, longitudinalstudy of over 300 engineering students at 4 universities nation-wide, students rated theirprofessional/ethical responsibility as engineers, their concern for understanding the consequencesof technology, their degree of social consciousness, and their concern for understanding howpeople use machines. Ratings were collected twice during their college career and once 18months following graduation. The results of Cech’s study revealed that engineers, both asstudents and then when working in industry, showed a linear decline for concerns about publicwelfare across the time points. This report highlighted that engineering students over timeshowed diminished prosocial trait endorsement. Cech’s findings further motivate the study ofprosocial affordance

UAVs are cheaper than manned aircraft and pose no risk tohuman operators. The UAV industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of aerospace industries.However, there is a lack of professionals entering the workforce for UAV related jobs. There isalso a

The research theme for this program is energy: specifically,catalysis, energy storage, and biofuels due to the pronounced expertise in these areas at LSU. Amajor strength of this REU program is the partnership with the LSU Business & TechnologyCenter which provides the REU students with training in technology transfer fundamentals andhow to pitch scientific ideas to non-scientists. In addition to the entrepreneurship training, theprogram offers weekly seminars in ethics, effective presenting, applying to graduate school,industrial safety, and topical seminars related to three main research areas of the programs.

Currently 23% of seniors scheduled to graduate from the engineeringprogram at ECU in either May or December 2018 began their college experience at a communitycollege. It has been observed that transfer students tend to be more mature than many of thestudents who started as freshmen and have a very strong work ethic. This makes transferstudents, who have proven they are capable of completing college course for two years, lessrisky investments for scholarship funds.

Consequently, at the time ofsubmission, there was more disagreement than consensus regarding DACA recipients andimmigration policies in general.This political climate is important because SCC is located in a state with a large population ofDACA recipients and a large population of immigrants. When creating the recruitment survey,our research group initially wanted to ask questions about US citizenship, but given the largeimmigrant population at our study site, ethics, and overall empathy, we decided not to includethis question on the survey.

Student’s diversity compass affects team interactions and,ultimately, the climate of engineering for underrepresented groups.ConclusionsThe two main research questions we asked initially in this project were 1) What are individualstudent’s perceptions of diversity? and 2) What are student’s perceptions of working on diverseteams?

After discussion within the project team and with the program officer, the team put together a mechanism of renewing scholarship from year to year and a selection rubric. As a built-in accountability measure, all scholars need to apply for the scholarship and go through the same selection process each year.
