ABET Criterion 3 [6] (designated with a triangle in Figure 1). Ideally, programs would be ableto assess the achievement of ABET and EOP outcomes simultaneously. The ABET outcomesaligned with the EOP outcomes are: 1. An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics. 2. An ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental and economic factors effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan

career and family areconsidered. Using inductive and deductive methods (Silverman, 1993; Stake, 1995), interviewtranscripts were analyzed using the ideal worker conceptual framework (Kossek et al., 2021).Two themes arose: (1) STEM postdoctoral women receive messages suggesting they mustsacrifice family pursuits for an academic career, and (2) positive modeling and support forbalancing career and family are vital for retaining STEM postdoctoral women in theprofessoriate pathway. These findings illustrate a systemic conflict for STEM postdoctoralscholar women. They describe a necessity to sacrifice family desires, yet positive modeling andsupport for balancing career and family send messages suggesting it is possible to plan for both.This research

both years, the instructors observed adip in engagement in the second iteration of Creation Crates. We believe this is largely due tolightened pandemic-related restrictions in the summer of 2021 (as compared to the summer of2020); since students had the freedom to pursue most “normal” activities in the summer of 2021,some participants tried to treat the program as fully asynchronous, which is not how it wasintended to be experienced. As a proposed remedy to this issue, we plan to condense the programinto a one-week experience that instead lasts four hours a day, and we are also developing newideas for ways to facilitate student-student interaction more successfully.IntroductionThe purpose of this paper is to describe the design and

ofTexas at Arlington. The concept of mentoring future Electrical Engineering students atUTA has solidified into the primary role among IEEE officers and its members. Thefield of Electrical Engineering is a very challenging subject for most students, and isoften perceived as too difficult. It was also observed that the retention rate was very poorfor these students in their freshman and sophomore years. With the help of IEEEOfficers and graduate as well as undergraduate students, the IEEE mentoring office wascreated. The IEEE mentoring office provides help to engineering students with theircourse work, lab work and career planning. This paper covers the concepts, details anddifficulties faced associated with the creation and operation of an IEEE

statistical analysis on our data which consists of student performance data (i.e.midterm and final grade) and quantitative data from the questionnaire. We found that the studentsin our study as a whole have a mindset, intrinsic motivation and sense of belonging that shouldbe conducive to positive learning outcomes. Final grades were correlated with students’responses to questions related to “thinking” as a preferred strategy. We also observed acorrelation between grade improvement and questions taken from the Intrinsic MotivationInventory and sense of belonging. In future work, we plan to use this for designing interventionsthat are specifically tailored to students in this class. We plan to extend our work to otherconceptual problem solving

reported that some students struggle with conflicting cultural values andconcerns with local political climate, which can induce stress when reprising prior social roleswhile adjusting to new professional responsibilities.There are various factors that influence the decisions of international students to return home.Trice and Yoo [4] reported that one third of international graduate students planned to work intheir home countries upon graduation, even though three quarters of them felt prepared to return.Ugwu and Adamuti [5] observed that academic and social experiences during graduate school inthe U.S. are not crucial to post-graduation plans of international doctoral students.

The engineering design process (EDP) is a cyclical method that students follow tocollectively build a solution to a problem (Gruber-Hine, 2018).Engineering in preschool: Engineering, as represented by the cyclical EDP, is defined bya number of qualities including brainstorming and sharing ideas, asking and answeringquestions while planning, creating, and testing a product, sharing materials,demonstrations, explanations, and most importantly, peer collaboration throughout theprocess. The benefits of student interactions during collaboration include strengtheningstudents’ peer-related social skills while also advancing knowledge construction(Wiedmann, 2015).

).Out of the 12 respondents, 8 had been involved in CEL projects in their student groups and 4indicated they had not been involved in CEL. There was overlap between targeted student groupswith participants from one student group indicating involvement in CEL, while others from thesame student group indicating no involvement in CEL. One likely explanation for this is that subteams within each group may engage or not engage in CEL. Further analysis is broken down intoresponses from students involved in CEL and not involved in CEL.Respondents who had indicated they were involved in CEL in their student groups indicated theirinvolvement in several activities in CEL including mentorship (5), event planning (4), technicaldesign projects (2), workshop

In itsmost recent revision, EAC/ABET now requires that students must demonstrate “an ability torecognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informedjudgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic,environmental, and societal contexts” [6]. This requirement aims to prepare the students for real-life ethical dilemmas. However, the multifaceted, complex nature of this outcome--requiringstudents to consider “global, economic, environmental, and societal” attention with ethicalresponsibilities--means that programs must carefully consider their
