and techniques ofvisualization should begin early; consequently, the idea for a summer research experience forundergraduates in visualization was born. The goal of the research site is consistent with the goalof the NSF-REU program: to provide promising undergraduate students with a complete,mentored research experience, to better prepare these students for graduate school orprofessional pursuits and encourage them to pursue a career in science [15]. The impact ofundergraduate research experiences have been well documented [16], [17], [18], [19]. Facultymembers generally agree that there are significant educational benefits to the undergraduateresearch experience [20], [21]. Students are thought to develop expertise in a specific area

A 2015 USNews and World Report article notes that, despite a national focus supported by federalgovernment funding to encourage women and minorities to study science, technology,engineering and math (STEM), the STEM workforce is no more diverse than it was in 2001.The discussion of the lack of women in STEM academia follows the same discussion as the lackof women in STEM. The issue is challenged and addressed by researchers across the country.For example, the NSF ADVANCE (Increasing the Participation and Advancement of Women inAcademic Science and Engineering Careers) Program has been in existence for approximately 15years seeking solutions to these

In addition, engineering has 78.6% malestudent body2. The interaction between student gender and instructor gender may also influenceSET. This paper will provide a brief overview of research into the effect of professor (andstudent) gender on the SET scores, and briefly explore recommendations for mitigating theeffects of bias.SET is intended to quantify teaching effectiveness. However, it is not clear that this is what SETsolely (or even primarily) measures. For example, one study showed a weak but positivecorrelation between the

The study used a combination of meta-analyticand structural modeling methods to develop input correlation matrices for path analytical tests ofthe Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) academic performance model developed by Lent,Brown, and Hackett (1994). SCCT seeks to predict how academic interests are formed and themeans by which academic performance is achieved. College GPA and retention were used asperformance criterion in the model. SCCT is based on the premise that general cognitive talent(i.e. academic preparedness), as represented by a students’ standardized test scores and highschool GPA, impacts college GPA and retention. This is shown in Brown’s study to happen bothdirectly and indirectly via mediating paths through a

The need to integrate sustainable development as a red thread throughall education has existed for a long time, and with the formation of the 17 sustainabilitydevelopment goals (SDGs) [2] in combination with the contemporary climate debate, thisneed is even more obvious regarding engineering education in 2030 than it is now.In addition to the challenge of sustainability, another challenge is posed by the industrydemand for engineers who are experienced in project management and who have the ability tolearn and adapt quickly, given that career paths will change more rapidly in the near future[3], [4], [1].

Industry 4.0 is a term thatseems to be synonymous with 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing”.The literature suggests that students and graduates who possess direct metal additivemanufacturing techniques knowledge and skills have a career advantage compared to studentswhose knowledge and skill base is limited to plastic printing [2].

Many institutions(and the academic departments within them) ask their least experienced faculty (typically, newassistant professors or lecturers) to teach large courses in their first few years8,22. Often thesecourses have many hundreds of students and are, by virtue of their size, among the mostchallenging to teach effectively13,36,62,48.

Yet, being labeled as an engineer providedRebecca with an important form of belonging that connected with her core form of personal identity.However, Rebecca also sought to maintain “a good social life” while achieving high performance.
