capacity concerns, and these types of meritocracy-based programs are usedas a means of managing program growth and enrollment.Given the importance of matriculation to engineering degree completion, we examine if timingof matriculation into a degree granting program is related to engineering degree completion. Inthis working paper, we use data from a single institution that has a meritocracy-basedmatriculation program. Using hierarchical linear modeling, we consider a student’s probabilityof graduating within six-years to be a function of matriculating into a degree grantingengineering program in one of four possible entry points, while controlling for academicachievement in key math and science classes.Matriculation ProcessStudents at the study

Data was collected through a survey given to 73 engineering students. Thequestions in this survey targeted student’s conceptualization and relationship with design, as wellas their demographics and course history. Open-ended questions focused on student responsesabout how they defined engineering design and what aspects of design they considered to bechallenging or straightforward. Closed-ended questions focused on how often they have hadopportunities to practice aspects of design, including working directly with a client and consideringsustainability in their solutions.

However, maintaining URPs is oftendifficult. Therefore, it is critical to find ways to reduce the workload of faculty mentors anddevelop self-regulation in undergraduate research students. To address this need, weimplemented Scrum methodology as a framework to manage three teams of undergraduatestudents pursuing undergraduate research projects during a semester and promote

In addition, the factor structure of ESE from the existing instruments has not beenconsistent (McGee et al., 2009). Specifically, McGee et al. (2009) extensively reviewed 25empirical studies that used an ESE measure. However, few ESE instruments were designed orused for engineering student populations within an engineering entrepreneurship program. Inaddition, although ESE has been examined in engineering education research recently, avalidation study of a self-report ESE instrument for engineering students is still lacking based onour literature

The concept of DT was first used by Simon [9], the founder of artificialintelligence. Archer [10] believed that “design” has to be acknowledged as a foundationalpart of education, and in Rowe’s work [11], DT has explicated the ways of knowingdesigners. Goldschmidt [12] mentioned that designers see DT as a learning process, and thebusiness community views it as a process based on knowledge. While for managers, DTrefers to developing and

The summerresearch program is an opportunity for students who wish to conduct research, who have notsecured an internship in the industry, and most of our rising seniors will choose the internshipunless they are really interested in research.The core objective of the URSR is to immerse undergraduates in a research-intensiveenvironment, where they can apply academic theories to real-life problems and develop a deeperunderstanding of their field [9,10].

innovation, and the tension between design engineering and business management cognitive styles. To encourage these thinking patterns in young engineers, Mark has developed a Scenario Based Learning curriculum that attempts to blend core engineering concepts with selected business ideas. Mark is also researches empathy and mindfulness and its impact on gender participation in engineering education. He is a Lecturer in the School of Engineering at Stanford University and teaches the course ME310x Product Management and ME305 Statistics for Design Researchers. Mark has extensive background in consumer products management, having managed more than 50 consumer driven businesses over a 25-year career with The Procter &
workplace.Along these lines, researchers have clarified the learning challenges posed when studentsgraduate and transition to the workplace. While traditional engineering jobs do center aroundengineering problems, many significant learning events are prompted by the change in contextand a graduate’s need to understand how to calibrate their complementary skills (e.g.communication, project management) to the particular workplace context [22]. Developinggraduates who are primed to apply their lifelong learning abilities to these interconnected social,cultural, and technical challenges appears essential for successful transitions and forundergraduate problems to assert their long-term value.Thus, how can engineering programs foster these lifelong learning
programs with quantitative surveys (e.g., [4], [5] ),even though each site tends to serve only a few students. (For example, ours will serve about 30students across three years.) Surveys that were designed for large-scale participant pools cannotcapture nuances of students’ experiences, especially with REU programs’ comparatively lowparticipant numbers. As a result, the effects of research experience on these students’ learningand identity are difficult for engineering education researchers to access. This is particularlyproblematic because many REU sites, including ours, are designed to serve marginalizedpopulations in engineering and science. In our view, not studying these students’ experiencesbecause their sample size is small is inequitable
