Projects are conducted during the spring semester and supported by universitylaboratories in the iterative design and integration of laboratory environmental monitoring Pods.High school students engage local community members by monitoring environmental conditionsin local schools, businesses, agricultural settings, homes, and government sites. Communitymembers assist with access to experimental sites, materials, and project promotion. Communitymembers are invited to the symposium. Two mentors will travel monthly to each school in thespring semester and support projects remotely via an on-line curriculum (See Component 2).

The studentexperience is largely to solve problems in a methodical fashion, and accessing knowledgethrough sequential presentation of textbook material. Though laboratory assignments arecommon in undergraduate engineering, historically, the majority of the student experience hasconsisted of strictly following prescribed steps to arrive at a predetermined conclusion. In theirseminal work with science, engineering, and math undergraduates Seymour and Hewitt found themajority of engineering teaching to be a deductive transmission of facts, controlled by theteacher, and leaving little room for students to understand

Geotechnical Engineering Concepts Most civil engineering programs require an introductory geotechnical engineering coursethat has a required laboratory component. Geotechnical Engineering involves fundamentalconcepts associated with soil mechanics, which are difficult for undergraduates to grasp usingconventional lecture methods. While engineering students are capable of ‘utilizing’ equations tosolve geotechnical problems, they have a difficult time ‘comprehending’ the equations,fundamental concepts, and the engineering application. The ability to reach higher levels ofcomprehension is contingent on mastery of the foundation material. It is important that facultyuse diverse teaching methods and encourage students to elevate their level of

Drawing from the results of this study and a review of theliterature on graduate student stressors, we developed the Stressors for Doctoral StudentsQuestionnaire for Engineering (SDSQ-E) and administered it twice, in fall 2022 and in spring2023.

Often this kind of preparedness centered on a specific tool (e.g. knowing how to use a particular CAD program or piece of laboratory equipment), and was most closely related to demonstrated competence. ● Participants also perceived themselves prepared when they encountered situations that were “familiar” or “similar” to their prior experiences. For example, they felt prepared to talk with a vendor at work if they had talked with a vendor during their capstone project. ● Finally, participants perceived themselves prepared when they had a strategy for
