Engineering Education” 2Farmingdale State University, along with most other universities, has embarked on a program offeedback from the very people and institutions that hire our graduates. There is nothing newabout this for it has always been the desire of universities to prepare their students for the worldin which they must eventually operate. Whether going from graduation to work or an advanceddegree program, some attributes simply must be there. Farmingdale State University has set upa program to ascertain feedback from those who see our graduates next. In the Architecture &Construction Management Department, an Industrial Advisory Committee has

The five faculty participants provided written reflections on how theirlife and professional experiences have informed said practices. From a social constructionismparadigm and using narrative inquiry methodology, a combination of in vivo and descriptivecoding (first cycle) followed by emergent and focused coding (second cycle) were used by thefirst three authors to generate a codebook. The theoretical frameworks of Community CulturalWealth, LatCrit, and Hidden Curriculum guided the data analysis and interpretation

With this in mind, wenow introduce the model that governs and sustains the teaching and research mission of ouruniversity laboratory. The synergistic interaction between teaching and research, their driversand end-results is also illustrated. These drivers can be classified into those of resource needs(e.g. qualified personnel) and technology related issues. Resource needs can be further classifiedinto three types – (1) design and application engineers, (2) radar system integrators andmanagers, and (3) research and development scientists. These needs are met by BS, MS, andPhD graduates, respectively. Thus our undergraduate and graduate
