Academic Careers AbstractFor students graduating with a Ph.D. in engineering today and opting for an academiccareer, the path to eventual promotion and tenure is likely to be long and difficult. Whilenew Ph.D.s may understand the importance of continuing to do cutting-edge research,establishing a solid funding record, and obtaining strong teaching recommendations,there are many other factors important to career success of which they may be unaware.For example, they may have little knowledge of how formal promotion and tenure rulesmay be interpreted by their colleagues, what an annual performance evaluation reallymeans, how to establish a good network of mentors with whom to discuss importantcareer decisions

In a time ofeconomic uncertainty, planning and decision-making must be based on an awareness of thelarger societal (and perhaps global) context in which they occur to ensure both the wisestallocation of scarce resources and the best preparation of students for their future careers. Highereducation and graduate education are increasingly scrutinized and pushed to demonstrate valueto the potential student (and possibly to the taxpayers who may provide funding to state-assistedpublic universities and institutions of higher education).Some of the current trends in graduate and higher education are reviewed to help graduateprograms in engineering and technology better

Formal teaching methods are often not supplied – and practical experience is limited,often resulting in poor and ineffective communication between faculty and students.This paper will address a potential solution towards preparing graduate students in becomingfuture engineering faculty. The paper will focus on several engineering graduate students whoparticipated in a grant linking their education, research, and career development. Thedevelopment of the graduate students in the program is rooted in a 20 hour a week commitmentto develop and implement self-created, engineering and research related lessons in local highschools throughout the academic year.

For a uniformtenure and promotion process, a method of peer review is needed to validate this area ofscholarship.While it is great that faculty and students are engaged with improving the lives of the people intheir region, it is important to distinguish the scholarship of application from community serviceor service learning. One widespread view of scholarship is that it requires dissemination of theresults. When working with industry, dissemination of proprietary technical results is notpossible. However, incorporation of such technical results in a manufacturing setting certainlyhas involved a
