with industry, colleges of engineering arestriving to be "one-stop-shops". As part of these partnerships, the role of research and graduateeducation is often a central focus. Indeed, in addition to tangible research results, companies areoften very interested in hiring advanced degree candidates as well as traditional undergraduateengineering students. One of the key ingredients in working out such partnerships is findingways to entice outstanding students into completion of an advanced degree.Despite the increasing prevalence of such opportunities, graduate school is not often thought ofby students as a career path, especially early in their undergraduate curriculum. Mostuniversities and colleges do discuss graduate school as an opportunity
