While this was a survey of all ASEE student members, not just those affiliated with a student chapter, we can reasonably project that professors and specifically the student chapter faculty advisor is in a position to introduce many students to the professional organization and its student chapter.…”

Assessing Distinctives of the New XXXX Engineering Program in Terms of Their Impact on Recruitment, Student Satisfaction and Employment Potential

It is also of importance to note that nearly 20 percent of the respondents have never attended a single ASEE event" [11]. Also of note is the lawnmower exercise used by the US Naval Academy-a week-long immersive exercise designed to build demonstrable technical skills in structures and materials, thermo-fluid sciences, and engineering design; with the corollary goal of promoting confidence and kinesthetic learning in the students who were tasked with disassembling, reassembling, and analyzing the operation of the familiar machine.…”
