Pontificia Universidad Católica (UC), themost prestigious and oldest engineering schools in the country. A key difference between thesetwo institutions’ proposals is that UCH developed its own strategic plan, while UC created aconsortium with Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María (UTFSM), another prestigiousinstitution within the region. By comparing both strategies, this investigation seeks to understandcurricular and organizational change in selective institutions after the first years of the designingand implementation of the program. As a conceptual framework, we ground our work in the richliterature of change in engineering education, in particular the branch that studies national effortsand coalitions for change.

. Utilizing a three-year Magnet School grant,DLJ established a Center for Mathematics and Engineering to developed and thenimplement its integrated, whole school curriculum with engineering as the core and theconnector. The results of this careful planning and meticulous attention to detailsproduced an elementary school environment that fosters student creative thinking withthe expectation of quantitative metrics to gauge that creativity. The merit of this totalemersion of engineering into an elementary curriculum is reflected in student scores onstandardized test as well as a plethora of awards and acknowledgements for the schoolincluding being named the top elementary STEM program in the nation by the 2015Future of Education Technology Conference

(LMSS).The initial interview with each engineer was semi-structured and focused on employmenthistory, career plans and aspirations, family background, experience of engineering coursework,and other similar themes. For those engineers with more than one interview, the interviewsconsisted of learning about the engineer’s current work projects, work environment and closecolleagues; and assessing the engineer’s attitude about his/her work activity and workplace socialenvironment.The analysis was conducted in several steps. First, the interviews were professionally transcribedand then thematically coded by Vinson. From these interviews Vinson was able to reconstructthe work history of each engineer, accounting for why engineers left or returned to

The majority of our students struggled to effectively presenttheir research in an oral or written form, and had difficulties working in a team environment. Theproblem was escalated at the postgraduate level in comparison to undergraduate, as many of ourgraduate students are international students and faced added difficulty due to differences inlanguage, culture, and education.To address these problems, we began by asking what attributes we want our students to have.
