2014 report indicate thatneurodiverse individuals make up only around 3% of science and engineering doctoral degreerecipients [10].Graduate students face a unique set of challenges when compared to undergraduate students,with faculty advisors playing a large role in student success. Several studies have noted specificchallenges related to advisors, including work-life balance, which may be impacted by facultyexpectations, and hierarchical faculty-student relationships [11]-[13]. Satterfield et al.’s [14]literature review focused on the experiences of graduate students during their studies andexplored how individual factors (the influence of the student’s advisor), programmatic factors(isolation and teaching assistantships), and external

They indicate that the students’ perceptions of the learning that occurred throughcooperative education has a direct and significant impact on their development in the elevenABET attributes. Within all engineering disciplines surveyed, and without special treatment,cooperative education shows itself to be a strong partner, along with traditional academiccoursework and laboratories, in the development of these attributes in the engineering graduate.The authors propose that colleges who

For their senior projects, students apply thebackground and skills accumulated through coursework in researching a problem, for whichthen a solution is investigated, designed and implemented. A significant part of the knowledgeand skills needed for the projects are straightforward learning from the actual courses taken inthe program, but often new skills are needed, specific to the project topic selected, and studentsneed to apply their learning skills in researching a new subject, or getting familiar with a newpiece of hardware or software platform

of the compounding errors that yield catastrophic results. Morerecently, a second approach has emerged in the teaching and scholarship and stands in starkcontrast to aspirations for greater control. This approach seeks to foster reflexivity and learningabout one’s own context and broader societal implications of engineering practice. Robbins [8]offers the notion of the “reflexive practitioner” as an emergent theme in engineering ethics.However, there are few examples for how such reflexivity can be demonstrated in the educationand maturation of engineers. This project aims to address that knowledge gap in a small, but important way, byassessing reflective writing by engineers in an undergraduate program. This paper offers datafrom 65
