those at thecollege level. For the three principles: outreach and recruitment, support services, and inclusiveenvironment, the authors investigated the existing barriers and ways to address them. In theprocess, this group of researchers articulated some critical issues that prevent diverse andeconomically disadvantaged undergraduate students from seeking a graduate degree inengineering. Realizing this, a Grand Valley State University (GVSU) team comprised ofadministrators and faculty members sought to build a comprehensive program that incorporatesall of the aforementioned structures and others. This paper describes the development strategy ofsuch a program that culminated with an NSF award.Development of Program StructureIt is understood that

Over a period of four years, STEP participants had theopportunity to tour several STEM industries in the metropolitan area.The 3+8 undergraduate research component of STEP provided participants with an 11-weekresearch experience. The 3-week session introduced students to research through partnering witha faculty member at the 2-year institution; this was followed by an 8-week research experienceguided by research faculty members at 4-year institutions. In both components, students worked20-25 hours per week. Students participating in the 3+8 program gained experience in collectingdata, monitoring their progress, solving problems and troubleshooting

Althoughthese pioneers helped fund different kinds of engineering education work (research, teaching,and learning), they all described their influence more in terms of legitimacy for engineeringeducation than in monetary terms.Kemnitzer’s account focused on supporting early-career faculty through an NSF program thatwas the precursor to the current CAREER program.

Interviews conducted engaged Penn State graduate students, faculty, panelists, andconnections from their home institutions’ alumni networks. In the final week of the program,students shared their experience with the larger group. Participants reported positive interactionswith their interviewee, with many of the interviewees offering to review a resumé, connect themwith someone in their company or network or alert them to the potential of a career or internshipopportunity.Scientific and Research Skills

Reverse Mentoring: In this type of mentoring relationship, the mentee takes on a mentoring role for the mentor. This can be useful when the mentor is seeking to learn more about the experiences and perspectives of the mentee, such as when a senior faculty member mentors a graduate student from a diverse cultural background.There are several types of mentoring relationships that can be used to support graduatestudents in STEM fields. Each type has its own advantages and can be used in differentsituations depending on the needs of the mentee and the goals of the mentoring relationship.Components for successThere

IntroductionAs organized in the Cold War and perpetuated with funding from federal agencies such as theNSF, NIH, etc. [1], [2], traditional graduate student research is often limited to an academicscope--for the advancement of graduate advisors, the continuation of students’ academic careers,and/or to be published in academic journals. Yet this knowledge rarely reaches impoverishedcommunities in need of research findings and undergraduate students eager to turn graduate-levelresearch into design and service-learning projects, especially in languages and formats that canmake it accessible and

and challenges of implementingthe first year in an experimental pilot program. As part of a set of initiatives to transform highereducation at Purdue University, the Polytechnic Institute (PI) was designed to be a multi-disciplinary, hands-on, competency-based experience for undergraduate students in technologyprograms. In Spring 2014, the PI began recruiting students, and in Fall 2014, the programopened its doors to its first cohort. The faculty who had taken a year to design and develop thefirst year curriculum eagerly awaited their new mentees. However, students came in with theirown hopes and concerns, which impacted their desire to join and remain in the program.Students were not alone in their decision-making. They were guided and

Finally, high ability students have been found to shift to majors that result inmore profitable professional pathways and lower ability students shift to “easier majors”7.Student ability and their expectation of future earning potential were reported as importantfactors in the selection of a college major; however, these perceptions may have errors thatwould influence major change8. Social Cognitive Career Theory is based on the idea that careerdevelopment is a process related to self-exploration and choice, but that there can be barriers thatconfound decision making.

New living conditions, routines, and challenging classes allcontribute to the stress of undergraduate students in engineering [6]. Students that have higherresilience have been shown to have better mental health and well-being, better educationaloutcomes, and better employability [4, 8, 12].Exploration of these theories specifically in engineering contexts is limited.

When engineering and education students develop lessonplans collaboratively, they share expertise from their respective disciplines with each other. Theyalso bring personal experiences as students of a particular gender and background, withparticular interests. These perspectives inform their decision making as they collaborativelydesign lessons to engage their fifth/sixth grade partners. This practice integrating multipleperspectives is essential for engineers tackling complex interdisciplinary problems and futureteachers addressing the needs of an increasingly diverse student population.This study aims to answer the following research questions

Do participants’ critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity/problem solving change from pre- to post-semester in an engineering design capstone course? 2. Do participants’ self-ratings and reflections throughout the semester align with any quantitative changes resulting from question 1? 3. How do students perceive their growth in communication

Today, only a very smallpercentage of engineers and scientists who are involved in research are exposed to technologycommercialization training or activity. At many research universities, the primary role for facultyis very oriented towards scientific production, more than either teaching or entrepreneurialengagement. Many individual and institutional factors are believed to influence academicresearchers’ decisions regarding whether to engage in academic entrepreneurship, and whether tocontinue to stay involved. Therefore, increasing participation requires a comprehensiveunderstanding of academic researcher motivations.Motivation for EntrepreneurshipMotivation is defined as “a set of

In Fall 2014, atthe professor's request, this part was transferred to the librarians, who have been in charge of allthe pedagogical contents of the workshop ever since. However, at Polytechnique Montréal, onlya professor can be the coordinator of a credited course or workshop.
