Understanding the Educational and Career Pathways of Engineers by
Engineering skills and knowledge are foundational to technological innovation and development that drive long-term economic growth and help solve societal challenges. Therefore, to ensure national competitiveness and quality of life it is important to understand and to continuously adapt and improve the educational and career pathways of engineers in the United States. To gather this understanding it is necessary to study the people with the engineering skills and knowledge as well as the evolving system of institutions, policies, markets, people, and other resources that together prepare, deploy, and replenish the nation's engineering workforce. This report explores the characteristics and career choices of engineering graduates, particularly those with a BS or MS degree, who constitute the vast majority of degreed engineers, as well as the characteristics of those with non-engineering degrees who are employed as engineers in the United States. It provides insight into their educational and career pathways and related decision making, the forces that influence their decisions, and the implications for major elements of engineering education-to-workforce pathways.
Case Studies in Engineering Education by
This book presents some important issues related to engineering education. Nowadays, the term of engineering education is widely used to address the importance of proper knowledge in the engineering profession. In academia and at the university level, the delivery of engineering topics has become more important than ever before. This book is comprised of five chapters that focus on different topics such as the creation of a bridge between academia and the engineering profession, assessment matters, feedback to learners, e-assessment, and collaborative capstone projects. The importance of e-assessment has become clearer during the pandemic as many academics and professional engineers are engaged in a variety of online assessments either for academic purposes or for industrial matters.
