To the best of our knowledge, this is the first cross-cultural study to examineengineering students’ social support during the pandemic. We administered the UndergraduateSupport Survey to engineering undergraduates at both institutions. The survey collected dataabout students’ sense of belonging and social capital, including names of individuals whoprovided support for their engineering education and the specific expressive and instrumentalresources they utilized during the pandemic.Results revealed similarities and differences between students at the two

Rather than ignore the term, we soughtto provide our students with the tools to critically approach it, with the hope that this wouldposition them to become more effective advocates for more meaningful community engagementin their places of work and volunteering.Literature ReviewMany of the concepts and practices that inform engineering education first emerged inmanagement.

However, researchers have reported that the completion rate for U.S. engineeringgraduate degrees has held steady at just 50% for the past several decades despite consistentefforts to increase enrollment and retention of engineering graduate students (Bowen &Rudenstine, 1992; Nerad & Cerny, 1993).

Educational FrameworkAbstractRobotics, an interdisciplinary field spanning various science, technology,engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines, is recognized as atransformative force shaping our daily lives. With its broad popularity amongchildren and teenagers, robotics serves as a fertile ground for cultivating futureprofessionals in science and engineering. Introducing structured roboticseducation to young learners at an early age can attract highly promising studentsto STEM fields. However, formal robotics education typically begins in college,by which time many students have already chosen their majors. To bridge thisgap, robotic competitions have emerged as crucial incubators for nurturing futurescientists and engineers.This study

With virtual sampling, the student canchoose to sample at any time or place, and sampling is not limited by local environmentalconditions. The efficacy of virtual experimentation has been demonstrated by greater studentengagement and conceptual understanding, when compared to its physical counterpart2,4,8.Furthermore, the use of computer-based tools in engineering education is highly accepted bypresent-day students because they have grown up in the digital age3.

Our question is: “What underlying principles emerge as we train undergraduate mentors?”To evaluate the skills growth process we employed several instruments during a four-week pilotstudy. “Snapshot” instruments used during each mentoring session gathered data from thementors, mentees, and observers. Following the study, the mentors and mentees wrotecomments concerning growth in the mentor’s skills. Three underlying principles appeared toemerge from the data: 1.

However, this full “cradle-to-grave”view of an engineering solution’s life span facilitates comprehensive evaluation along otherequally important dimensions, such as cost, resource requirements, manufacturability,serviceability and even social impact. Additionally, considering a solution’s complete life cyclecan illuminate its relationships with other processes and systems, making life cycle a crucial toolfor considering the contest of an engineering effort. For instance, the choice of a product’spackaging material might be informed by the target market’s disposal regulations, recyclinginfrastructure, and people’s

One of the projectbased learning exercises was the water treatment laboratory experiment. Coagulation,flocculation, sedimentation and filtration concepts and design principles were taught throughpractical demonstrations for junior and senior civil engineering students in the environmentalengineering laboratory. The source water was collected from the algae contaminated ponds onthe campus. The student learning was greatly enhanced by the practical and hands-on, projectbased
