“professional socialization,” acquisition of workplace skillsand attitudes needed for recent graduates to develop successful professional careers [1].Improving these skills may also influence student persistence toward an engineering degree.Student attitudes toward engineering have been identified as playing an important role inpersistence decisions [2]. Specifically, student perceptions of engineering as they relate to futurecareer success are strong predictors of student persistence [3]. Assisting students to developprofessional skills and establish connections to the workplace while still in school may assistthem to complete their degrees and to achieve better success through their workplace transition.In Hull-Blank et al.’s study on the career self

For example, with graphic representations made underboth mathematical and physical background. While both approaches may seem similar, seriousmatters are provoked.An example, often found in the classroom, happens when you ask students which object has ahigher velocity, one traveling at 5 m/s or one traveling at -5 m/s.

Previously, thestudent survey feedback was not positive and promising as expected. In addition, it has beennoticed that the “attitude” of students towards learning chemistry was relatively negative atMSOE, partially due to their majors which are mostly in traditional engineering programs, suchas mechanical and electrical engineering. Students studying within these majors generally do notfeel the need to learn chemistry but rather choose to simply pass the required chemistry course(s)to obtain their degree. In another
