We have found that donors like to support these programs. Many of them have “lived this experience” in their professional careers and are anxious to provide support for what they feel is “the real world.” • We have also faced some challenges. One challenge was unexpected and more physical in nature—three faculty developed blood clots (two while abroad) directly related, we think, to sitting down for long periods of time while flying. One faculty member suffered a heart attack while in China. Fortunately we had two faculty directors on

Forexample, three of the juniors who participated in the research projects have applied for top pre-college research programs. Although their status was not actively tracked, they requestedreference letters from both faculty members. Ultimately, what is of interest is whether thestudents gain an appreciation and greater understanding of the STEM disciplines and how thatmanifests itself by participating students electing to pursue a career in STEM fields. This can betracked by the percentage of students enrolled in STEM

He is not necessarily“bouncing back” as much as wading through setbacks without addressing the academicchallenges he’s facing.

The model estimates that non-majors score about nine points lowerthan majors. Also quite significant was the year term. Earlier academic career students hadabout four points higher per year modeled scores. The gender effect is not as significant but theestimated effect is four points lower for women.

The goal is for students todevelop the same fundamental skills that they currently acquire, but to see better how these skillscan be applied to problems and situations that don’t appear in traditional textbooks. This greaterperspective will encourage some students to pursue non-traditional career paths, and other topractice with greater awareness of the impact of engineering on society.In Fall 2017
