Engineering Education (ASEE) [1]. World War II curtailed the activities of bothgroups. After the war, however, the engineering librarian communities in ACRL and ASEE grewquickly, offering new opportunities for professional development, networking, informationsharing, research, and advocacy.This paper seeks a deeper understanding of the academic engineering librarian community in the1940s and early 1950s through the analysis of data compiled from the Directory of CollegeEngineering Library Personnel [2], published in 1949 by the Engineering School LibrariesSection of ACRL and supplemented by data from other sources such as Who’s Who in LibraryService [3]. The Directory is a rich source of data that includes details such as position titles,degrees
ninety percent of learners stronglyagree or agree that the Learning Management System (LMS) is great for their engagement withother learners and the instructor. Additionally, the results expressed student satisfaction withonline admission, registration, and advising. The surveys identified that the impact of the onlineengineering graduate program in the case study on the learner included a job promotion andsalary increase for most of the survey participants.Keywords: Online Education, Software Engineering Education, Case Study Proceedings of the 2023 ASEE North Central Section Conference 1 Copyright © 2023, American Society for Engineering EducationINTRODUCTIONTechnology can significantly
excellence, leadership skills, and professional and personalgrowth among students. The success of the program may be attributed to a well-planned set ofactivities designed to create a learning community among scholars. Participation among scholarsin these program activities has been high, and most of the activities were perceived byparticipants to be valuable.As a follow up to the first round of the five-year NSF S-STEM grant, Cañada College applied forand was awarded a second five-year S-STEM grant from 2014 to 2019. Now in its third year ofimplementation, the program continues most of the activities developed in the first S-STEMprogram, with additional emphasis on stronger engagement of faculty mentors and additionalsupport from a Retention
-relatedfigures, ET programs had over 30,000 students and 10,000 graduates in 2021 (American Societyof Engineering Education [ASEE], 2022). Significant proportions of Bachelor of Science (BS)ET programs have articulation agreements that allow transfer of students with Associate ofApplied Science (AAS) and Associate of Science (AS) in ET (NAE, 2017). A recent survey ofET leaders for the 2019 ET Leadership Institute indicated that serving community collegetransfer students was among the top perceived opportunities for the future of ET programs (Foxet al., 2020). National data show that ET programs attract students from certain marginalized andminoritized groups, including neotraditional age (24 and older) and Black/African Americanstudents (NAE, 2017

Other students applied to muchsolder that resulted in solder bridges and required the use of a de-soldering wick to removeexcessive solder.Although a few students had soldered experiences, most students indicated that the trainingopportunity was very helpful as they can learn about the soldering equipment and practice theirsoldering skills.Course AssessmentA course assessment was conducted in the Fall 2019 and Fall 2020 respectively. In the studentsurveys, one student expressed “ we learned a large variety of cool labs with PCB design.”; Onestudent expressed “ tests anxiety was highest in the course because of the style of learning. Thisprobably has less to do with the instructor and more to do with the style of
graduate levels, and he is well-versed in the scholarship of teaching.

For example, recent studies by Deloitte and The Manufacturing Institute notethat the U.S. faces a need for nearly 2.4 million manufacturing positions to be filled by 2028 [1].In addition, in May 2019, Deloitte surveyed 523 executives in a range of industries in 26countries across the globe on their intelligent automation strategies and the impact on theirworkforces. Results suggest that over the next three years, executives expect automation toincrease their workforce capacity by 27%, which is equivalent to 2.4 million additional full-timeemployees [2].
