]. Founded in 2013, the focus of this capstoneprogram is to develop innovative technical solutions to pressing clinical and translational healthchallenges. Undergraduate and graduate students across engineering disciplines (e.g.,mechanical, electrical, biomedical, chemical, and materials science) are partnered with healthprofessionals (e.g., physicians, nurses, dentists, therapists, pharmacists) to solve unmet healthchallenges. In the first quarter, teams of 3–5 students work closely with the health professional(s)who originally proposed the unmet health challenge to develop a deep understanding of theunmet health need, including potential markets, stakeholder psychologies, prior solutions,intellectual property considerations, regulatory
collection. Through GORP, the observer can select codes forobserved classroom activity for both the instructor(s) and students. Observations are coded in 2-minute intervals until the class session is over. If the observer makes a mistake, they can note itduring the next interval, and adjust the data accordingly by hand, after class. Data isautomatically analyzed in GORP and can be exported to a spreadsheet for further analysis.The COPUS evaluation process was also part of the development of this Work-in-Progress.

involved pilot testing and refining concise, generalized measures of the variables ofinterest. The leadership role confidence and risk orientation measures presented in this sectionwere designed based on the literature, tested in advance with a smaller sample of 99 respondents,and then refined based on pilot test respondent feedback about clarity. We believe this approachaligns with this paper’s scope of testing unifying hypotheses that support and generalize uponprior findings.In conceptualizing a leadership confidence variable, we utilize a “role confidence” approachsimilar to Cech et al.’s measurement of confidence toward achieving professional outcomes [40].We designed our measure as a means of differentiating among students who felt they were

the students if they value it, and if theyvalue it with respect to how it is being used. Certainly, there is literature backing both sides ofthe coin; for and against, online systems and traditional homework methods [3], [4], [7]–[9],[11]. Students however, are clearly asking for both, and indicate that both will probably behelpful. Similar hybrid approaches have proven to be successful in other disciplines [14].

become reflective engineers who usetheir phronesis to take conflicts and dilemmas more seriously in order to meet the ultimate goalof engineering: to find ways to make the world a better place.Reflection in Engineering Education Literature Various forms of reflection have surely been practiced and promoted by engineeringeducators around the world for centuries. However, considering that “engineering educationresearch (EER) generally lacked definition as a discipline until the late 1990s and early 2000s”(Johri & Olds, 2014) relevant literature on graduate-level engineering education prior to the1990’s can be difficult to find. This review will focus primarily on literature of the past decadebecause it is both more readily available

These divisionsare based on Karuppoor et al.27’s design philosophy, emphasizing the

to write this off as an historical relic, statements such as these have gone un-critiqued in the last 20 years. It should also be noted that another kind of study exists: thosethat compare and contrast male and female department heads or examine women in academicleadership positions12,64,68-71. While presenting another important approach to studyingrelationships between gender and department heads, such studies are not central to theanalysis at hand.Fourth, a discourse of fairness permeates the literature. As the following quotationsdemonstrate, many publications emphasize that the head has an obligation to act ‘fairly’ andthat (s)he will be most successful if (s)he makes ‘fair’ decisions.
