Studentquestions about “real-world” experiences can lead to discussions that could relate toprofessionalism and ethics, liability, and other non-technical issues9. Industrialexperience and professional licensure is more important in undergraduate programs thanin graduate programs1. This stems from the fact that many graduate students aremigrating toward careers in academia and research, while the undergraduate counterpartsare most often going into field engineering positions upon graduation.

A student, who is enrolled on the census date, and does not officiallywithdraw from a course but fails to complete it, receives a WU. The NC stands for No Credit,and the students who failed, their grades automatically changed to NC. The students who got Dhad the option to petition for changing their grade to NC. Due to the challenging COVID-19related situations, the university administration believed that these would be the most ethical andcompassionate decisions.
