ET in APSU offers ETAC of ABET accredited degree programs at the four-year bachelor's degree level. For people interested in gaining practical skills, this degree can bean ideal fit. With its focus on applications, it fits the person who has been in the workplace andnow needs a degree for advancement as well as others wanting a hands-on approach toengineering and technology [5]. The ET program prepares students for technical careers inmultiple concentrations (electrical, mechanical, manufacturing, and mechatronics) in a widerange of applications and provides leadership in developing solutions to industrial problems [6],[7], [8]. The primary method of instruction for courses in the various concentrations in the ETprograms is based on the

ofinternational students. They found that the main reasons cited by foreign students for pursuingtheir degrees in the US were the higher quality of education, future career opportunities, thedesire to experience living abroad, the opportunity to work with specific faculty, and thepossibility of applying for residence in the United States [20]. This suggests that the UnitedStates is an attractive destination for international students who seek quality education, careeropportunities, and a path to residency.Language-related issues cause significant challenges for international graduate students,particularly for students from non-English speaking countries. English language challengescan hinder students' academic success and professional development [21

Additionally, in recent years, 90% ofstudents have been found to use solutions manuals available online or on ‘homework help’platforms to complete homework assignments [4]. While the effective use of solutions manualscould potentially help students be more motivated, learn at a deeper level, and level the playingfield for all students, it can also pose a risk for some students who might not spend adequate timesolving the problem and merely copy from the solutions manuals.Engineering educators have used various techniques like active learning, gamification and game-based learning, hands-on in

He mentioned that hewas the kid that would go around the neighborhood and help with the computers and fix theirproblems even though it was simple tasks in his opinion (like turning off the Wi-Fi and turning itback on). He became interested in engineering through the STEM courses he took in high school,then the coursework and salary for the profession motivated him to pursue an engineeringdegree. Since enrolling at FIU, Alberto says he has experienced an environment of toxicmasculinity: Since STEM is such a male-dominated career, it does have a lot of toxic masculinity and I've noticed that throughout my years at FIU.

Not only did students discuss how theoretical courses like Automata Theory andAssembly Programming were irrelevant to their future career goals, but they also found thecourse topics difficult. In order to enhance students’ learning, instructors can require prerequisitecourses and explore ways to teach courses more effectively.

I have come across some papers that include the experiences of Black students that do not identify as African American, and this has truly helped me find a space that I can relate to. I remind myself of my whole identity and have found ways to integrate who I am into class discussions. I find that consistently acknowledging my own different perspectives and sharing them in class by making relevant connections helps me to shift my training of only seeing my differences as tools for career advancement. Moving forward, I want to look towards other areas of study such as education or psychology that may highlight stories of Caribbean students in their literature

challenge for sociotechnical engineering instruction is the evaluation of itseffects. Some of the difficulty results from the breadth of educators’ goals. Most of these effortsdo not define specific desired outcomes beyond increasing students’ ability to understand “thetechnical” and “the social” as deeply connected, and to appreciate that sociotechnical thinking isan important part of engineering work. That is, sociotechnical engineering programs andinterventions rarely prescribe desired career paths or other, more easily quantifiable goals fortheir students.
