13.558.3innovation is a very purposeful and systematic practice. It is not the linear or sequential processfollowing basic research as portrayed in 1945, by Vannevar Bush 1. Rather, creative engineeringprojects in industry frequently drive the need for directed strategic research efforts atuniversities, when necessary, or when anticipated, to gain a better understanding of the naturalphenomena involved. With this in mind, the ability to build and sustain a culture of innovation isbecoming the skill that is truly needed to sustain America’s viability, yet in many organizations,it is left to chance. Engineering education would rather place their efforts on more technicaltools instead of teaching the art of collaboration.3. Creating Cultures of InnovationIn

criteria for research-oriented faculty.2. The Professional Advancement Path for EngineersIn modern, high technology industries, engineers are a necessary, and a valued resource. Theseengineers create (invent), design, develop, and innovate to produce new / improved /breakthrough technologies. Most of these engineers enter the industrial workplace with aBaccalaureate degree. They progress up the professional ladder to increased compensation, andhigher pay grades as their capability is demonstrated by a progressive gain in their abilities, andnot by seniority. The process of Lifelong Learning for these engineers in industry is verynecessary since the engineering profession is not static, but continues to advance rapidly. Thislearning is composed of

As EricWalker, former president of Pennsylvania State University and ASEE, pointed out:“Teaching Research Isn’t Teaching Engineering … The key idea is that engineering is asystem of [leadership] that results in the satisfaction of human needs … The effectivenessof an engineer is measured by how well he or she … invents and innovates.”16Whereas both U.S. Science and Engineering enterprises are vital to the national innovationsystem, they have been funded and treated in the past as if they were linear, sequentialpursuits.

Graduate engineering studentsare immediately expected to assimilate into a laboratory group, usually an interdependent team,with varying degrees of guidance by faculty members. The group dynamics and the role of trustas graduate students learn to conduct collaborative research is underexplored, but may haveramifications for the way in which graduate programs are structured or in how graduate studentsare matched with potential research advisors.Other theories and research also seek to understand mechanisms by which experts innovate inprofessional settings, and many of these have been applied to engineering education.

Therefore, one may opine thatdespite the availability of centers for teaching and learning on many college campuses or theubiquity of teaching workshops, new faculty in engineering need to spend their available time intheir research pursuits to meet the tenure requirements in that area (e.g. external funding dollars,grant submissions, archival publications, mentoring graduate students to degree completion, etc.)One approach to address this concerning issue is to provide a baseline foundation of engineeringeducation training for potential faculty members during their Ph.

Infact, according to one recent research report (discussed extensively below), only 31.5%of four year graduates enter the workforce with excellent professional skills.1 While theresearch report discusses graduates of four-year institutions and their work skills, thisauthor posits that any identified shortcomings in four-year education can be remedied notonly by changing the education in undergraduate education, but also by addressing thoseemployer needs at the graduate level. Without question, technical skills are required intechnical professions, but those technical skills alone are no longer sufficient to preparegraduates in engineering and
