As a result, all parties are better set up forsuccessful university-industry collaboration.1 IntroductionProject-based courses are increasingly popular in engineering education, allowing educatorsto target a variety of professional skills. Working for or together with external communities orindustry partners can further add to the experience, offering students a unique opportunity toget meaningful real-life experiences of contextualized problem framing and problem solvingduring their studies [1,2].

One possible factor is lack ofknowledge about the field of engineering. Although the Next Generation Science Standardsincorporate some fundamental engineering concepts in K-12 education [2], many teachers werenot exposed to the field of engineering during college, limiting their students’ exposure andaccess to this field [3

, it can be easy to focus on the experiences of first-time-in-college (FTIC)students. However, this focus is an idealization - as messaging about engineering from the firstyear is a critical junction for how students make decisions about persisting in an engineeringprogram [see 1].
