Supporting this significant event and recognizing the urgentneed of increasing diversity, deans of engineering schools across the United States signedpledges to act on four major diversity initiatives. One of these initiatives addresses thecommitment of developing and implementing proactive strategies for increasing therepresentation of women and underrepresented minorities within the engineering professoriate[1].

Similarly,Somerton and Genik [10] have stated that faculty advisors provide continuity, and support strongstudent membership and officers. Banks and Combs [11] argued that the faculty advisor plays apivotal role in developing a successful business-oriented student organization. Faculty advisor isone of the few reasonably consistent links from year to year. However, there is an almostcomplete dearth of research on the details of what students actually want from their facultyadvisors in any of these organizations. Consequently, there is no data on how well aligneduniversities, professional

As summarized by Lattuca and Stark (2009), faculty members are key actorsin the development and offering of college students’ educational experiences, and understandingforces influencing such actors is essential for understanding the nature of students’ experiences.Forces might include external sources (e.g., accreditation demands and state assessmentrequirements), internal institutional influences (e.g., promotion and tenure policies or acceptedinstitutional practices), or influences tied more directly to the individual faculty member (e.g.,disciplinary background, demographics, or their own beliefs).Many higher education researchers have compared the relative influence of these forces onfaculty members’ decision

This exploration allows us to meet facultywhere they are and develop an effective intervention to help faculty build competency inintegrating evidence-based creative thinking practices and exercises into their engineeringteaching. The intervention should, in turn, help engineering students engage more withcreative concepts/practices/activities in engineering classes.

Postdoc training provides PhDs opportunities to further develop their skills in academicresearch and professional networking, as well as to continue to build their publication record.Therefore, postdoc training can provide important preparation for a tenure track faculty positionor a career in academic research [1], [6]–[8]. The effect of postdoc training on subsequent careeroutcomes, such as likelihood of an academic research career and research productivity, can varyacross disciplines within STEM fields [8]–[11].
