Society for Engineering Education, 2020 “Adversary or Ally”: Undergraduate Engineering Students’ Perceptions of FacultyAbstractThis research paper examines students’ perceptions of faculty and how it influences their identitytrajectory. First-year students enter undergraduate engineering education with rich stories of howthey came to choose engineering as a career pathway. Over time, the culture of engineering andnetwork of peers, faculty members, and professionals shape students' stories and identitytrajectories. How students “cast” faculty members in their story, often as helpful or hurtful actors,have implications for their identity trajectory, success, and, ultimately, retention in engineering. Inthis

Wankat and Oreovicz22 present an excellent review—they providemany details and summarize the finding with a side-by-side comparison of novice and expertperformances. Resnik9 (paraphrasing Larkin et al.6) presents a lucid summary of expertperformance “Recent research in science problem solving, for example, shows that experts donot respond to problems as they are presented—writing equations for every relationshipdescribed and then using routine procedures for manipulating equations. Instead, theyreinterpret the problems, recasting them in terms of general scientific principles until thesolutions become almost self-evident.” Experts

In terms of self-appraisal, a general patternof loss emerges throughout the engineering education. Women enter engineering reporting highlevels of self-confidence and self-esteem 22. Their self-confidence declines precipitously duringthe first year and, although it does begin to elevate, it will never again reach the same heights 10.During this time, women compare themselves unfavorably to their male peers and judgethemselves more harshly than the men judge themselves 23.

-STEP is to build a community for STEP transferstudents on the CC campuses which would then be actualized on the UNL campus upon transfer.It was anticipated that the creation of this community would occur through various studentsupport activities such as the Summer Transfer Enrichment Program, Parent OrientationProgram, and a peer mentoring program. The UNL-STEP team has found it challenging tocreate a STEP identity and (subsequently) a STEP community at UNL which has resulted in aselection of student support activities becoming non-operational. It is not clear why students do not have an understanding of or a connection to STEPonce they transfer to UNL. However, it can be assumed that students who transfer to UNL viathe STEP pathway

The fundamental success-enabling principle of an MEP model is the idea of building an education environment thatfacilitates collaborative learning, which has been shown through extensive research17 to improvestudents’ satisfaction with the learning experience, self-esteem, academic performance, andretention. Based on this principle, MEPs eliminate the causes of retention problems and lowacademic performance: lack of peer support, lack of role models, and low faculty expectations.MEPs foster student involvement and motivation through four programmatic structures:clustering of students in common sections of their key

It islikely that every engineering member of the academy has been asked the same questions.Questions asked included: what’s a good college for engineering?

These discussions revealed that characterformation can take many forms and that assessment of these interventions remains challenging atthe classroom and university-wide level. This workshop has led to a working group at NotreDame to rethink the approach to character formation for engineering students across the Collegeof Engineering.
