For example, as a pluralist theory of ethicalreasoning, MFT helps to explain how different, competing goods can conflict, resulting in thekinds of conflicts of interests that are central to engineering ethics and other forms ofprofessional ethics [1]–[3].Planned analyses and hypothesesIn this study, MFQ and ESIT scores were treated as outcome variables, and education anddemographic information – such as gender, age, and field of study – were treated as inputvariables.

mentorship programs.IntroductionWithin graduate education, there is a lack of proper mentorship and mentoring programs atinstitutional and college levels [1]. Mentorship is so highly correlated to student success andprogram satisfaction [2], as such, there is a critical need to establish and improve mentorshipprograms at these institutions. The National Academy of Sciences suggests that with improvedmentoring, “students' educational experience, morale, career planning and placement, andprofessional competence” [3, p. 65] will be enhanced. However, for this mentoring relationshipto flourish and be satisfactory, it requires effort by both parties which would ultimately create a‘mutually beneficial’ partnership between the faculty mentor and the

The SMART goal and plan should be completed by the end ofOctober. Project PIs now meet with mentors to discuss the goals for their mentees to make sure itis reasonable. In addition, we survey mentors monthly to document their activities and meet withmentors once a month to gather feedback, identify potential problems, and share successfulstories or tips. Based on the monthly report from peer mentors during the 2020-2021 academicyear, we have observed positive changes between mentors and mentees.4.2 Research ExperienceUndergraduate research is one of the thirteen

Additionally, if a student fails one or more of these pre-requisite chains,the student’s graduation will be delayed by at least one more semester. Another factor thataggravates this situation is that most of the higher division courses are only offered once a yearat CSU Chico and are not offered during the summer or at other universities across the nation.Therefore, the importance of passing the math courses at the scheduled semester is evident of thestudy plan to reduce the time-to-graduation.About 19.1% of the incoming freshman and transfer students in the College of Engineering andComputer Science did not enroll in Calculus as their first math course in

Given the previous figures on students’ career plan changes between entry and graduation, aswell as the stigma that BME bachelor’s degree graduates experience with industry careerplacement barriers, more research is needed to understand students’ perceptions of BME industrycareer pathways, particularly at a later stage in the degree.
