in mind is the major driving force in this entire process. Engineering students in an academic setting do not have the environment, theresponsibilities, the demands or the interactions with other members of an engineering team,nor do they face the real-life situations and challenges that a practicing engineer faces everyday. Therefore, I decided that my mentorship must have as many professional engineeringaspects as academic ones. I built my mentoring role to be part coach preparing students fortheir big game after graduation, part advisor to help them choose the right courses for theircareer path, part trainer to improve their skills, part counselor to help them in hard times, partcheerleader to celebrate their successes and, above

They’re always reassuring me that I’m actually smart and that I would make a good engineer” “My motivation I think mainly comes from the people before me, such as Elon Musk and Leonardo da Vinci and the people with great minds, because they’ve pursued this path and they did great things, and that motivates me to become like them.”Mastery experience: Participants recognized that by obtaining research or internship experiencesas well as real
Paper ID #30441Filling the Technical Gap: The integration of technical modules in a REUProgram for 2+2 Engineering StudentsMrs. Megan Morin, University of North Carolina - Chapel Hill Megan Patberg Morin is a Ph.D. student at North Carolina State University studying Technology and En- gineering Education. Megan studied Middle Childhood Education at the University of Dayton and then began her career as a Middle School Teacher at Wake County Public Schools in North Carolina. As her interest in STEM Education grew, she completed her Master’s of Education in Technology Education at North Carolina State University before
recent research focuses on engineering education and learning sciences with a focus on how to engage students better to prepare their minds for the future. Her other research interests include empirical studies to assess impact of good supply chain practices such as coordinated decision making in stochastic supply chains, handling supply chains during times of crisis and optimizing global supply chains on the financial health of a company. She has published her research in Journal of Business Logistics, International Jour- nal of Physical Distribution and Logistics Management and peer-reviewed proceedings of the American Society for Engineering Education.Dr. Sharon Lynn Chu, University of Florida Dr. Chu received her
anyinitiative attempted. The faculty must have enthusiasm and passion for the engineeringprofession, enthusiasm for passing the torch to the next generation, enthusiasm in upholdingthe highest professional standards, and enthusiasm in believing in the unlimited potential oftheir students! With the goal in mind our team decided to hire as faculty only engineers witha proven track of industry experience that have passion and enthusiasm of teachingengineering the way is done out there in the real world so our graduating students will be“industry ready”. This decision was made based on the fact that from all the engineeringgraduates with a bachelor degree less than 10% continue their studies to a master’s degree orhigher [33] and eventually end up working

He has presented at numerous local, regional, and national conferences and also internationally on telecommunications and wireless topics and on the status of the education of electronics technicians at the two-year college level. His current interests are: the development of novel and innovative systems- level approaches to the education of technicians, applications of the emerging field of wired and wireless networked embedded controllers and sensor/actuator networks, and cyber-physical system applications in the context of the Internet of Things (IoT). c American Society for Engineering Education, 2019 Who is going to teach the skills needed by the IoT Field Technician
