lecture.IntroductionThis research paper explores the ways in which engineering postdoctoral scholars describe theappeal of pursuing a career in the professoriate. 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

instead exhibited non-cooperative behavior.The author asserted that these individuals thought that collaborative behavior indicatedweakness. As these convictions revealed themselves on projects, expectations were diminished,and distrust then ensued. Consequently, this distrust among project participants eventually led topoor communication, unfruitful conflict, and reduced performance. Many members of theconstruction industry understand this dilemma and attribute the problem to an unwillingness onthe part of the project participants to behave in a collaborative manner and this gives a startingpoint for research regarding how to promote more collaborative attitudes among constructionparticipants within the construction industry.25BackgroundIn 1607

Following the first industrial revolution, research began onunderstanding people and collaboration as an important aspect for productivity in engineering.During the Taylorism era of the early 19th century, relationship between supervisors and workerswere established and cooperation was ensured to ensure efficiency in production [2]. However,the decision-making process were carried out by supervisors only. As the world shifted to thesecond industrial revolution, teams were formed with leaders and team members coordinatingtasks together and helping each other to reach team goals [2]. Leaders had the authority to directorders to team members ensuring proper coordination and control of tasks. By the beginning ofthe third industrial revolution

This has potential negative effects on: collaborative learning, instructor facilitation,and a student’s ability to seek and receive help in the moment [43]. Further, opportunities foractive learning and interactive experiences are limited due to lack of access to labs, equipment,and learning environments specifically designed for interactive learning [44].

The ingrained collaboration required in designteams, as well as the cross-disciplinary interaction of students, academic mentors/advisors andindustry sponsors, is the most realistic analogue to the full end-to-end design cycle currentlypresent in an academic setting.

Faculty act as moderators attempting to keep the students on track, and within some reasonable budget. The big question for this project was whether to use an equatorial3 or altitude azimuth4 design for the telescope’s rotation. The equatorial is a far simpler design for tracking the stars as it only needs to rotate about one axis once it is set up. However, the mechanical issues were far more difficult, and an altitude azimuth arrangement was chosen. Fortunately for this project, the students continued to work on the design issues through the fall semester while they were doing their last
