Interview two people as part of the research for this paper. In your discussion, you
should talk about their goals, what they suggest would be some good goals for you to set, and how to be successful in the engineering program. Your interviewees should include practicing engineers, junior/senior-level engineering students, engineering lab techs, freshman mentors, engineering faculty, or engineering professional advisors.
Discuss your goals for this semester … this school year … graduation … post-graduation. Write your goals in the form of SMART goals as discussed in this video:
How will you successfully achieve each of your goals? In other words, what’s your plan? What will you put in place to hold yourself accountable?
What are you passionate about and how does this relate to you studying engineering? How would you describe your level of perseverance when it comes to studying engineering? Perseverance is related to practice and hope. How can you strengthen your perseverance? Assess yourself on Angela Duckworth’s Grit Scale and reflect on the results.
Would you say that you tend to have a fixed mindset or growth mindset? Think about the way you deal with challenges and obstacles. What is your view about effort? How do you deal with criticism? How do you view other peoples’ success? Which mindset do you think would bring a person more success and more happiness in life? If you see some fixed mindset traits in yourself, what could you do to change your mindset? Assess yourself on Carol Dweck’s Mindset Interactive Quiz and reflect on the results.
