Undergraduate research integrationinto curriculum promises benefits: student engagement and development of employer-desiredskills such as communication, teamwork, analytical reasoning, and the application of knowledgeto real-world settings. This paper details the FLC’s efforts to incorporate more research intoseven undergraduate classes by using discovery learning pedagogies and to begin compiling alist of best practices to share with others. The fact that these efforts span different undergraduategrade levels and disciplines offers key insights for any undergraduate program. Further,discussions about the formation and collaboration of the FLC at this university presents a guideto others for starting one of their

Excellent teaching in those settings had been generallyoverlooked in the literature, and much of the existing research on effective teaching was focusedon instructors’ actions – what they did in their classrooms

Scholarship concerning engineering careertrajectories presently lack the depth necessary to understand the arc of the career from student topostdoctoral scholar to professor (Jaeger et al., 2017; St. Clair et al., 2017; Su, 2013). Aninvestigation of this trajectory is critical for those invested in increasing the number ofunderrepresented minorities (URMs; African American, Latinx, and Native American) andwomen entering the professoriate and earning tenure. Researchers have found postdoctoraltraining is crucial for a scholar’s productivity and ability to compete for professorships (Andalibet al., 2018

perspective, we can also usediscourse identity to determine students’ internalization of the discipline’s ethical canons anddisciplinary identity based on how they discursively position themselves in relation to the valuesof the profession. For example, research conducted by Dannels [17] and Douglas and colleagues[43] explored the discursive practices utilized by students throughout a variety of academiccontexts. They found that students did not perceive themselves as engineers; they perceivedthemselves as students working for a grade that would lead them to graduate from an engineeringprogram. In these studies, these students utilized discourse to maintain their student identitiesand separated themselves from engineers. To strengthen the link
