This paper reports on work-in-progress ofdesign and evaluation of course interventions to promote strategic networking among undergraduateengineering students. These experiences are part of a course in Engineering Leadership at Texas A&MUniversity.

Because the practice of engineeringfor technological innovation is changing and because engineering education cannot meet all of therequirements relevant to the needs and skill sets required for career-long growth of engineers in industry,within the standard four-year baccalaureate curriculum, there is a heightened sense of urgency that majoreducational reform is needed at the graduate level.

Research shows that most students enter STEM majorswith little knowledge of what a career in their specified major does. In order to address thisproblem, this study provided first-year students the opportunity to job shadow a near peer mentorwho was participating in a cooperative education program.
