The competitions build on a significant body ofwork related to experiential education and problem-based learning. Each of these topics is nowdiscussed.2.1. Experiential EducationExperiential education has a long history tracing back to apprenticeships [5]. It has been shownto be beneficial across a wide range of academic levels [6]–[11] and across numerous disciplines[12]–[16]. In addition to its technical benefits, it has also been shown to teach students soft skills[17], improve both creativity [18] and self-image [19] and even increase students’ likelihood

typically students with parentsor guardians that have not graduated from college are not as successful in STEM as their non-first generation counterparts [44]. In general, parents' levels of education have been associatedwith rates of students' retention and persistence in college, even when controlling for measures ofacademic preparedness such as rigor of secondary curriculum and college entrance examination[45]. For example, one study found that first generation students earned fewer credits in theirfirst year than non-first generation students [46]. Another study demonstrated that firstgeneration status was a significant predictor of degree completion when considering otherstudent characteristics [47]. Finally, some research has even suggested

Today’s engineersare expected to be technologically competent. In addition, they must be able to lead, manage,innovate, and identify and solve problems. In response to these increasing demands on engineers,the College of Engineering at Villanova University developed a comprehensive professionaldevelopment program called Career Compass. Career Compass is a three-year mandatorybearing-credit program. There is an optional fourth-year component. This program has fourthemes: The Engineering Profession, Setting the Stage for Personal and Professional Success,Post-Graduation Career Planning, and

REU programs aredesigned to give undergraduate students a taste of the research environment to allow them todetermine if they might wish to pursue graduate education and an eventual career in scientificresearch. In computing, some are able to pursue research careers directly after undergraduategraduation, so REU participation can also draw students towards these career opportunities aswell.

unsurmountable. At the moment of writing this article, the SC-CoPmodel is already being implemented in a second lab, also with strong industrial collaborations inplace. To make sure the project runs smoothly, we have established some requirements on thelab such as the selection of a motivated ambassador. It remains to be seen whether this secondlab has a culture similar to the first one. In any case, the gains that can be achieved byimplementing a successful SC-CoP in a lab with a weak research and collaboration culture,unlike the case presented here, are far greater.6 References[1] C.

The lecture consisted of guest speakers providing information aboutengineering departments, specific opportunities and the field more broadly. Despite beingpresented with information about the available learning experiences, enrolled students indicateda lack of confidence in making educational decisions [14]. In addition to the lecture, upper-levelstudents mentors led weekly discussions (15-25 students per discussion) on topics such asstrengths, identity and values, which are necessary to support the development of future plans[15] and thereby an integral component of experiential learning.In early 2020, we piloted a new model for the course

Education of the next generation of graduates has the potential to greatlyimpact society if their technical expertise are combined with personal and professional attributes tomake them more socially-engaged and effective as leaders. Leveraging a project-organised curriculumas opposed to a more traditional approach has proven to be successful in cultivating these personaland professional attributes alongside technical development. But transforming a curriculum is a slowand arduous process. The curricula in the School of Engineering at the University of Pretoria arebased on the CDIO framework, but limited resources and large student cohorts make it difficult tofully leverage the benefits of project-based learning within the formal curriculum
