during their undergraduate degree,it might be easy to assume they would not be fit to enter into the construction management field.Employers do not typically require high levels of job understanding when hiring students out ofcollege. They look for work ethic and a foundation of basic skills required to carry out entry-level duties that fit within the bounds of their employment. College students, upon leaving theiruniversity, are not immediately ready to perform every aspect of their job. They need trainingand time to develop skills. Finance students might not be able to act as a field engineer, but theirskills with money management, forecasting, and analytics make them extremely valuable office-level engineers.

Saliently, thisexperimental approach offers important advantages over a true randomized experiment, as itavoids both denying mentors to students who want them and imposing mentors on uninterestedstudents, which has been identified as an ethical concern (Gershenfeld, 2014).In the following section, the raw data acquired to date is shown, followed by the description of a)the data analysis performed to identify statistically significant effects of the intervention onretention and performance; and b) the results of said analysis.3

Pre-course surveys tested students on theirunderstanding of what doing research meant and the role of ethics in research. It also askedstudents about their own research experiences (if any) and their perceptions about engaging inresearch in the future and the value of doing research at all.Meeting each Wednesday afternoon for 3 hours, Dr. Hall walked the students through the purposeof research, the scientific method, a description of and the importance of ethical conduct, andcommunication of results.

during both the 3-hour research course and 1-hour seminar and were often a majorfocal point in students’ course projects, these issues did not emerge as a major theme across thepost-course concept maps. Some students included vulnerable populations on their concept mapsas something needing attention, and others noted it in their explanations, but its limitedappearance raises new questions for both the research team and the program about strategies tohelp students more effectively integrate these ethical concerns into their conceptualunderstanding. In part, as suggested by the results, concept maps alone may not be a sufficienttool to capture students’ understanding of a domain as complex as DRRM. At the same time, it ispossible that some
