These include therise of the field of engineering education, changes in the undergraduate experience such asincreased emphasis on research and entrepreneurship, and, in addition, changes in the academicengineering job market and in the importance of post-doctoral positions for those students whoare focused on a research career in academia. At the present time, UC is also revising all itscurricula in preparation for a move from quarters to semesters in Fall 2012. And also, like manylarge state universities, UC is dealing with many budget challenges. Here we describe changesin our PFF program to adapt to the many

It is assumed here thatthe adjuncts have the appropriate educational backgrounds and credentials to satisfyABET requirements, as determined by the department chair.There are many ways that industry practitioners can partner with universities to teachengineering courses. They can teach existing courses as adjuncts or visitingprofessors. 2,3 McMasters and Komerath (2005) describe a program developed by Boeingcalled “Boeing Fellow on Campus Program.” 4 In that program, Boeing employees actedas adjunct or visiting faculty at universities where Boeing recruited engineering graduates.They taught courses in technical areas of interest to Boeing so they could observestudents firsthand in those classes.

These are related to the successfulness of the bootcamp, improvement in student communication skills including interviewing, improvement inself-confidence, and improved research skills. The survey includes eleven questions that stu-dents answered on a six-point Likert scale with 1 indicating the internship had no impact on theskill, and 6 indicating that the internship helped them to improve that skill greatly. The greatestimpact areas indicated from this assessment in the 2010 class were in the students’ ability to askquestions, their verbal communication skills, and their ability to present data verbally. Each ofthese questions received an average student rating over five

The concerns about discrepancy between the industry expectations and graduate practice readiness has been alluded to for general engineering [6], studied within software engineering [11], civil engineering [10], and chemical engineering graduates [12]. Literature has shown that there are a number of approaches higher education institutions have taken to improve their graduates’ practice readiness, some of which have enhanced students’ employability through developing generic skills or holistic competencies [4]. Additionally, some institutions have implemented capstone design classes, in an effort to meet ABET criteria on student outcomes and address concerns regarding graduates ill-prepared for industrial
