The objective of the paper is to evaluate impact of theREU program on multiple student outcomes with respect to their research competencies such asunderstanding a research process, data gathering, analyzing, and presentation of results. Theanalysis is also broken down by gender, ethnicity, student type (junior, senior, etc.), and type oftheir primary institutions (major research school vs. teaching school). The cybermanufacturingREU programs recruits students both from in-state and out of state of Texas. In addition to mostcommonly held10-week long research program under the guidance of a faculty mentor, thecybermanufacturing REU also engages students in high impact learning and

majors, including Electrical and Computer Engineering students. Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.

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
