In this study, we gathered information about student expectations forthe process to become an engineer, by learning engineering culture (knowledge, practice,and values) through the engineering foundation course, interaction with faculty, teachingassistants, and peers, and the other activities at the university.We listed the engineering foundation course outcomes that are identified by theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and are also commonto most of the engineering programs at most universities.
