Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Through the efforts of government and industry, there is growing recognition among academics of the importance of developing leadership skills in engineering students. Despite this recognition and the increasing level of resource put into engineering leadership programs throughout North America, there is currently little work that illustrates how leadership fits into the broader picture of the heterogeneous nature of engineering work. This work seeks to begin closing that gap by investigating the relationship between models of engineering identity and leadership identity. The investigation is done using quantitative techniques to draw conclusions from two data sets taken from national surveys of undergraduate students in the U.S.. Initial results indicate that while engineering students are engaged in leadership positions more frequently than their peers inother fields (other STEM and non-STEM) they see less of a connection between these roles and their future careers than other students, indicating a potential conflict between an engineering identity and a leadership identity.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
