The implementation of the ISO 9001 quality system is to complement theexisting quality assurance activities such as the accreditation by the Board of Engineers,Malaysia and the external examination and assessment processes.Prior to the ISO 9001 certification exercise by the School of Engineering, there was anambitious move by UPM to certify all activities covering the scope of teaching, research,consultancy and administration at the university level. Learning from the failure, which wasmainly due to the lack of management commitment at nearly all levels that did not translateor permeate down the importance of the exercise, has led UPM to take a more cautiousapproach

That is, when women enter college intending to study engineering, theyusually do eventually graduate with an engineering degree and don’t transfer to a non-engineering field. However, very few female high school seniors do in fact choose engineeringas a field of study in college.Our study is different in that rather than focusing on persisters and non-persisters, we focus onpersisters who

Combined,these factors contributed to Kaylla and Robert’s differing educational outcomes related to mathand science self-efficacy. Robert developed strong math and science self-efficacy. Bycomparison, Kaylla was constantly placed in positions where she had to teach herself the mathand science concepts that were not taught to her during her homeschooling and was disparagedby her instructors when she did not learn these concepts quickly.

professional codes may not be sufficient toprevent harm if the engineers are not trained in identifying and analyzing complex ethicaldilemmas [24]. The codes themselves cannot resolve dilemmas except to recommend thatengineering professionals act according to the codes [10]. The codes also primarily address onlyinteractions amongst professional engineers, ignoring a whole set of other different actorsimpacted by engineering work [25]. Therefore, students may have trouble understanding andresolving complicated ethical dilemmas if they are taught only to follow the codes. Students needto be able to move beyond just learning the formulaic ethical codes to a more holistic approachthat integrates public needs and experience with ethics; yet, many students

Moreover, it is achance to reflect upon several questions confronting engineering education. Do administrativedecisions, and these in particular, transmit messages about the state of engineering education as awhole? Was this one isolated incident borne of necessity and exigent circumstances, or was it aharbinger of things to come when universities enact policies and dictate priorities in reaction tothe structural circumstances at play? Could universities inadvertently overvalue financial pursuitsto the detriment of their larger mission and student learning? More

This study shows strong similaritiesin these different projects and suggests the possibility of using a quantitative approach toteaching programming. We compare the results with the programs written by the studentsin a senior-level software engineering course. We discover that their programs have similarproperties as open-source programs. Hence, we hypothesize that students may benefit byusing these quantitative measures from open-source programs as samples and learn betterprogramming skills and styles.IntroductionOpen-source software

).Literature ReviewWhile the rate of women obtaining doctoral degrees in STEM fields continues to increase, a lackof women in the STEM professoriate remains (Ahmad, 2017; Casad et al., 2020; Hill et al.,2014; Miller & Riley, 2021). Women make up 34.5% of STEM faculty in U.S. colleges anduniversities and only 28.2% of tenured STEM faculty (NSF National Center for Science andEngineering Statistics, 2019). Furthermore, although women account for 29% of the U.S. STEMworkforce, disciplines have stark discrepancies (NSF, 2020). In life sciences and psychology,women represent half of the workforce but only 29% of physicists, 27% of computer scientistsand mathematicians, and 16% of engineers.
