, and to what extent are they interested in impact-driven work?2.2 Impact-Driven Interest as a Career ChoiceThere are many capacities in which one may address societal challenges, e.g. as a volunteer,employee, and/or founder. To narrow the scope, the current study explores how engineeringundergraduates consider addressing societal challenges as a career choice.In the early 1990’s Robert Lent proposed a model of career choice called Social CognitiveCareer Theory (SCCT, see Figure 1) that provides a framework for understanding, explaining,and predicting the processes through which people develop occupational choice (Lent & Brown,2006; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994). The SCCT model has been shown to be useful inpredicting career choice
the most significant limitation of the analytic rubrics: they didn’t effectivelyrepresent for the students the way(s) in which design deliverables are evaluated in anon-academic context, and therefore writing in response to those rubrics wasn’t providing the“authentic,” real-world design project experience that is one of the goals of our course. Asupervisor or potential client wouldn’t decide how they felt about a design report by tallying up aseries of points awarded for discrete categories, nor would they be likely to evaluate an oralprogress report by considering the technical content separate from the way in which that contentis delivered; audiences react and respond to written and oral communication much moreholistically--even those

the 1990’s, there was anational effort to develop programs to involve faculty to train them to use more varied teachingmethods [9]. Previous faculty development programs include SUCCEED and ECSEL Coalitions[10], FOUNDATION Coalition [11], and GATEWAY Coalition [9]. These entities work todevelop and execute professional development programs for faculty to train them in diverse andmodern teaching approaches.One type of program that has shown positive progress is based upon summer workshops orinstitutes for faculty devoted to teaching practices. One example is the National AcademiesSummer Institutes (SIs) [12, 13]. Beginning as a biology summer institute, this program has beenoperating since 2004. The SIs are intensive multi-day workshops were

the way.The task of coalition building can be described as the task of selling the idea [12]. Sellingthe idea in this context means finding potential allies for its implementation. Thus, a largepart in the management of innovation is the management of attention [30]. The process canbe described as an interplay of several roles that are taken by several individuals. There isthe “champion” of an idea who is usually the person or the team who generated the idea orwas/were early advocates [31, 32]. The champion tries to gain the attention of people in theorganization that s/he evaluates as indispensable for the realization of the idea [12]. These areusually people in the higher hierarchy of the organization. Galbraith [33] distinguishesbetween
