by engineering and communications facultyon communications

Engineering Undergraduates Concurrently Seeking K-12 STEM Teacher Licensure: Fuels the Soul or Too Many Barriers?IntroductionThe benefits of infusing K-12 education with engineering—specifically engineering design anddesign habits of mind—is well established; engineering design is a powerful vehicle for scienceand math education [1]. Engineering education research suggests that students who are exposedto engineering topics during their elementary and secondary years are more motivated to enrolland succeed in advanced science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) courses inmiddle and high school, as well as eventually pursue engineering and other STEM careers [1, 2].Moreover, students who enter undergraduate engineering programs

Moreover, interview participants often recounted how their designexperiences in EPICS informed their current design experiences. Through the thematic analysis,we recognized themes related to design to be quite pervasive in the interview accounts.The objective of this particular paper is to articulate how authentic design experiences, such asEPICS, affect alums in how they understand and practice design in their careers.
