students from across campus build professional skills,gain experience in teaching and research, and develop relationships across disciplines and degreeprograms [12].Two of these cohort programs focus specifically on leadership development: the GraduateStudent Leadership Academy [13] is an eight-week exercise in self-reflection, skill development,and teamwork to solve problems and build community on campus. The Graduate LeadershipFellows program is a year-long experience that encourages “graduate student leaders to engagein change-oriented projects. Fellows aim to increase belonging and community within theircollege or specific populations of students, and their projects increase graduate student well-being, inclusion, and ultimately success” [14
of applications that were introduced in the workshop.Upon completion of the workshop, the participants were given an eight-question exit post-trainingsurvey shown in Figure 2. There were six quantitative questions using a five point or a three-pointLikert scale as well as two qualitative questions. The two qualitative questions were also used aspedagogical tools based on experiential learning best practices. Question 7’s goal was to elicit apositive self-reflection while Question 8 reinforced learning through internalization andsummarization. 1. Exiting this workshop, I learned something new about AI concepts, applications, and ethics (1 - strongly disagree to 5 - strongly agree). 2. I have a better understanding of AI and how to

They are typically discussed in negotiations as discussions occur, during interviewsand as on-site tours are conducted.Within Table III the means of the total packages and the standard deviations are described.Notably, the means vary from $234,747 to $398,418 in size but the standard deviations areperhaps the most interesting in CEE and MAE. The standard deviations of $85,994 within CEEcohort and $87,875 in the MAE cohort were large. ECE is close behind with a standard deviationof $65,735. MAE and ECE generated the most federal grant funding and CEE was third duringthe period [20]. The start-up package sizes don’t reflect the federal grant funding acquired
region and beyond. Many of our citizens, however, AfricanAmericans in particular, were left behind as de jure segregation prevented African Americansfrom enrolling into ETSU. Only court orders, especially Brown v. Board of Education, finallyopened the door to integration. African American faculty did not exist on the campus prior to themid-to-late 1970s. And the institution struggled to hire and retain faculty into the 1990s. ETSU,by the end of the 20th century, increasingly reflected a world that was rapidly changing. Thoseadvancements began with racial diversity but increasingly included gender diversity, sexualdiversity, differing abilities, religious diversity, and ethnic diversity. ETSU is more diverse todaythan at any other time in its
example, the construction industry has been utilizing old laserscanning technology more recently than before. This does not reflect right away in thecurriculum because of how laser scans are employed in the industry and how they changed frombeing used as building layouts to developing point clouds of existing buildings. This motivatedthis paper to build a dedicated concentration on introducing BIM, developing foundational andadvanced courses on VDC, and implementing the knowledge base in the capstone course.ObjectivesThis paper aims to identify the potential for the faculty to perform externships during summersemesters to develop concentrations that are essential skills for the future construction industryworkforce.

Final program project: The enrollment students were from different departments, we put them into 5 interdisciplinary groups, each group had 4 students. They collaborated on a term project to be submitted at the end of the program, promoting an innovative environment within these small groups. Their progress in the project was evaluated every 2 weeks, fostering collaboration between students with diverse backgrounds, such as medical and engineering students.- Figure 5: UI Program evaluation strategy.The core elements of the Ultimate Innovation Program are

% of the variance in performance. The greatest weight inexplaining performance is given by academic self-efficacy, thus the perceived confidence inthe ability to learn, demonstrate, and apply course content should be strengthened. The results lead to reflect that the academic environment should promote activities thatcan strengthen students' self-efficacy so that they can confidently enjoy the course and, thus,succeed in school and professionally. Important limitations of the study are highlighted, the main one being the sample, whichcame from a single institution and was not very diverse in terms of where the students camefrom age and engineering course.

However,participation in the STEM workforce still does not reflect population demographics.The research literature provides an evidence-base that early STEM experiences canimpact K-12 students intention to enroll in STEM degree programs. Over the last twodecades pre-college engineering programs and pathways have been developed toprepare K-12 students for engineering degree programs at the post-secondary level. Asecondary goal of these pathways was to broaden interest in engineering professionsand diversify the engineering pipeline. Pre-college programs that provide a positiveSTEM experience may increase the pipeline and diversity of students interested inpursuing STEM at the postsecondary level.

The lectures are curated to cover thefundamentals of a broad set of topics, serving as starting points for further exploration. Thoughpresented in person, these seminars are also available as recorded, asynchronous lectures, whichstudents can watch at their own pace. Making the seminars available virtually allows studentsgreater flexibility in learning the material, a worthwhile objective given the busy curriculummost of the students are enrolled in. Brief reviews of the seminars are offered during the weeklyclass meetings, allowing students to reflect on the material and ask questions in person. 2.

. Although data was reviewed from theU.S. Department of Education’s National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) IntegratedPostsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) databases in addition to data provided by thesubject schools, the data analyzed for this study did not include enrollment or retention ratesbecause the schools did not report or publish those rates specifically for their constructionmanagement programs. Exploration of the existence of a relationship between minority enrollmentand minority graduation rates could prove useful as it is unknown if the number of minoritygraduates reflects low participation or low completion in the subject programs.The Louisiana Workforce Commission estimates that the need for construction managers

This can reduce issues that are being caused bynot having enough foresight of the engineering development process ahead of implementation.Future WorkAllowing students to experience and master situations that reflect real life is the core goal ofauthentic learning. According to some academics, emerging technologies are particularly adeptat supporting inquiry-based learning environments by developing "genuine" science learningenvironments and, perhaps more significantly, by involving students in scientific inquiry [34].The capacity of augmented reality (AR) technology to engage students and create a setting forgenuine

The networking tools componentswere meant to provide the students with hands-on experience and familiarity with networkingtools. Homework assignments were graded as “high pass”, “low pass”, “revision needed”, or“fail”. The homeworks consist of questions labeled “low pass” (LP) and “high pass” (HP).Students must pass all the LP questions to receive a “low pass” in the homework. Students mustpass all the “low pass” questions and a fraction of the HP questions as specified in advance toreceive a “high pass” in the homework. If a student receives a “low pass” or “revision needed”grade, the student may revise and resubmit their homework

While all eight dimensions of wellness are present in ENGR 2100, they are notequally emphasized. Table 1 shows the portion of course activities (in-classdiscussions/activities and out-of-class assignments) that integrate each wellness dimension.Totals in Table 1 sum to over 100%, reflecting the fact that many activities incorporate morethan one dimension of wellness. It should be noted that the degree to which specific wellnessdimensions are independent vs. overlapping or confounding is an open question in the literature.Thus, the information in Table 1 is helpful in understanding the
