, and reflect on the impacts their choices had on rocket performance using distincttools from the discipline of each course.Among the novel aspects of our approach is to expand beyond a two-course project sequencespanning just one academic year, a technique already used in many engineering curricula.Instead, our project is integrated into a multi-year five-required-course sequence with at least onecourse appearing in each year of the four-year mechanical engineering curriculum. We expectthis approach to engender significant benefits to student learning. First, it promotes “spacedrepetition”, wherein learners encounter the same material in briefer sessions spread over longertime periods rather than the study of information in single blocks, as

The education of an engineer must no longer beconsidered a one time event constrained to four years or that all of the knowledge and skillsrequired of engineers for advanced practice can be developed in four years without experience.Universities must engage in another important role, that is within their mission of professionaleducation, by creating a new type of advanced professional education that nurtures the growth oftheir graduates beyond entry-level. Professional engineering education must become a process oflifelong learning and development that enables growth of engineer’s as innovators and leadersthroughout their professional careers.

The presented work addresses this gap by examining why women STEMfaculty choose to engage or not engage in EEPs.Conceptual FramingThis work aims to understand why women STEM faculty may or may not choose to participatein EEPs amidst their broader work as academics. This requires both attention to why adultsmight choose to participate in non-compulsory educational programs (like EEPs) broadly, andalso particular attention to EEPs as a specific type of educational program. Thus, to frame ourwork, we drew on both adult learning and entrepreneurship education literature to examine ourresearch question.
