’ academic and personal worlds; therefore, advising cultivatestheir holistic development. Well advised students are (a) more likely to enroll, (b) less likely totake classes that do not contribute towards graduation, (c) more likely to enjoy college, (d) moreapt to persist to graduation. The process of academic advising is important to institutions ofhigher education and the role of the academic advisor is critical to student retention and studentsatisfaction with the institution (Gerdes & Mallinckrodt, 1994; Corts, Lounsbury, Saudargas, &Tatum, 2000; Thompson, Orr, Thompson, & Grover, 2007; Hester, 2008).Academic Advisors in engineering and engineering technology programs play a major role byproviding students timely and accurate

Kolb[1] defines experiential learning as an iterative process involving conceptualization, activeexperimentation, concrete experience, and reflective observation. Experiential learning has alsobeen identified as an

Workers in an industry form a community whichshares and encodes knowledge, forming the basis for an identity that can be seen and understoodby future professionals. Professional societies have an important boundary spanning role to playin this cycle since they promote identity to prospective members and provide community supportfor existing professionals.The Evolution of AM as a Discipline and a ProfessionAM’s bears many hallmarks of prevailing theories [e.g., 7, 14, 15] of disciplinary andprofessional evolution from engineering and engineering technology (ET). Since mid-1900s,engineering has evolved in its technical as well as conceptual aspects. Figure 3 provides anoverview timeline of engineering

who might consider the opportunities of anengineering career, a collaboration was established in North Dakota that allowed thedevelopment of a pathway for Native American students from Tribally ControlledColleges / Universities, TCU’s, to obtain an engineering degree at North Dakota StateUniversity, NDSU. The details of this program are covered in another publication [4].This collaboration functions across the entirety of North Dakota, which means distancebetween collaborators can be in excess of 300 miles. And for nearly half of theacademic year this distance is made more tortuous by some of the most challengingweather in the lower 48 states.
