In addition toresearch hours, students are required to attend monthly professional development sessionsfocused on best practices in research, program deliverables, and community building. Exampletopics include maximizing your research experience, communication, research ethics, academicwriting, poster design, and an overview to graduate school. At the conclusion of the program,students are required to present their research as a poster and write an associated researchabstract.To apply for the program, students connect with a faculty member and write a short 1 to 2 pageresearch proposal describing the type of work they will be doing, the importance of the research,and a

This observationemphasizes the need for more early education about positive career expectations and the work ittakes to achieve the valued engineering career. While programs, like AcES, often focus onhelping students use academic resources, building cohorts to facilitate feelings of inclusion, andinteracting with faculty, mentors, and practicing engineers to facilitate the development ofpositive career expectations, perhaps there are additional characteristics that students need aswell. Perhaps first-year engineering programs should also consider ways to help students toadopt a growth mindset [12] and a strong work ethic to prepare them for the workload they willlikely experience.

My communications background allowed me to explain that information in a different way to a couple of the other students and show how that education is applied in industry.
