The'Equipping' stage targets uplifting students' hands-on ability by providing the necessarytechnical competencies for prototyping innovative solutions to industrial problems. The'Showcasing' stage emphasizes professional practices of students by engaging them inintensive partnerships and collaborative work with industrial partners. Additionally, itinvolves building a platform for students to disseminate their findings and innovations toindustrial collaborators and other stakeholders through knowledge exchange activities.

IntroductionIn 2011, at the ASEE annual conference, the Educational Research and Methods Division (ERM)Division ran a conference session titled “They're Not "Soft" Skills!” [1] with the tagline,“There’s nothing "soft" about these difficult skills.” This session was hardly the first time thiscase had been made. Since that session in 2011, over ten years ago now, a casual search on theterm “soft skills” on the ASEE PEER

Often, trailblazing students have confidence gaps or imposter syndrome, which may preventthem from applying 14,15,16 . Thus, we actively engage with student groups including professionalsocieties (e.g., SWE, NSBE, SHPE), multicultural associations, and organizations that supportfirst-generation and low-income students for applicant recruitment. We also reach out to depart-ments with technical areas of interest to candidate projects.In contrast to many internship programs, CIRCUIT students are admitted to the program priorto being matched with a project. This is particularly significant because many of our studentscome in with fewer technical skills

Holding a certification means both that an individual can pass an assessment (usually atest) and that they cared enough to attempt it. Professional assessment is so commonly used thatthe Association of Test Publishers (ATP) and Institute for Credentialing Excellence (ICE) holdmultiple, international conferences and meetings annually to bring together certification programmanagers from the fields of accounting, dentistry, personal training, and water treatment

As faculty, we are the second most likely source of career advice for students 1 .By discussing career skills in the classroom, we can create more equal opportunities for studentsthat may not have existing professional networks from their family and friends.

Group 1 followed the traditionalformat of generating projects based on the assets available. This was resolved by going into adivergent process where the participants listed all the possible projects that are possible about theappreciative framing question.

Advisory board members sponsor senior designprojects, provide technical assistance to students on projects, and provide input to engineeringprograms on the larger, strategic directions the programs should be taking. Some advisory boardmembers also help with assessment and continuous improvement in the programs. When thepandemic hit, much of this stopped, as interaction was limited to impersonable virtual meetings.For many campuses, the timing could not have been worse, as it occurred midway into the springsemester, right as many advisory boards were preparing to meet and students

The study presented amovement from a deficit perspective to a capacity-building perspective of AI/AN persistence inSTEM. 1) The transculturation premise allows students to use their ethnic identity as an emotional anchor. The question is how to engage in the STEM/institutional culture without having to assimilate. 2) There is a transculturation threshold that is an important marker. It is a point at which students make conscious decisions as to the balance between ethnic pride and professional selves. 3) Students can

Attitudinal (cohesion, trust, commitment), behavioral (coordination,communication, shared leadership), and cognitive (situational awareness, shared mental models)competencies support MTS effectiveness [2], [3]. Multisector MTS are even more complex, asteam members bring aspects of their organizational culture as well as their personal andprofessional lived experiences into the MTS, and if priorities and practices are not well aligned,team function and effectiveness can suffer.

We make sense of the participants’ career decisionsby considering their career journeys through the lens of the unfolding model of turnover, a theoryfrequently used by organizational psychologists yet not fully applied to the study of women’sengineering career decisions. In this paper, we describe the engineering career journey of Louise,one of three participants from our larger study [1].

Sageevand Romanowski (2001) surveyed engineering graduates and found a direct correlation betweenthe amount of technical communication instruction they received as students and their futurecareer advancement [23].

This paper describes a three-phasemethodology for collecting the insights through 1) a literature survey of industry sponsoredengineering courses, 2) interviews and surveys conducted with experienced industry liaisons, and3), student evaluations from two capstone courses from two institutions. Students have diverseexpectations for their liaisons including their consistent availability, honesty, and
