These observations may, in turn, shed some light onwhether there can be parallel pathways for becoming a civil engineering designer and a licensedprofessional engineer.BackgroundEver since the split of the “engineering” discipline in the mid-1950’s into engineeringtechnology and engineering, there has been debate concerning the place and purpose to be filledwithin the engineering profession by graduates of Bachelor of Science (B.S.) engineeringtechnology

A 1992 internal report proposed ways to increase women faculty inscience and engineering. In 2003 the Office of Equal Opportunity concluded that for facultymembers hired in the 1980’s, men were significantly more likely to have been promoted toProfessor. One major issue identified in the literature involves the persistence of implicit biases,which are held by both women and men and which lead to individuals privileging male faculty

ofindividualized attention. Students value convenience, not incentive, in an extra help resource.Resources should be provided frequently, close to freshmen residence halls, and at varied times.Students also desire tutors who have a high understanding of the material and have an ability toexplain the material. Programs should strive to select tutors who can strike a balance betweendepth of knowledge and delivery of material. Paying attention to these attributes will increasethe likelihood that students will participate in supplemental instruction.References[1] S. A.

creation of a symbolic/mathematical (S)model for further analysis. Learning to solve problems in this particular way is a major goal forengineering education. The research presented in this paper focuses specifically on the text todiagram translation and the particularized representations utilized within a course onconservation principles. Previous research on student-generated diagrams revealed that, at thebeginning of the course, students are not able to construct useful diagrams that follow theconservation laws. This result led to the general question of whether students can recognizeuseful, correct diagrams; more specifically: 1) Given a set of diagrams, are students able todistinguish between effective and ineffective diagrams? and 2) How do

the present with FIRST and robotics, they can also become useful inmy future career paths. For instance, in college, students will most likely be expected to worktogether in group projects, providing an opportunity for them to exercise their communicationskills. Even outside of school, employees may be expected to work in teams to completeprojects. Teamwork is an extremely important quality that is often made commonplace in many,if not all, collaborative environments as it can result in effective collaboration betweensubordinates due to the presence and flow of diverse ideas and perspectives. Since I, similar tomany others, was able to develop these skills through the FIRST program(s), I am now able toexercise these skills in practically
