“report a lowersense of belonging” [34] in comparison to their white and male counterparts [35] – [37].Belonging to STEM fields is dependent on self-efficacy, which is the “confidence in one’sability to successfully perform a given task” [34]. For a mentee to feel positive about their field,the mentee’s perception of the relationship with the mentor is significant. Prunuske et. al. [30]determined that mentees’ confidence improved when they actively participated in researchprojects and acquired “the skills necessary for professional socialization.” They also determinedthat the personality of the mentor was more significant than the research project. In addition, thementees wanted mentors who would communicate and engage with them. When studying

). Not at all of this is without harsh – and sometimes inconsistent – criticisms of theprogram itself. One such bone of contention among faculty is the level of required work withinthe FYE courses. Some faculty had heard from students that the coursework was relatively easy,including a few who explicitly described the work as “GPA boosters.” Other faculty had heardthe opposite, that the work was difficult given the number of credit hours required. The numberof credit hours for the design-centric course in the three-course FYE program is two semesterhours, and this includes the construction of a team-based project, significant team formationtraining, and other activities normally present in three- or four-hour courses.

Students in Colleges of EngineeringIntroductionCommunication skills used by all engineers include writing, reading, speaking, and listening.Whereas reading and listening focus on comprehension, writing and speaking are forms ofexpression. Engineers employ technical writing with the goals of being accurate, brief, clear,and easy to understand. Engineers use many forms of written communication: on the job, theycompose technical memoranda, project reports, and proposals for new business; while ingraduate programs, they may assist professors with technical reports and publishable articles,while individually writing their thesis or dissertation. Written English has many conventionsintended to impose order on the chaotic English language. While the

Over the years, universities have adopted the capstone Senior Design project inorder to provide students the opportunity to put their engineering skills to the test in real-worldprojects. However, educators agree that obtaining competency in engineering design requireshours of hands-on practice beyond the time and scope of a university course.

As shown in Figure 4, this result shows that students not using the newcurriculum had a lower commitment to engineering at the end of the semester. This suggests thatthe new curriculum for both In- and Out-of-Sequence students may provide needed careersupport. This may be attributable to the design of the laboratories themselves, which focus onauthentic problems and require deliverables which are specific to the professional career contextof engineering.References[1] Crippen, K.
