Education, 2016 Engineering Ambassadors Network: Progress in 2015 on Creating a National Network of AmbassadorsSummary and Introduction To solve today’s engineering challenges, we need a wide range of solutions, which can berealized only by having enough engineers with diverse and strong technical backgrounds.Workforce studies have shown that the number of students being educated in STEM (science,technology, engineering, and math) cannot meet projected demands.1 Also, the currentenrollments in engineering are not diverse, especially among women, blacks, and Hispanics.2 Onanother issue, a survey of engineers in industry indicates a compelling need for engineers to havestrong communication skills.3 The
economy will become better decisionmakers in CEPs that are becoming increasingly important in technology-driven societies,domestically and globally.In what follows, we elaborate on the major goals of this project, followed by main activities andresults, various impacts, and future directions.The first goal of this project is to create engineering economy contents on CEP’s suitable asrelevant teaching materials under substantial uncertainties, emphasizing the threshold and timingof critical life-cycle decision making. The next goal is to facilitate many engineering students tobe better able to make critical engineering economy decisions on CEP’s through learning ofrelevant declarative knowledge through implementation of such materials as an

Express respect and thoughtful engagement with people across cultures.These outcomes focus on the development of a global learner mindset which is foundational todeveloping a global engineering competence in students.3. Global Engagement InterventionsThe four global engagement interventions were developed and implemented during the spring2023 semester as detailed below. All students in the four interventions took the surveys at thebeginning (pre) and end (post) of the semester.3.1. International Engineering Case Study in a Quantitative Analysis CourseQuantitative Analysis is an undergraduate Engineering Technology course that introducesstudents to the mathematical techniques
lab results.Group lab reports were due one week after completing the lab.Assessment Our hypothesis for the educational study was case studies can increase student learningand address the various learning styles represented in the course. To evaluate the hypothesis, theassessments were selected to measure three key factors, 1) Student Interest and motivation, 2)course preferences for millennial learners, and 3) increase in student efficacy related to the keyconcepts required by the National Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).Both qualitative and quantitative responses were measured. Students were evaluated usingtraditional metrics, such as lab reports and group presentations, which were an essential part
6corresponding to strongly disagree and 1 corresponding to strongly agree. These statements wereselected from a survey that was published in a National Academy of Engineering report [15].Brief short answer questions were also added to this portion of the survey. For example,participants were asked to describe an engineer to an elementary, middle, or high school studentand to list things that engineers might do in their careers. The third section of the survey wastaken from the Design, Engineering, and Technology (DET) survey, which was designed tomeasure perceptions of engineering and motivation for teaching engineering [16]. Finally, thefourth section of the survey included questions from the Teaching Engineering Self-EfficacySurvey (TESS). This

Students expressed that they are looking to make a change and leave an impact in theworld by advancing technology and society through their work.

with the title, “Technology Innovation: Engineering, Economics, PublicRelations.” The class was composed of twenty-one students, where twelve students were majoring inengineering disciplines, seven students in strategic communications, and two in economics. Forcomparison purposes, the research team selected two traditional civil engineering courses, where thehypothesis was that the engineering students of HEPE course would gather higher levels of learning onnon-technical professional skills compared to traditional groups of engineering students.Comparisons between the HEPE and traditional groups were investigated by applying a Cross-Disciplinary Team Learning (CDTL) framework. The CDTL framework was developed by Lei [2], whichhas three

However, mathematics andscience are inherent to engineering and they form a foundation on which engineering educationis built on. This facilitates the integration of engineering material into P-12 curriculum.Theoretical understandings of how students engage and learn mathematics and science have beenused to shape preliminary thoughts and research studies on P-12 engineering education. Withinthis paper, there will not be discussion dedicated to work on the impact of technology oninformal engineering education.
