. Industry-centered studies over the lasttwo decades show fresh graduates have limited workplace and interpersonal skills [3]. Thisscenario is associated in the literature with the shortage of dedicated engineering courses toincorporate these relevant blends of competencies into students’ coursework.In this study, we explore the efficacy of a sequence of coursework and activities designed by theUniversity of South Florida's Department of Electrical Engineering to support students’professional proficiency and technical skills development. Undergraduate students participatedin a series of Professional Formation of Engineers (PFE) courses and technical courses withinspecialized tracks designed by the department. A sample of students who had taken the

In 2016 a change was made to invite all admitted female-identifying engineeringstudents and institute a selection process that values an essay about what the student anticipatesthey would get from participation in the bridge program. The tenth anniversary of the programwas in the summer of 2018, so a more comprehensive longitudinal study of outcomes forparticipants has been undertaken.As a living program that has been evolved based on formative assessment, the same essentialgoals of increasing the retention, success (measured by GPA) and graduation of

. Continual support throughfinancial incentives and mentorship are important as well as delivering positive messages thattranscend gender stereotypes and emphasize engineering’s ability to help people and to becompatible with family life. Frome et al.20 found that “leaks” in the STEM pipeline were relatedto young women’s perceptions of a lack of occupational flexibility in STEM that would interferewith being able to balance family and career. Pitching engineering to girls must be done in athoughtful and consistent manner within the systems of influence surrounding the student. Educators at the high school and college level and practicing engineers can work togetherlocally to support the development of a community and culture in which there are

Both of thesepapers emphasized how instructors play a crucial role in communicating the relevance of ethicsto professional engineering identity, either by encouraging students to develop their own ethicalcode as a fundamental part of professional development or by leading them to believe that ethicsare ancillary to day-to-day engineering work (and thereby, as well, to engineering identity). Inthis respect, the current state of ethics education in engineering programs appears to be as much,if not more so, the result of HC as of formalized curricular content.One important outlier among our research set bears special mention for its alignment with ourgoals in the present analysis.
