School of Mechanical Engineering Global Engineering Professional Seminar Fall 2010 Week 9  1. Daniel Reyna—EPICS Call out!  2. Bryce Whitson—Ph.D. Program, Purdue ME  2. Quiz I—Friedman, pages  3. Picture Assignment, Profiles—due, two weeks.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 2 Professional Picture ›Free! ›Multi-purpose—scholarships, etc. also 5 points for ME 290 point total › /Event_Registration/ Then, click "ME 290 Fall Appointments.“ /Event_Registration/ ›Professional attire for greatest value, interview attire--suit, polo/sweater, coat/tie ›.jpg file goes to your “Tools” account

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 3 Professional Global Profile ›Multi-purpose— – post on GlobalHUB, – develops interview content, – cover letter content, – resume development – “Statement of Purpose,” graduate schools – “Personal Statement,” scholarships

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 4 Professional Opportunity ›Way to discover what you really have to offer! – 50% completion of BSME – Credentials—courses, projects, activities – Capabilities—illustrated with extended examples, evidence!

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 5 The Profile Package ›About 1000 words ›Two pages, single-spaced, formal report format Title, headings (3 minimum), subheads, page numbers, etc. open line between paragraphs Perfection!

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 6 What’s inside? ›The answer to the interview question, “Tell me about yourself!” – Timeline: present, then past and future! – Begin with present—”Who are you?” “context”—an introduction, e.g., current status as a sophomore in the Purdue BSME program

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 7 What else…. ›The past Only those elements that relate to where you are going in the future! Examples: reasons why you have chosen the profession of engineering, examples of character or strengths

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 8 And, in conclusion…. ›Future – Where are you headed? – Show literacy! – Show passion!

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 9 Professional engineering— Look back to achievements… ›

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 10 Professional engineering--Look forward to challenges… ›Examine the National Academy of Engineering’s “Grand Challenges”Examine the National Academy of Engineering’s “Grand Challenges”

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 11 Visit National Academy of Engineering Website

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 12 Define “Professional”? Lee Shulman, Stanford University and Carnegie Foundation: “The idea of ‘profession’ describes a special and unique set of circumstances for deep understanding, complex practice, ethical conduct, and higher-order learning.” Historical professions: medicine, law, engineering

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 13 Contrasts with “Professions” Science and Systems: Sciences: the science of biochemistry or physics – as applied, becomes the profession of medicine Systems: reasoning systems such as philosophy or mathematics – as applied, these become tools in the professions of law or engineering.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 14 What is distinctive about professions? (From Shulman) Historical professions address critical needs for society: Health, namely, doctors; Justice, namely, lawyers; Productivity and safety, namely, engineers.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 15 Steven Brint, In the Age of Experts* ›Two components of professionalism : Technical: application of broad and complex knowledge [requiring] formal academic study. Moral: commitment to “important social ends…[and] demanding high levels of self-governance.” * Princeton University Press

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 16 Example of “morality "dimension: --From the ASME Code: engineers are ethically required to limit their practice to their area of competency, which is usually a small portion of a discipline, which can be a factor in negligence lawsuits.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 17 Professional Codes Evolve ›ASME Code --Continues to evolve, e.g., a recent addition (#8) is the ethical responsibility of professional mechanical engineers to acknowledge environmental impactASME Code

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 18 Professions evolve collaboratively: ›Knowledge is not enough. ›Community is the core of professionalism. ›In an “age of experts,” professionals are accorded power that is based on knowledge but that is grounded in an ethical community of peers that self-regulate and that enforce on- going learning and collaborating.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 19 Professional Practice a.Examines problems—define problems, design investigations, set up testing, make inferences. b.Conveys recommendations—propose possible solutions, address short falls— provide technical leadership. c.Explains decisions—connect with diverse audiences, unpack issues—deliver professional expertise.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 20 Professional Practice and Communications ›About 50% of professional time, on average, goes into communications: – Records—calendars, notebooks, data collection – With peers—discussing complex situations, planning. – With supervisors—making recommendations, explaining decisions, providing documentation. – With external regulators—arguing for standards, explaining actions, testifying in court and before policy makers.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 21 Facts are not enough ›Roger Boisjoly, project engineer, has spoken widely about the Morton Thiokol o-rings test data that were provided to NASA prior to the Challenger launch that resulted in the loss of the mission.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 22 Thiokol managers not persuaded…

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 23 Thiokol managers not persuaded…

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 24 Needed: Persuasive Communication ›The basic components of persuasion: – Successfully establishing who you are—your credentials, your character—that is, your credibility. – Successfully understanding the commitments and values of both yourself and your audience/client—the problem space. – Successfully conveying to your client/audience the shared problem space.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 25 “Professional Profiles” provide: – Identity—who you are…as a professional engineer in a particular time and place – Opportunity space—what is held in common with reader/audience/site visitor, what is the transactional/collaborative potential? – Action—what is a strategic approach to going forward?

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 26 The Global Professional Profile A document that conveys a current identity of a mechanical engineer in training who has particular technical interests and the intention to become a contributing professional in a world that is increasingly interdependent and where major challenges are emerging.

Global Engineering Professional Seminar 27 Profile content useful: 1.Cover letters 2. Interviews 3. Scholarship applications 4. “Statement of Purpose” for graduate school 5. Career planning 6. Posted on GlobalHub/ME Tools
