seven campuses regardless of institutional type or size. The four most commonly citedreasons for leaving SME majors were: loss of interest in science, belief that a non-SMEmajor holds more interest, poor teaching by SME faculty, and feeling overwhelmed bythe pace and load of curriculum demands. These findings point to the importance offaculty in both teaching and support roles as major contributors to encouraging studentretention.While previous studies have identified elements of the educational experience that arerelated to student persistence in SME degree programs most have been either quantitativeor qualitative in nature. Our study is different in that it utilizes a mixed method approachto explore both extrinsic and intrinsic factors that

committee. Our process began with a pre-retreat of the departmental graduatecommittee in an off-campus location (September 1999). The following issues surfaced at thatretreat:* The University as a whole is placing increased emphasis on graduate programs.* Graduate engineering courses are extremely limited, with adverse impacts on recruiting andstudent experience.* Given the sources of students, engineering needs around the state, and the range of facultyexpertise in the department, there may be new and creative graduate options.* There is a major need to create a more comprehensive engineering program in UGA whichwould provide the foundational support for meeting the contemporary needs of agriculturalengineering programs and meeting the

Throughsituating engineering disciplines as different contexts for technology, the need for engineeringstudents to develop an ontological position towards engineering as technological activity, emergesas important.In this view, we hold that a fluid epistemological boundary for engineering disciplinesnecessitates perspectives on how to enact engineering, as doing engineering in authentic contextsis advocated to support the well-established practices around learning about discipline

evolving globaleconomic factors have placed a premium on innovation and innovativeness. Thecompanies that have traditionally invested in professional development through the Ira A.Fulton School of Engineering’s center for Global Outreach and Executive Education(GOEE) at Arizona State University are no exception to this emerging trend.Increasingly they are requesting training and coursework on enterprise innovation as partof their professional development investment. To accommodate this demand GOEE hasdeveloped a new engineering master’s degree program in Enterprise Systems Innovation& Management (ESIM). The new program address some of the concerns enterpriseleaders have expressed about how to nurture and develop the innovation potential in
, science, and technology to include new forms of communication and problem solving for emerging grand challenges.
