Paper ID #37404Work in Progress: Exploring the Relationship between Female EngineeringFaculty and Degree Attainment of Women in EngineeringClaudia Vanessa Garcia, Society of Women Engineers Claudia Vanessa (CV) Garcia is a doctoral candidate and research assistant in the Higher Education Ad- ministration program at Kent State University. She also serves as a research intern for the Society of Women Engineers. CV holds a B.S. in Biology and an M.A. in Education from the University of Texas at El Paso. She has over ten years of experience working in higher education assisting marginalized students as they transition into
programs in engineering. PennsylvaniaState University requires that all freshmen complete a one-unit seminar as part of their GErequirements. In four semesters, they offered 51 unique engineering seminars.1 The researchersfound that the students in these seminars reported “moderate or greater progress in several keyareas: teamwork (37%), using computers (41%), and making life decisions (37%)”. Overall,63% of the 1024 students who took these seminars were satisfied. A different approach wastaken by the Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science at Portland State University.Portland State has a four year General Education program that includes “freshman andsophomore inquiry sequences, junior level cluster courses that help students focus on
components of engineering education, research anddevelopment, and outreach/service. The EDC program serves as a blueprint for the education ofengineers of the 21st century who are called to play a critical role in contributing to peace andsecurity in an increasingly challenged world.IntroductionWith a current population of more than 6 billion, the world is becoming a place in which humanpopulations are more crowded, more consuming, more polluting, more connected, and in many waysless diverse than at any time in history. There is growing recognition that humans are altering theEarth’s natural systems at all scales from local to global at an unprecedented rate in the humanhistory. The question now arises whether it is possible to satisfy the needs of
at the Faculty Electronics and Information Technology over the periodof the last 12 years. The following remarks must be taken into account when analyzing thepresented data:− The regular full-time students who received their degrees in 1988, 1992, 1996 and 2000 are considered.− The data refer to the 5-year program leading up to the M.S. degree – the traditional model of engineering education in Poland and the predominant model of studies at the Faculty for students who graduated in 1998 or before. Only for 2000, the students who completed the 4- year program leading up to the B.S. degree are also considered. It must be noted that since the introduction of the two-stage system of studies (B.S. – M.S.) in 1994, only good students
support systems can assist in filling gaps in social capital facilitating studentsuccessful development [12]. Further, a lack of research on intersectional identities (race/ethnicityand sex), particularly at the graduate student level, restricts the information and conclusions to bedrawn from existing data [24]. III. METHODSA. Procedures Engineering graduate students from across the U.S. participated in a survey sent to graduateprogram directors or department chairs via email. We targeted a subset of graduate programs froma list of 1,374 doctoral degree granting engineering programs across 244 institutions that wascompiled from three years of data from the National Science Foundation’s Survey of

. Many IT programs do not havesufficient space and computational resources to dedicate laboratory rooms to individual topics,much less to dedicate computers to individual students within those labs.These concerns are universal among educators, and have been addressed with varying degrees ofsuccess through various means. Some institutions or programs have required students to ineffect, provide their own development systems in the form of a laptop computer. As stated byCampbell1, “Budget conscious universities are realizing that requiring students to purchaselaptops can reduce the need for expensive multimedia classrooms.” The pervasiveness of thispractice can be found quickly by means of an internet search engine. While this approach isavailable

CPU SchedulingAn operating system must select processes (programs in execution) for execution in some order. The selectionprocess is carried out by an appropriate scheduling algorithm. CPU scheduling deals with the problem of decidingwhich of the processes in the ready queue is to be allocated the CPU. There are many different CPU schedulingalgorithms, for example, first come first served, shortest job first, priority, round-robin schemes. Figure 2. A Multi-Level Feedback Queue System Jobs Queue 1
