Students’ engagement in their field as wellas their plans to pursue an engineering career or engineering graduate education is determined inpart by an alignment between their personal and professional interests and values in engineeringand curricular messages about what engineering practice includes. For some students, thepotential to leverage engineering for social good is a key motivation for pursuing work in thefield [12

Our ME programdoes not have required co-op experiences, though over 75% of graduating seniors consistentlyreport having completed at least one engineering work experience. A limitation we haveobserved with our current co-op/internship system is that a large majority of students experienceonly one or two types of roles and industries before making decisions about their career options.This seems to lead to bias in decision making, where either one good or one bad experience hasan outsized effect on career decisions.

Sketching is a valuable skill for en-gineering students, and also difficult for instructors to teach and provide individual attention tostudents. Students receive real-time personalized feedback on the sketches they draw using theITS.
