Did ethical dilemmas contribute to changing jobsor careers? Did these issues vary between types of engineering jobs, engineering disciplines, orgender? Survey responses were received from 504 individuals and represented 719 differentjobs. For 31% of the jobs, individuals indicated that they never felt that they had been confrontedwith an ethical or moral dilemma

, faculty continue to engage in interdisciplinarygraduate education, but limited research has explored what accounts for this engagement. Tothat end, this paper explores the perspectives of faculty recently facilitating an interdisciplinarygraduate certificate program at a large, public land-grant university to understand facultydecision-making related to interdisciplinary education.To explore this issue, we use Lattuca and Pollard’s model of faculty decision-making [4] toanalyze semi-structured interviews with five faculty members of a current NSF-fundedinterdisciplinary graduate program. The framework describes the three influences of facultydecision-making: individual, such as values and beliefs; internal, such as departmental cultureand
transfer.A fourth applied and interviewed for an international internship in France but was not offered aposition. Several of the participants went on to get involved in student-led initiatives to recruitother engineering students to study abroad. As a result of this experience, one student went on totake a part-time paid position in the university’s Education Abroad Office, while five othersbecame active members in the college’s Student Engineers Abroad Council, a studentorganization whose mission is to encourage other students to study abroad. Students explainedthat while they may not have had an opportunity to travel abroad a second time, the experiencedid help them gain confidence related to foreign travel.
