Scholarship concerning engineering careertrajectories presently lack the depth necessary to understand the arc of the career from student topostdoctoral scholar to professor (Jaeger et al., 2017; St. Clair et al., 2017; Su, 2013). Aninvestigation of this trajectory is critical for those invested in increasing the number ofunderrepresented minorities (URMs; African American, Latinx, and Native American) andwomen entering the professoriate and earning tenure. Researchers have found postdoctoraltraining is crucial for a scholar’s productivity and ability to compete for professorships (Andalibet al., 2018

perspective, we can also usediscourse identity to determine students’ internalization of the discipline’s ethical canons anddisciplinary identity based on how they discursively position themselves in relation to the valuesof the profession. For example, research conducted by Dannels [17] and Douglas and colleagues[43] explored the discursive practices utilized by students throughout a variety of academiccontexts. They found that students did not perceive themselves as engineers; they perceivedthemselves as students working for a grade that would lead them to graduate from an engineeringprogram. In these studies, these students utilized discourse to maintain their student identitiesand separated themselves from engineers. To strengthen the link

These methods were well-suited for teaching prospective scientists and engineersbecause they focus on cooperative sharing of ideas as well as healthy discussion and resolution ofproblematic issues [10, 11]. PBL-structured case studies promote higher-order learning skills, suchas application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. During case study-based learning modules,students were presented with a selected case to resolve the core issue by critically evaluating theinformation they had researched. They had opportunities to find the latest developments in a fieldand associate them with most recent social issues. This approach overcame
