accountability for managing independent and group projects in a professional environment. I have seen these experiences pay off outside of CEDC, and I already know that the leadership skills I have acquired will continue to make a positive impact on my future. Leadership in CEDC has been a huge contributor to my development as a leader. It forced me to take ownership of a project and be a driving force within it. This sense of ownership is key to taking on more responsibilities.DiscussionUnlike typical students in the CEDC program, CEDC interns not only have an objectively higherlevel of responsibility for the ethical considerations and successful execution of projects but alsodevelop the aptitude to lead a team of

The Baby Boomer generation, who are now retiring in record numbers, desireda steady career path, valued a strong work ethic, and hoped that company loyalty would lead toappropriate compensation [1]. The Generation X workforce preferred an improved work-balancethat resulted in job satisfaction and stability with a focus on individual advancement [1].Millennials, formally known as Gen Y, have seen downsizing, hiring practices with 2-3 yearcontracts to keep the

As a result, students who are able to demonstrate that they have acquired the skills andqualities of leaders are at an advantage over those who have just learned basic skills [5].Educators are increasingly expected to ready students for college and career; these skillstranscend content knowledge but also provides students with employability skills that will enablethem to quickly adjust to their new roles and be prepared to adapt and further their careers [6].Gaining

For instance, raising student awareness regarding licensing issues forprojects using a proprietary database such as Nexis Uni® is important. Automated text and datamining are not allowed in Nexis Uni® and other library databases, thereby restricting someprojects proposed by students. We need increased opportunities to teach ethical and legal issuesin working with data and to teach students that not all data are free and unrestricted.Data analytics is different from other academic programs because the learning outcomes areabout developing techniques and selecting analyses; instead of instilling knowledge about asubject, the goal is to develop a skill-set

Information literacy (IL) is the abilityto find, evaluate, and use information ethically. Many students are not taught these skills in highschool, and often do not realize their deficiencies until their first year of college when

The reflection should becontinuous throughout project, that is, it should happen before, during, and after the experience.The connection component should link the service experience to the course curriculum. Thereflection should challenge students to engage with current issues, while also contextualizing thework in a way that fits the specific project. Finally, coaching is necessary for supporting studentsintellectually, emotionally and academically.Student reflections can also be useful tools for the

While the majority of faculty reported that they do not incorporateleadership in their own courses (60%), they generally feel that leadership should be introducedduring a student’s freshman year of college (40%) and evaluated using project-based assessmentsor a combination of test- and project-based assessments (80%). Overall, faculty tended to agreewith industry on the importance of leadership competencies in their associated fields, particularlyfor competencies such as ethics/responsibility, communication, professionalism, and ambition.But while this overall profile generically captures faculty ways of knowing leadership amongsurvey respondents, our analysis also uncovered nuances within the data that warrant furtherexploration

Collaborative Learning (e.g. PBLs) have been widelyused in the engineering curriculum [1]. Project/problem based activities have been implementedto help students learn new concepts faster. In this methodology, a question or problem is used todrive the students’ learning activities to produce a product that can be used in real world. PBL isused to prepare students with skills such as leadership, team building, ethical behavior,creativity, critical thinking, and problem solving [2]. PBL has been implemented as part of thecurriculum or as a replacement of the traditional classroom.EMLs are either designed independently or used by modifying existing pedagogy techniquessuch as SBL or ACL. EMLs can be implemented either as single homework assignment or as

Diversity education here includes coursesaddressing the culture and social context of engineering, the disparate outcomes of engineersbelonging to groups traditionally underrepresented in engineering, and inclusive engineeringpractice. Courses such as these would help students contextualize their experiences and those ofothers in a larger body of knowledge about human interaction, challenge implicit biases, andmake a statement about institutional values of inclusion. These courses may align with a largermovement in engineering education to integrate ethics, human-centered design, leadershipdevelopment, and community-based project work—considerations of people, in other

Often, programs would require or prefer a bachelors in health science, life sciences, orengineering with common requirements of the advanced degree mandating courses in tissueengineering, stem cell engineering and related disciplines.
