Despite this growing attention and acknowledgment of the need toimprove graduate education in engineering, cultures and practices in these spaces are seldomcharacterized as welcoming. In response to the above calls, this study explores the engineering graduate student’sexperience, focusing on their perceived stressors or challenges, while considering the student’sdegree and citizenship status. This study is situated in a three-year effort to develop andimplement a mandatory graduate seminar course focused on promoting equity in STEM at anR1, research-intensive university in the Mid-Atlantic U.S. The following sections will

The listings were analyzed to find representation of Student LearningOutcomes (SLOs) as well. It was observed that job responsibilities represented more SLOs thanthe qualification sections. The findings from this study could be used by institutions to bringtheir construction management programs up to current industry expectations. Recent andupcoming graduates can use these findings to understand the skills they need to possess to workin their desired positions in construction.IntroductionConstruction graduates usually occupy a plethora of professional positions within

Also, ten qualities of an effective leader arediscussed and students complete a self-evaluation of their own leadership qualities based on“The Art of Leadership” [20]. Individually, students rate each of the ten leadership qualities(vision, ability, enthusiasm, stability, concern for others, self-confidence, persistence, vitality,charisma, and integrity) on a scale of one to ten (low to high) based on their success in thatparticular area.
