forfuture success even with low college entrance exams.These previous studies have provided the basic question for the new study; are learning stylescorrelated with discipline? Felder and Silverman (1988) sought to identify mismatches betweenlearning styles and the teaching styles of engineering faculty through a survey instrumentdeveloped from the learning style model from David Kolb (1984). The Felder and Silvermanmodel of learning styles is exemplified by a survey instrument developed called the Index ofLearning Styles (ILS) (1988). This instrument will be used as a basis for this study as well. TheILS includes active or reflective, sensing or intuitive, visual or verbal, and sequential or global.The survey instrument builds upon Kolb’s learning

The paper will focus on several engineering graduate students whoparticipated in a grant linking their education, research, and career development. Thedevelopment of the graduate students in the program is rooted in a 20 hour a week commitmentto develop and implement self-created, engineering and research related lessons in local highschools throughout the academic year.

While generalcollege writing courses are crucial to their development as well-rounded, educated individuals,engineering students can struggle to see the connection between some Platonic concepts inclassical disciplines like Rhetoric and their audience focus for a proposal. While this connectionis likely obvious for an instructor in the Classics, it might not be obvious to engineering students.Pivoting toward more applied communication courses or content can help reinforce students’integrative understanding of engineering communication and their responsibilities for clarity,accuracy, and conciseness [16] - [17].

Within this context, students should understandthat engineering is a creative process whereby basic scientific principles are applied in a judiciousand effective manner to develop engineered products.Such coordination can take the form of parallel teaching of applied science and engineeringscience courses with a focus on the content of these courses.
