“high impact” educational practice [11]. Internships have alsobeen found to be important for professional preparation [12], and encouraging retention in theengineering discipline [13], [14], [15]. Internships also provide students with real worldopportunities for personal and professional development through mentor shadowing, attendanceat meetings, briefings, and actual performance of duties.At The Citadel, internship relationships can persist, culminating in employment opportunitiesafter graduation. Engineering students are encouraged to find an internship, and faculty haveseveral industry contacts who seek faculty assistance to employ an intern. These relationshipsoften result in companies committing to working with, developing, and then

Only one question yieldedsignificant results (p=0.33, p < 0.05) indicating discrepancies between the groups: for the currentrole and future desired role comparison, engineering education students agreed more than botheducation and engineering students with the statement, “My current role as a graduate studentwill prepare me for what I want to do when I graduate.” All students scored above 5 “agree”,indicating that students in each discipline believe there is alignment between the current rolesthey have, what they want to be doing, what they believe is expected of them today, what theywant to do in their future

Another aspect of the program that fueled my desire to attend graduate school, wasworking everyday with graduate students in my office. I found these to be normal students, withfamilies and lives outside of school, whom were still able to successfully pursue their advanceddegrees. Students I could identify with and who encouraged
