Program selection was restricted to Engineering Education PhD degree programs in theUS and it excluded programs with any integration of other disciplines and focus areas in the titlee.g., Science Technology Engineering Mathematics Education PhD programs. The focus onleaders, such as program directors and/or coordinators, resonates with perspectives of doctoraleducation leadership that Prewitt espoused [10]. Prewitt argued that unlike pre-doctoralqualifications, the design and delivery of PhD programs is shaped by a broad spectrum ofinstitutional and national leaders who control entry into PhD programs, doctoral training,publication outlets, career development, and

meeting this national need. It is alsoimportant to delineate between these groups as it relates to equity and broadening participationfrom a financial perspective: Whereas 90% of STEM PhD students receive institutional funding[2], Master’s students are not as likely to receive funding. Half of STEM Master’s students relyon borrowing to fund their graduate education, and the “lack of adequate financial support” is oneof the top three reasons for dropping out of a STEM Master’s program [3]. In addition to a greatersocietal benefit to the STEM labor force and the students themselves [4], students as individualsalso benefit from earning an Engineering Master’s degree as it pertains to increasing contentknowledge, research skills, technical skills, an

I go to a predominantly white institution, so it is very difficult to find people from my culture with the same identity that I could relate to, and that can also give me guidance and a mentorship relationship.” Another said, “I would say the biggest thing for me was probably meeting another black and brown professional in the academia space. I often feel it's hard for us to get into those areas, especially the higher positions like Ph.Ds.”Participant Suggestions for Program EnhancementsDuring the focus group, participants were also asked for

However, the student survey results indicated that many studentslack such skills and there is a pressing need to teach them those skills in graduate programs.Additionally, the results highlighted that only 4 out of 72 ACCE institutions which consist of5.6% of the accredited degree programs offered courses that are related to forensic engineering.With growing concern for climate change impact and deterioration of infrastructure such asbridges and buildings, the workforce demand for forensic engineers is expected

The systematized literature review included an initial screening of 567abstracts and resulted in the synthesis of 23 papers. We identified the characteristics and commongoals of these programs. The workforce training programs were classified into three themes: (1)personal qualities and abilities, (2) interpersonal skills, and (3) professional competencies.The findings shed light into: (1) the need to prepare engineering Ph.D. students in professionalskills, given its lack of mention in workforce training programs; (2) the efforts that have gone intopreparing engineering Ph.D. students in cutting

remains one of the highest among allundergraduate students (Science and engineering indicators, 2006 ; Tinto, 1993). This leads tolow ranking in terms of the supply of STEM professionals and threatens the nation's economicdominance in the global marketplace. As a result, a considerable amount of research has beengenerated to develop intervention and preventative initiatives, including mentorship programsthat address the primary causes of student attrition from STEM fields. Less than half of students who enroll in STEM undergraduate programs as first-yearstudents graduate with a STEM degree at the national level (Hayes et al., 2009). In part as aresult of these high attrition rates, the United States has a consistently low ranking in terms

not yet addressed the specialized needs of foreign-born graduate-level multilingual students1 for whom English is an additional language. Forgraduate students in engineering, one of the biggest challenges is to write about theirscientific research in English-medium publications (e.g., conferences, journals, reports).However, students’ abilities to write scholarly and effectively in an Anglo-American contextvary greatly when they enter the graduate programs [6]. This case is further complicated by asubstantial enrollment of multilingual graduate students, who possess even more variablewriting experience in different cultural contexts [4].Besides coping with a heterogeneous writing experience in engineering, graduate programsshould also attend

The following comments were specifically related toonline coursework: Student 1: My wife is in the military so having a flexible 100% online curriculum was the most important to me. Student 2: Engineering online is a great program for engineers looking to complete a masters degree while working full time. I have really enjoyed it and can say nothing bad about the program.
