Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Connecting Middle School Students’ Personal Interests, Self-efficacy, andPerceptions of Engineering to Develop a Desire to Pursue Engineering Career Pathways (Work in Progress)AbstractWith the increased exposure to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)through activities in-school and out-of-school K-12 learning environments and representation inmedia outlets, students who attend our summer engineering intervention tend to articulate a moreholistic understanding of the role of engineers within society. However, despite this increasedexposure and a diverse understanding, students from diverse backgrounds (e.g.,racially/ethnically diverse and women) still pursue

Although many full-time faculty, whether mid-career, tenure-track, ornontenure-track, do not think of themselves as entrepreneurial, it is imperative that one isentrepreneurially minded (EM) to succeed in academia. The tasks that a faculty membercompletes each day: teaching, obtaining research dollars, managing and recruiting students
