Criteria.1 This proposal defines the educational objectives as “statements thatdescribe the expected accomplishments of graduates during the first few years after graduation.”The survey responses for Penn State alumni two to three years following graduation show thatdifferent kinds of achievement and measures of accomplishment apply to the different early-career paths. This raises questions that may need to be considered for curriculum design. Forinstance: What actions should we be taking to prepare our students for the broader aspects oftheir professional careers? What competencies and abilities should we emphasize in acurriculum constrained by a limited time frame? Examining the data from our surveys of recentgraduates, which include information

researchers may have looked at pedagogy in other areas of CS, the specific challenges related to computer systems research have not been addressed much. Yet the problem is real and acute – single-digit participation from women, negligible numbers from other underrepresented groups. Thus, focusing on techniques that work well for those traditionally put-off by systems is imperative since systems are ubiquitous in every important aspect of CS today (artificial intelligence, cloud computing, security, etc.). This report describes a large diverse undergraduate research group in computer systems and the results of a study utilizing a conceptual framework, High Impact Practices, to understand how the design of the research group is perceived by students

That approach is used to study theintersections between students’ network of academic practice and the network of industry-basedpractice that they are preparing to enter. Specifically, it looks at how industry-based problemsand examples are represented in material aspects of students’ academic practice throughhomework, lecture slides, and other course materials.The study was designed to provide a foundation for a new initiative being launched in Spring2019.

practice?We consider one aspect of professional practice—failure. Despite many improvement efforts byorganizations, systems engineering failures continue to occur. Previous research identified a set ofcommon causes for these project failures. Does PBL provide students with opportunities to failsafely, and thereby learn to avoid failure in professional practice? We present here an approach tocompare the rates of occurrence of failure causes in student team projects with industry projects.By comparing the occurrence rates, we achieve our first research goal to evaluate whether PBLoffers sufficient opportunities of failure to students. Out of the ten failure causes we examined, wefound that four are underrepresented in PBL, two of which are
