While as many as one third of graduating civil engineersgo to work in the land development industry (University placement statistics, 2001-2005), fewcivil engineering programs in the country have any course or emphasis in land developmentwithin their curriculum. This paper describes an ongoing initiative that brings togetherundergraduate CEE students and faculty with industry professionals in an effort to improve landdevelopment design education.Prior to this initiative, the CEE Department had one course titled “Land Development Design”,taught once per year and it was available for more than 10 years. Historically, this course wasalways taught by an adjunct instructor, usually

Understanding theseemotional experiences is crucial, as navigating frustration and confusion is often integral tolearning in STEM, especially in engineering contexts where iterative failure and persistence arepart of the process [10]. While it does not aim to establish causal relationships, the findings offerpreliminary insights to inform future research and practice in STEM education, particularlyregarding emotional regulation and persistence in early learners.Literature ReviewThe Role of

Only 4% were non-Caucasian andonly 11% were female. The number of racial minorities entering engineering programsin universities around 1985 was between 6% and 8%, however the dropout rate wasextremely large at between 55% and 70% 7. This calculates into an average of 3% to 4%of graduating engineers. Given that the transition into management takes on average 10years, a 4% racial minority value for managers surveyed is not surprising.
