supporting student success. In this work, weexamine the differing needs of returners, those who have been out of school for at least five yearsbetween their undergraduate and graduate degrees, and direct pathway students, those who havehad less than a five-year gap between completing their undergraduate degree and beginning theirgraduate work, in engineering master’s programs. A large-scale national survey was conducted,which included questions on many topics including advising. While there were many areas inwhich the two populations were the same, several key differences emerged, with returnersplacing a higher value on course planning topics than direct pathway students did, and less valueon advising focused on plans beyond the completion of the

This paper aims toinvestigate whether construction programs should improve their program-level SLOsassessments to meet the AC exam criteria and whether such improvements will help studentspass the AC exam. Data were collected for two groups of students from Spring 2018 to Spring2020. The first group of students was assessed using the original program-level assessment. Thesecond group of students was assessed using improved program-level assessment developedbased on the AC exam guidelines. Descriptive and statistical analysis were conducted and theresults indicated that these actions and the improvement to the assessment plan can effectivelyimpact and improve the students' AC exam results.

of a student, a plan was designed to integrate and advance what students are learning from the first common year to their sophomore, junior, and senior year with more emphasis, given to programming/ data science, Bio-inspired engineering design class, and ethics & humanities. To effectively integrate these courses into the upper-level courses, a group of faculty members from different engineering departments, called disciples, were designated. The main duties of these disciples are: 1. providing relevant examples from each engineering major related to computational thinking, bio-inspired design, ethics, and humanities to the faculty members teaching the common first year (FCY). 2. monitoring the advancement and integration of

In-person recruiting events were planned in the service areas ofeach of the community colleges and in a 10-county region surrounding the university. Theoriginal plan for programming was to offer special events and speakers on each campusthroughout the academic year so that all of the scholars could meet each other and learn moreabout the engineering profession. When events were held on the university campus, the goal wasto showcase the laboratories and programs available once students complete their associate’sdegree and transfer and for them to begin developing relationships
