Such profound ignorancereveals a profound social need.

We found that even when positions did not include “engineer” in the job title,many alumni remained in engineering-related sectors or reported that their positions were relatedto engineering. We also leveraged Sankey diagrams to represent the “flow” of individuals acrossdifferent positions. These diagrams revealed the breadth of career pathways, with alumni movinginto and out of engineering positions. Second, we performed a content analysis on write-inresponses in which alumni expanded upon their survey answers.
