Similarly, in Bioengineering, none of the non-faculty teaching stafflisted on the website are female. This can lead to a delegitimizing of the academic purpose andauthority of SEEFs due to unintended gender bias, and less emphasis on the organizationalculture capital (the shared sense of identity, norms, values and trust) and role models needed forundergraduate students to develop an engineering identity. This includes students seeingthemselves as a future educators or in an academic role such as a faculty member, which is a keyaspect of supporting diversity within the undergraduate population [36], with 41 percent of the1,525 students within the

Another largecontributing factor to persistence is student aspirations and how well the discipline – or moreaccurately, their perception of the discipline – lines up with their career aspirations and personalinterest. To improve retention, engineering programs need to ensure that students recognize howtheir career aspirations and personal interests align with their chosen field early in their studies.Toward this end, an accurate picture of student interest is needed.Study PopulationThe authors teach an introductory course

To maintain relevancy and competitiveness in engineeringeducation, hands-on learning experiences with a global perspective needs to be integrated intothe curriculum [10], [11].

Continuing Professional Development

Formative Feedback CoachingIntroductionFaculty development, as it relates to teaching and learning, has been a persistent challenge inhigher education. College faculty generally begin their careers with no formal training in teach-ing and, consequently, ‘teach as I was taught’ is the starting point for most new faculty. Respon-sibility for faculty development of teaching, therefore, falls to an administrative unit of theuniversity. Many institutions have successful faculty orientation and mentoring programs, butthose programs often fall short of moving new teachers to effective practice in engagement peda-gogy using active learning strategies. Modifying the practices of experienced faculty is particu-larly difficult.This paper explores how faculty

In doing so, studentswere engaging with competency development, creating a framework within which they couldorganize understanding of their emerging competency over time. Further, connecting programlearning goals and general education (or ABET) requirements provides a framework forinterdisciplinary collaboration and allows administrators to streamline institutional assessment(e.g. ABET accreditation visits) using evidence collected in department-based ePortfolios.If students are not aware of their developing competency, many opportunities for learning,personal development, and professional identity development may be lost [28].

Autoethnographic techniques are used to construct three accounts ofthe student’s encounters with an upper level administrator, various members of faculty, and anacademic advisor. Critical analysis of these experiences using a prior evidence-based model ofstories ‘told’ about engineering in the public discourse reveals tensions between the freshmanstudent’s values and career interests and the emergent, dominant discourse he observed in hisundergraduate program. These tensions are described in terms of: i) The prioritization of nationaleconomic recovery and growth over the life and career goals of individuals; ii) A predominantfocus on the quantitative and technical aspects of

For example, the traditional structural materials forbuildings and bridges are concrete, steel, masonry, and timber. Over the last few years, ourstudents have also explored recycled plastics, structural insulated panels (SIPs), insulatingconcrete forms (ICFs), and autoclaved aerated concrete.

shortcomings of this construct is that it only provides a glimpse of student‟s plans upto three years into the future. It does not capture the fine-grained complexities that oftenaccompany career decision-making, e.g., the plan to use an engineering job as a stepping stone toa non-engineering job, or the decision to pursue a non-engineering job before eventuallyreturning to engineering. The APPLE survey addressed this issue by asking participants howlikely it was that they would do each of the following after graduation: work in an engineeringjob, working in a non-engineering job, go to graduate school in an engineering discipline, and goto graduate school in a non-engineering discipline1.Table 7: Professional Persistence by GroupGroup Number Group

Consequently, and based on the literature, thenumber of contemporary graduates that lack the industry-required skills has increased. Becauseof the skills gap, newly hired engineers may require additional training to attain criticalcompetencies, which cost employers time and money.This paper examines the skills required by ECE graduates in the United States and presentssurvey results from ECE professional engineers.
