can be applied to different careers inthe engineering field. A majority of these students also indicated plans for pursuing a graduatedegree in engineering. Course evaluation responses reflected similar findings: The way nanotechnology concepts were presented to me in this course got me very interested in nanotechnology. I learned so much about different applications and uses of nanotechnology and this has motivated me to begin thinking about how I could apply nanotechnology principles to my career. I would love to begin working as an intern or research assistant to aid in understanding nanotechnology better. I recommend this set of courses to many people I know who enjoy engineering…Overall, using different methods of

this study come from an NSF-funded, nationallyrepresentative, multi-institution, cross-sectional study of engineering education in the U.S. Usingresponses from more than 5,000 engineering students in 31 four-year institutions during the 2009spring and summer terms, we followed a standard psychometric scale development process toconstruct a measure of contextual competence. We report a set of evaluations (based on statisticalprocedures and professional judgment) of the content, construct, discriminant, and concurrentvalidity of the scale. Findings indicate that the four-item scale is conceptually clean,psychometrically sound, and internally consistent (Cronbach’s alpha = .91). In short, the scaleappears to be an appropriate, acceptably reliable
