students' motivation topursue a career in microelectronics differ after this limited curriculum intervention?Literature ReviewThe Role of Interest in Career DevelopmentSocial Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT) [9] is an overarching conceptual framework that guidesall of the decisions of the Scalable Asymmetric Lifecycle Engagement (SCALE) project. SCCTemphasizes the role of relevant interests in career development. Within SCCT's Choice Modeland Interest Model, interest directly links self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and career-relatedchoices [9]. Because of this, many studies seeking to affect student's interest in engineeringcareers focus on increasing student self-efficacy and outcome expectations. In SCCT, interestsdirectly relate to choice

theoretical framework of this study is organized by major topics such as Education forSustainable Development, Sustainability Literacy, and the integration of ESD into curricula. 2.1 Education for Sustainable DevelopmentSustainability is a multidimensional concept [8]. Defining sustainability involves the adoption ofthree key dimensions that drive sustainable development (SD): environmental, social, andeconomic dimensions [8, 9]. Additionally, [10] stated SD is an endeavor to ensuring anequilibrium among economic growth, environmental integrity, and social well-being. As a result,understanding the environmental, social, and economic dimensions as well as theirinterconnections implies a certain level of complexity in the effort of incorporating

Formation of Engineers (RFE)(EEC-1824856 and EEC-1824859). The primary goal of this project is to develop and testengineering education modules that link K-12 students’ classroom learning to field tripexperiences in an interactive science museum, increasing student learning and extending the fieldtrip experiences. Each Engineering Explorations module consists of one 50-minute field tripprogram completed at an interactive science center and curriculum for three 50-minute lessons tobe implemented by the classroom teacher before (2 lessons) and after (1 lesson) the field tripprogram. Our paper will present both development and research outcomes.Development accomplishments. To date, we have developed and tested 3 field trip programswith over 5,000 K-12

(STEM) education is an effective catalyst toengage students in science & engineering careers. STEM continues to support the long-term goalof preparing students for life-long careers that promise a competitive edge in the job market.However, STEM program development is often challenging. Wu-Rorrer [1] argues that “STEMremains vaguely defined, and the strategies to successfully integrate it into the currenteducational system remain elusive”, inferring that a school’s STEM program is amorphous.Furthermore, STEM programs need more work than before with recent pressure to promoteinclusivity [2] and a solid career path [3] in a stable environment [4]. To better solve thisdilemma, there remains an aspect of STEM programs that is overlooked – the

integrating engineering design into the K-12science curriculum. This is accomplished by raising engineering design to the same level asscientific inquiry. As a result, engineering design experience is gradually becoming a vitalcomponent of K-12 education, especially at the high school level. The process of initiatingand completing an engineering design project requires students to engage both in analyticalreasoning, active creation, and testing of solutions. One must ensure that engineering designprojects are engaging for all students, particularly those from demographics that areunderserved, underperforming, or underrepresented in the STEM fields. Well-craftedengineering design projects can increase students’ interest in STEM and their self-efficacy

Our program has a strong senior designcourse sequence where seniors work for an entire academic year in teams on real projectssponsored and mentored by industry. Real industry design experience, however, was missing inthe first three years of the program. Hence, a separate design course sequence, where freshmen,sophomores, and juniors come together each spring to work on authentic design projectsmentored by practicing engineers, was added to the curriculum.

engineering students feel underprepared when going into the workforce, due to a lack ofreal-world application of the college curriculum and the lack of necessary skills to confidentlymake engineering and business decisions [1-3]. Consequently, the transition between college andone’s first job can be difficult for many graduates [4]. This causes many to seek jobs outside ofthe engineering profession altogether; according to one study, only one-third of engineeringgraduates seek jobs in an engineering field [5]. Furthermore, a study by the Carnegie Foundationfound that engineering schools primarily focus on the acquisition of technical knowledge, leavinglittle attention to real-world application or preparing for employment [6].To combat this issue, the
