expectations may result in more instability than most haveexperienced in their young lives. Students who do not swiftly recognize their deficiencies andadapt to more effective habits and tools may perform poorly in their classes, leading to low firstsemester GPAs. This in turn may cause them to question their career choice and doubt theirability to successfully complete the engineering program. Such negative self-belief could resultin a low retention rate for the College of Engineering. To help address these problems, the on-line Boot Camp program is designed to help students improve perseverance, math readiness, andspatial visualization. It also helps them adjust to campus life, set realistic academic expectations,choose or confirm their choice of

For manystudents, getting involved with undergraduate research is a life-changing experience, one thatallows them to get excited about science and thus, clarify their career paths7.Most studies, however, have focused on the value of undergraduate research in general, orspecifically in reference to programs targeting junior- and senior-level students. This is not allthat surprising, since not too long ago research was mostly reserved for graduate students. Thefact that many studies have come out in last decade listing the benefits of undergraduate researchhas driven a paradigm shift which has had notable positive results.

In modern engineering it is quitelikely that an operational engineer may be required to be a manager with the skills to thinkbroadly and act responsively. In fact, many professional engineers become involved inmanagement early in their working life, and find their career development path leading tosenior management positions.In these senior roles, they find that their skills as communicators and conceptual planners canoften be more demanding than their engineering skills. Quite often their decision-makingincludes dealing with uncertainty, where the time

Construction management programs across the nation haveadapted to the changing industry needs and trends by incorporating IPD and BIM into existingcourses or creating new courses. Although educating students about the differences between IPDand other more traditional project delivery methods is seemingly straightforward, teaching thecollaborative skills needed for IPD is difficult, especially when students lack the discipline-specific expertise upon which IPD relies. These educational challenges make the relationshipbetween industry and academia of utmost importance.This
