Full-Length vs Work-In-Progress Papers

The expectations of results presented in a Full-Length paper submittal may be considered as higher than those in a Work-In-Progress paper. For instance, Full-Length Paper submittals are typically longer (6-10 pages plus pages for references and biographical information) and present final results or the final phase of research results. Work-In-Progress papers are often shorter (4-7 pages plus pages for references and biographical information) and present results of incomplete or early/intermediate stage studies. The value of the content of papers is not judged by the number of pages.

The Aerospace Division values both types of papers as they present different opportunities for authors and the audience. Both types of papers are double-blind peer reviewed. Many of the Work-In-Progress papers are presented in the Poster Session where presenters can interact with attendees as they travel through the session area rather than in a formal presentation. The papers that are presented in the Poster Sessions are included in the Proceedings and considered archival.

Suggested topics include:
1. Engineering Epistemologies (research on what constitutes engineering thinking and knowledge within social contexts now and in the future)

Professional development of aerospace engineers
Integration of professional skills into an aerospace engineering course
Aerospace systems engineering

2. Engineering Learning Mechanisms (research on engineering learners’ developing knowledge and competencies in context)

Paper Submission Pathways!

CEED is offering two paper submission pathways: Research Track and Work-in-Progress, subject to the number and type of submissions received and accepted. All ASEE divisions, including CEED, are publish-to-present. Both tracks require submission of an abstract and paper that will be peer reviewed (double-blind review process); however, the type of paper for each track is different. Engineers or cooperative education and experiential education professionals from either academia or industry should consider submitting papers that are relevant to cooperative education, internships, experiential or work-integrated learning. This includes every form of experiential education including but not limited to service learning, capstone projects, undergraduate research, internships, co-ops and apprenticeships.

WORK-IN-PROGRESS TRACK. Abstracts and papers submitted to this track can be categorized as work-in-progress (WIP). This track is suitable for co-op and experiential education practitioners, as well as researchers who are still in the early stages of their study. This special format is intended to give authors of WIPs the opportunity to pitch their papers in a short presentation, followed by discussion of their work in greater detail with attendees. Papers are shorter papers (6 pages or less). The structure at the conference will include short presentations (3-5 minutes) and facilitated discussion and questions. Papers in this category should have Work in Progress as part of their title.

RESEARCH TRACK. This track is suitable for complete research papers: evidence-based practice papers, research papers, and theory papers. Abstracts should address Background and Motivation, a description and justification of methodology, results and data analysis and conclusions and significance.

PANEL SUBMISSIONS. These sessions should be centered around a specific topic and enlist three to five panelists and at least on moderator to share experiences or work. Panels should be interactive and allow for questions or discussion that move across all panelists. Panel submissions can be sent directly to the ASEE Program Chair: Jenny Strickland

Purdue University

j nstrick@purdue.edu

Author Guidelines:

Please note that both the abstract and the draft paper reviews are double-blind, so do not include personal or institutional identification.
Abstracts: Submitted abstracts should be approximately one page or less in length, with a suggestion of 250-500 words.
Full Paper submissions: full paper submission should be approximately 10-20 pages in length, inclusive of figures and other graphical elements.

Failure to comply with this directive may result in the rejection of the submission.

Please refer to the Author’s Kit, available at the ASEE 2025 Annual Conference website, for the Abstract and Draft Paper Format Guidelines. All submissions are expected to adhere to the specified formatting requirements.

The ECCNE Division will accept abstracts for:

Full Paper: The criterion for a full paper is that it represents, at the time of draft paper submission, work that is complete, containing actual results and analysis to support significant conclusions for peer review. Full papers are expected to be no longer than 12 pages in length. Minor allowances may be made at the Program Chair’s discretion, but excessively long papers may be rejected without review.
Work-in-Progress (WIP) Paper: In addition to traditional full conference papers, the ECCNE Division will accept Work-in-Progress (WIP) papers. WIP papers report on work that is in the process of study and/or implementation for which results will not be available by the time of draft paper submission, for studies that are inconclusive, and for studies at an early to intermediate state for which authors are seeking feedback from the community. A submission of this paper type MUST have a title that begins with “Work-in- Progress:” with the colon separating the phrase from the remainder of the title. WIP papers may be assigned to a poster presentation session to allow authors to maximize the opportunity for extended conversations regarding their ongoing research. WIP papers are not eligible for the Division’s Best Paper Award.

For both the above-mentioned tracks, an abstract must be submitted. If the abstract is accepted, then a draft paper submission will be requested for peer review. Note that abstract acceptance does not guarantee paper acceptance. The ECCNE Division highly encourages submissions from members and non-members who have not presented at previous ASEE conferences, particularly for the WIP track.

Abstract submission will open on September 1, 2024, and will close on October 1, 2024. ASEE’s paper submission process and timelines are explicit, and the program chair CANNOT override them. Deadlines will NOT be extended this year. Abstracts submitted to ECCNED should be between 250–500 words and should include a brief introduction, a statement about the focus of the paper, the work which has been done, assessments, and a conclusion. All abstracts must be submitted via the ASEE paper management system and will be peer-reviewed (double-blinded). All important dates and deadlines for authors can be found at the conference website. The 2025 ASEE Annual Conference and Exposition Author's Kit, Plagiarism Guidelines, Paper Procedures, and other important information can be found at the “For Authors” section (under ‘Paper Management’) of the conference website. All ASEE papers are published to present. Papers accepted for publication in the ASEE Conference Proceedings must be presented by at least one registered conference participant in a designated technical or poster session. All authors are expected to adhere to the guidelines put forth in the Author’s Kit and Plagiarism Guidelines.

Workshops and Panel Sessions: If you are interested in organizing or participating in a workshop or a panel session at the conference, please email your proposal to the ECCNED Program Chair, Glenn Wrate at gwrate@nmu.edu as soon as possible. Panels must submit an abstract (by the abstract submission deadline), which will be used as the description for the panel session, and they may also submit a full paper. All workshop hosts and panelists must be registered for the conference to conduct the proposed session.

The ECCNE Division has a best paper award that is presented at the Division’s business meeting during the annual conference.

2025 ASEE Annual Conference – Engineering Ethics Division Call for Papers (CFP)

The Engineering Ethics Division invites abstracts for papers for the 2025 ASEE Annual Conference in Montreal, June 22-25, 2025. We welcome papers and presentations that attend to topics within engineering ethics, broadly construed, including a focus on theory, research, teaching, and professional development. We invite authors with diverse perspectives and approaches, including students, researchers, faculty, administrators, institutional leaders, and industry practitioners.

Topics of Special Interest for 2025

In addition to seeking submissions that focus on traditional topics represented in engineering ethics (e.g., ethics education and research initiatives), for the 2025 conference, we are encouraging submissions that highlight the expansive scope of ethics within engineering. Of particular interest are the following topics:

● Engineering ethics considerations in emerging technologies: especially AI, big data, the use of AI in education, the misuse of AI in various contexts, including disinformation/misinformation and education, dangers of using AI techniques such as LLMs in education

● Examinations of ethical engineering in industry and applied contexts, advocating for ethics in professional life

● Student experiences in ethical engineering identity formation and development

● Philosophical contributions to engineering ethics

● Extensions of research methods applied to engineering ethics related questions

● Ethics in engineering as related to environmental and sustainability concerns

● Issues in diversity, equity, and inclusion with ethical import

Special Session Topic Area for 2025

For this coming conference, we are also interested in papers relevant to the intersection of ethics and leadership. Papers accepted for this purpose will be part of a joint session with the Engineering Leadership Development Division at the annual conference. Please let us know whether you’d like to be considered for this special joint session.

Submission Types

There are three types of submissions: Papers, Special Sessions, and Distinguished Lectures.

Traditional Papers:

We accept the following types of traditional paper presentation submissions – please specify the type you are submitting.

● Research Papers: Complete or near complete research studies that are situated within a body of previous scholarship and utilize accepted research methodologies. Results, conclusions, and future research will be presented.

● Theory Papers: A review paper or theory-focused paper; must include a review of relevant prior work in engineering ethics research or education and present important insights or theories for future evaluation or translation into practice.

● Evidence-Based Practice Papers: Instruction-focused papers about an educational project and its implications for engineering educators; must include presentation of pedagogical and/or ethical frameworks and their relationship to prior work in ethics education. Relevant literature citations, methodology, and assessment results must be presented.

● Work in Progress (WIP) Papers: for research studies at an intermediate stage for which authors are seeking to present early findings and receive feedback from the community. Please indicate if you are submitting a WIP.

● Posters are best for early-stage projects or conceptual proposals that would benefit from more direct discussion and feedback from the ASEE audience and can include work-in-progress research presentations or educational interventions that have not yet developed into research. Please indicate if you are submitting for a poster presentation only.

● Engineering Ethics case studies and practice papers (NEW): We want the ethics division programs to serve as a forum to share case studies. Case studies that focus on the use of tools and techniques that have resulted in successful ethics teaching or successful practice in industry that enables participants to take away lessons into professional life. This track is especially suitable for papers without fully drawn out evidence to qualify as an evidence-based paper.

Additional Submission Options:

● Special Sessions can be interactive presentations, panels, or workshops on an ethics-related topic of interest to engineering/engineering technology and teaching professionals. Special sessions can be a group of four or five related papers on a topic of significance or a panel of several invited speakers*.

● Workshops are an alternative option and are normally presented on the Sunday immediately preceding the conference. Workshop presenters are required to cover the cost of the workshop and are therefore encouraged to supplement workshop fees with appropriate extramural grants and subsidies. (Please note that even after accepting a proposal, the program chair may cancel any workshop that becomes likely to incur a financial loss to the division)*.

● Distinguished Speaker sessions or distinguished panel sessions also are very welcome each year for the Ethics Division. These sessions have a separate timeline for proposals and acceptance. Please see the ASEE website for details*.

*Please contact the division’s Program Chair to discuss special session proposals, pre-conference workshops, and/or Ethics Division Sponsorship (sole or joint) on distinguished speaker sessions before submitting your proposal to the ASEE.

All Submissions

Initial submission abstracts should be approximately 300-500 words in length and include the following information: the type of paper, a clear statement of objectives, the relevance of the work to ethics, analysis and/or assessment methods, results or findings, and next steps. Please provide a brief indication of the type of submission in brackets in the title (e.g., [Research Paper, Ethics of Emerging Technology]). Abstracts must be submitted electronically through the ASEE paper submission system by the deadline of Tuesday, October 1, 2025. This is a firm deadline and will not be extended.

If you have any questions, please contact Program Chair, Udayan Das (udd1@stmarys-ca.edu), or Division Chair, Rockwell Clancy (rfclancy@vt.edu).

The Engineering Leadership Development Division (LEAD) of the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) seeks paper abstracts for the 2025 Annual Conference in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, June 22-25, 2025. The LEAD Division is committed to advancing our shared understanding of engineering leadership theory and practice to enhance the contributions of engineering students and professionals to their respective institutions, industries, and society. Integral to these objectives is our commitment to fostering the development of inclusive, diverse, and equitable engineering leaders, educators, and researchers.

All paper submissions are publish-to-present. Papers submitted to technical sessions are peer-reviewed through the LEAD Division, and those accepted will appear in the ASEE Conference Proceedings. The first step in proposing a paper is to submit an abstract to the ASEE paper management system by October 1, 2024. Abstracts should be 250-500 words. If your abstract is accepted, the first draft paper deadline is January 15, 2025. Paper submissions may include research studies or practice reports. We accept works in progress. We encourage submissions within the core leadership learning domains of leader ethics, self-awareness, team awareness, and project awareness for teams and leaders. We especially encourage papers aligned with our four strategic initiatives: Inform, Design, Explore, and Assess.

Strategic Initiatives

The following is a list of potential topics that align with our strategic initiatives, current research trends, and needs.

Inform: Document the need for and value of engineering leadership (EL) education in university and workplace contexts.
Design: Demonstrate evidence-based practices for designing, implementing, and sustaining EL programs.
Explore: Examine leadership theory and/or practice in engineering education or workplace settings.
Assess: Evaluate the impact of curricular interventions, EL development models, or EL programs on engineering students and professionals.

For each initiative area, papers should include more than simple descriptions of programs.

Special Session Topic Areas for 2025 – We are also interested in papers relevant to the intersection of ethics and leadership as well as civil engineering education and leadership development. Papers accepted for this purpose will be part of a joint session with the Ethics Division or the Civil Engineering Division at the annual conference.

Paper Submissions

The LEAD Division accepts abstracts for the following two submission types:

Research papers present new findings in the context of prior research and existing models to reveal relationships, patterns, or insights relevant to engineering leadership. Papers should include an introductory problem statement, a review of relevant literature, a description of the research methodology, results, and implications of the work in furthering the LEAD Division’s strategic priorities. We encourage authors to consider aspects of diversity, equity, and inclusion in their research design and reporting of results. Research papers may include literature reviews, meta-analyses, empirical studies, or theory development. As the field of leadership studies is broad, we strongly encourage authors to cite research from fields outside of engineering, including but not limited to psychology, sociology, business, education, and the humanities.
Practice papers highlight and analyze innovative engineering leadership education practices in industry or classroom contexts. These papers are not required to include an exhaustive literature review, but authors are encouraged to cite relevant literature, theories, or frameworks that inform the highlighted practice. The authors should include some measures of effectiveness and identify implications for EL education and/or training in other contexts. Practice papers may be case studies, curricular innovation, EL assessment tool development, or program evaluation. We encourage authors to consider aspects of diversity, equity, and inclusion in their program design and reporting of results.

Both research and practice papers can be submitted as Work-in-Progress (WIP) papers. WIP papers are 3-5 page extended abstracts reporting on projects that are not yet fully developed and/or are only supported by preliminary data. For example, papers describing innovative practices without a formal evaluation of effectiveness are acceptable as WIPs. Full papers published in the ASEE conference proceedings are typically 10-15 pages long. Out of respect for our reviewers, please keep to these page limits.

Abstract Submission Details

Abstracts will be peer-reviewed by members of the LEAD community. They should be 250-500 words in length and include:

Submission type (research, practice, WIP-research, or WIP-practice). WIPs should include “Work in Progress” in the title using the following form: [TITLE]: A Work in Progress.
LEAD Division strategic priority (Inform, Design, Explore, or Assess)
Guiding question, problem statement, or key project objectives
Project context
Theoretical perspective, conceptual framework, or instructional approach being used

Hence, the division encourages submissions from both scholars of teaching and learning and educational researchers. Collaborative work and submissions from representatives of both groups are also encouraged and welcome.

As experiments and laboratories play an integral role in engineering education across all disciplines, ELOS is interested in fostering collaboration across divisions. To that end, we sponsored joint sessions with Electrical and Computer Engineering, Chemical and Materials Engineering, and Civil Engineering during the ASEE 2024 Conference. We plan to arrange similar joint sessions at the ASEE 2025 Conference and actively look for further partner divisions as the year progresses. So, authors who might not have thought of submitting to ELOS in the past but discuss laboratory-related education in context with a specific engineering discipline, could benefit from the joined audiences in these sessions. Authors are encouraged to reach out to us. Finalized joint sessions will be announced at a later date.

Submission Types

1. Technical Papers

Attendees at ELOS sessions have expressed strong interest in the practical aspects of instruction, which is especially relevant to laboratory instruction. Papers describing the implementation, assessment, and integration of both hands-on and online exercises with laboratory or lecture-based classes are encouraged.

Presentation type: Slide-based presentation

2. Work in Progress (WIP) Papers

Work-in-progress papers will also be considered. Abstracts and full Submission of this paper type MUST have a title that begins with “Work-in-Progress: paper title” with the colon separating the phrase from the remainder of the title. Work‐in‐Progress submissions are for reporting on work that is still in the process of study and/or implementation for which results will not be available by the time of draft paper submission.

Presentation type: Slide-based presentation

3. Bring Your Own Experiment (BYOE) Submissions

Unlike traditional papers and presentations, the BYOE sessions highly encourage live demonstrations of laboratory exercises and equipment! The content of the submissions in BYOE sessions focuses more on implementation, which includes fabrication, deployment, and student usage in addition to the underlying pedagogy. BYOE sessions will be publish-to-present. BYOE abstracts must be submitted using the ASEE submission portal. Submissions should be identified by including “BYOE” at the beginning of the title of the abstract. For example, a submission to demonstrate an experiment on optical encoders would be titled “BYOE: A Deconstructed Apparatus for Exploring Rotary Optical Encoders.”

Presentation type: Live demonstration

Additional Notes

Student Papers: The division strongly encourages student authors to submit papers and accepts student papers in all the three above-described submission types. Student papers should have a student first author and a faculty member as a co-author, and students are expected to present at the conference. Student paper submissions should follow the regular guidelines and review process for the respective submission type, as appropriate.

Papers on Diversity and Inclusion: The division strongly encourages work that connects instructional experimentation and diversity and inclusion efforts. However, the contribution of the submitted work in that area should be clearly placed within the context of the technique or the methodology of the presented experiment of laboratory.

Review Process

Technical and WIP Papers

Abstracts should be 500 words or less. Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit full-length
or work-in-progress papers for peer review.

Abstracts will be reviewed against the following criteria:

Does the work fit with the theme of ELOS, i.e. does the paper concern experimental and/or Laboratory-oriented learning experiences?
Does the abstract's content suggest that a full paper is likely to be of sufficient merit to warrant review?

Papers in the technical paper and WIP paper categories will be reviewed against the following criteria:

Readability: Is the paper well written? Is it free of grammatical and spelling errors? Is the paper easy to read? Are the key findings made obvious to the reader?
Technical Merit: Is the analysis sound and well documented? Are the measurement techniques carefully defined and appropriate to the quantities being measured and the appropriate units used? Do the discussion and conclusions follow from the data and analysis presented in the paper? Are assertions of improvements in education supported by rigorous assessment?
Use of Figures and Graphics: Are the figures and graphics clear and effective at illustrating the equipment and data? Do the figures and graphics support the discussion and conclusions? Are the figures and graphics explained by a discussion in the paper's text? Are axes labeled properly and units indicated?
Innovation in Education: Does the paper describe an innovative approach to laboratory-based instruction? Does the paper contribute to the advancement of laboratory-based instruction?
Broad Interest: Is the paper of interest outside of a narrowly targeted audience? Is there a potential crossover of interest to other subject areas or audiences?
Significance and Impact: Is the paper of significance relative to other papers in the same field of interest? Will other researchers or instructors in the same field cite the paper? Is the paper likely to have an impact on the practice of engineering education, or future research in engineering education?
References: Are there enough references on prior research on engineering pedagogy applied by the authors and review of similar work done by other educators in the field?

BYOE Submissions

The review process will follow the same deadlines as the standard ASEE abstract and manuscript process with peer review. Abstracts should be 500 words or less. Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to submit full-length submission for peer review. Note that the BYOE paper should be in the form of a procedure description and instruction. The written submission should be crafted in a way that will allow others to easily duplicate the experiment and explain the motivation for the development of the experiment and the expected learning outcomes. An example of a BYOE paper is linked here. BYOE submissions selected for presentation after reviewing the required written submission will be published in the Proceedings of the ASEE Annual Conference.

BYOE Abstracts will be reviewed against the following criteria:

Is the motivation for the development of the experiment clearly explained?
Is the description of the experiment that will be demonstrated during the BYOE session sufficient?
Does the abstract's content suggest that a full submission will interest others in the field?

BYOE submissions will be reviewed against the following criteria:

Readability: Is the description and associated support materials well-developed, easily read/understood, free of grammatical errors or visual inadequacies? (Does it communicate well what it intends to?) Is the experimental procedure made obvious to the reader such that a person in the field could adopt/adapt the experiment?
Technical Merit: Is there sufficiently detailed information provided so that others can reproduce the experiment? Are the measurement techniques carefully defined and appropriate to the quantities being measured? Does the experiment achieve the stated educational objectives?
Use of Figures and Graphics: Are the figures and graphics clear and effective at illustrating the experimental apparatus? Are the figures and graphics explained by description in the paper's text? Are axes labeled properly and units indicated?
Innovation in Education: Does the BYOE submission describe an innovative approach to laboratory-based instruction or an approach that addresses a fundamental student misconception through a hands-on activity?
Broad Interest: Is the paper of interest outside of a narrowly targeted audience? Is there potential for a crossover of interest to other subject areas or audiences?
Significance and Impact: Is the paper of significance relative to other papers in the same field of interest? Will other researchers or instructors in the same field adopt the demonstrated experiment? Is the submission likely to have an impact on the practice of engineering education?
Logistical Feasibility: Is the experiment transportable enough to bring to the conference for a demonstration? If it is not transportable, has it been shown that a reasonably translatable account of its design and implementation can be presented such that the audience would be able to adequately understand it? Can it be represented without bringing it to effectively serve as a demonstration?

Awards

ELOS sponsors three (3) Best Paper Awards and one (1) Best Student Paper Award consisting of certificates and cash prizes of $300 each. Funding for these awards is graciously provided by the International Association of Online Engineering (IAOE). All papers submitted to the division will be considered for these awards. The division will make awards for ‘Best Overall Paper’, ‘Best Diversity and Inclusion Paper’, ‘Best BYOE Paper’, and ‘Best Student Paper’.

The Liberal Education/Engineering & Society (LEES) Division invites abstracts for papers and posters, and proposals for full sessions, panel discussions, workshops, and non-traditional session formats for the ASEE Annual Conference, June 22 - 25, 2025 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. We especially welcome sessions that highlight local collaborators and engineering practice and engagement in and around Montreal and/or reimagine the traditional conference paper-session. If you would like to propose a non-paper or poster-centered session of any kind, please email the LEES Program Chair, Kari Zacharias, at kari.zacharias@umanitoba.ca as early as possible. We are excited to work with you on planning, proposing, and reviewing these sessions.

LEES is interested in the role of the humanities, arts, social sciences, and communication in engineering education, and in the role of engineering in broad and relevant liberal education. Engineering processes and products are value-laden; work in LEES calls attention to implicit and explicit values in engineering education. LEES welcomes proposals related to any of the diverse areas falling within the scope of our division, including but not limited to: critical analysis of social and ethical dimensions of technoscience; situating engineering within larger social, historical, political, and cultural contexts; course- and curricular-level integration of engineering and the humanities, arts, and social sciences; and the development, study, and transformation of engineering education programs.

LEES welcomes submissions on any topic pertaining to the broader division goals. For the 2025 conference, we especially encourage work that pertains to the specific themes below. We encourage prospective contributors to consider building collaborations across ASEE divisions that might support our scholarship and capacity building. Past LEES work has had strong overlaps with, among other divisions: Ethics; Equity, Culture & Social Justice in Education; and Technological and Engineering Literacy/Philosophy of Engineering.

1. Engineering Education for Truth and Reconciliation

We invite submissions that explore engineers’ past and present connections with colonialism, as well as ways that engineering education can support Indigenous sovereignty and actions towards truth and reconciliation. Work in this area may analyze the role of engineering in (re)creating colonial relationships (Nieusma & Riley, 2010), examine engineers’ engagement with Indigenous communities (Ketchum et al., 2023), or critically explore STEM education as a space for reconciliation, decolonization, or Indigenization (Liboiron, 2021; Valle, Slaton, & Riley 2022). We welcome contributions that address colonialism, decolonization, and reconciliation in a wide variety of local contexts, including but not limited to American and Canadian settler colonialism and the many Indigenous cultures of Turtle Island (North America).

2. Engineering and Conflict

Engineers have long played significant roles in global politics, war, and revolution, but the field of engineering education has shown reluctance to confront its own involvement: “to write of politics, activism, or past events is not to engage in any familiar way with engineering epistemics” (Slaton & Vakil, 2024). We invite contributions that contravene this norm by examining relationships between engineering and conflict, both in the literal sense of engineers’ involvement in war, protest, labor disputes, etc. (Nieusma & Blue, 2012; Riley & Lambrinidou, 2015; Wisnioski, 2012) and as an analytical category that can be applied to teaching and/or research in engineering education (Tonn & Hira, 2024). In the context of ongoing geopolitical conflicts, rights violations, and anti-DEI legislative efforts, how might engineering education prepare students for conversations, considerations, and choices that acknowledge and address conflict?

3. Engineering and Climate Change

We invite submissions that focus on engineering values and practices pertaining to energy transition, decarbonization, and sustainability broadly. While engineering has contributed to climate change, it has also hidden the evidence (Oreskes & Conway, 2011) and dodged or denied responsibility (Pawley, 2019). With states’ increased attention to justice in energy transition and environmental racism (Heffron, 2022; Sovacool, 2021), we ask, how might engineering education prepare students to participate in complicated, global, and local sociotechnical transitions for climate change mitigation?

4. Sociotechnical Integration in Engineering Education: LEES leads efforts to critique and dissolve the artificial boundaries between “social” and “technical” to show that engineering is always a sociotechnical endeavor. LEES work holds engineers accountable for understanding how to bridge the socio-technical “divide,” and minimizing discriminatory disciplinary chauvinism (Reddy et al., 2023; Bairaktarova & Pilotte, 2020; Smith & Smith, 2018; Carrigan & Bardini, 2021). This work may be done on a variety of scales, from the personal to the cross-institutional. We especially welcome submissions that recognize, analyze, and otherwise engage with a “generative tension” among LEES participants, a group that serves as a venue for engineering educators grounded in science and technology studies and/or engineering studies and also makes space for liberal arts education program building which includes promoting the importance of communication and professional skills, etc (Nieusma, 2015).

The first step for all submission formats is an abstract or proposal. Abstracts for papers and posters must be submitted via Nemo by October 1, 2024. Note that this is one month earlier than past abstract submission deadlines! Abstracts should be approximately 300-500 words long and will be peer reviewed.

We will also work to incorporate a wide variety of other formats into the peer review system, designate them as special sessions, or otherwise find ways to include this work in the conference. We plan to repeat the special session format on teaching case studies that LEES hosted at the 2024 conference. Please stay tuned for more information about submissions to this session! If your proposal does not fit comfortably into the submission options available through Nemo, please email LEES Program Chair Kari Zacharias (kari.zacharias@umanitoba.ca) to initiate the submission and review process.

ASEE is once again adamant that they will not extend any deadlines this year because they are trying to adapt a standard, annual calendar. Information for Authors will be posted by ASEE regarding submission times and uploading instructions. All paper submissions are publish-to-present and will be peer reviewed by the LEES Division process after submission to ASEE’s paper management system. Abstracts and papers are double-blind reviewed. It is the author’s responsibility to ensure that the requirements for double-blind review are met. The abstract and subsequent drafts should NOT include authors’ names or institutional affiliations nor should author names be in the file name or in document properties. It is not necessary to include references in the abstract. Additional information will be shared to the listserv for current members and the LEES website as the year progresses.

To share ideas for panels/workshops or any questions about possible papers, panels, co-sponsoring with other divisions or other special session concepts, or to express interest in serving as a peer reviewer or session moderator, please contact the program chair:

Abstracts and papers undergo a blind review process, and it is the authors’ responsibility to ensure the requirements for anonymized review are met. In particular, authors’ names and institutions should not be included in the text, file name, or document properties of an abstract or paper submitted for review.

The Mathematics Division accepts 3 types of papers: Evidence-Based Work, Conceptual, and Work-in-Progress (WiP).

Download PDF

The Multidisciplinary Engineering Division (MULTI) invites abstracts on subjects of interest to those involved with multidisciplinary engineering programs, engineering programs without disciplinary tags, and the promotion of multidisciplinary approaches in engineering education. Multidisciplinary is interpreted here in the broadest sense to include education-related scholarly work that integrates various engineering disciplines as well as the sciences and liberal arts. MULTI accepts abstracts from a wide breadth of researchers, educators, and practitioners.

Authors should consider submitting technical papers for oral or poster presentations, as well as recommendations for interactive sessions and special panels.

Please note: The Division will not be accepting papers that list a generative AI as a co-author (ex: ChatGPT, Bard, etc.). If generative AI was used in any capacity please add it in the acknowledgements at the end of the paper.*

Technical papers can be a Complete Paper or Work-in-Progress Paper (WIP):

Complete Paper: The criterion for a Complete Paper is that it represents, at the time of draft paper submission in early 2025, work for which available results can be analyzed to yield supported and significant conclusions. Complete Paper submissions may be reassigned to WIP if they are judged to fall under the WIP criteria.
Work-in-Progress (WIP) Paper: Work-in-Progress papers report on work that is in the process of study and/or implementation for which results will not be available by the time of draft paper submission, for studies that are as yet inconclusive, and for studies at an early to intermediate state for which authors are seeking feedback from the community.

The NSF Grantees Poster Session is an invitation-only session for authors with NSF-sponsored projects related to engineering education. ASEE is a publish-to-present conference, so authors will be required to submit a paper to participate in the poster session. This year the session will only accept brief papers (2-5 pages, including references).

NEW FOR 2025:

Titles must include the NSF funding program (e.g., IUSE, RIEF). The paper and poster must also acknowledge the project funding.
This session will only accept short papers (2-5 pages, including references) summarizing the project activities and results. PIs with more extensive results are encouraged to submit a full-length paper through one of the ASEE divisions and a short summary for this poster session, while ensuring sufficient differentiation between the submissions to comply with ASEE’s policy on duplicate publication (given in Author’s Kit).

Submission Schedule:

Abstracts Submission Deadline: Tuesday, October 01, 2024
Draft Paper Submission Deadline: Wednesday, January 15, 2025
Revised Paper Submission Deadline (for papers requiring revisions): Friday, February 21, 2025
Finalized Paper Submission & Author Registration Deadline: Thursday, May 01, 2025

To submit an abstract and paper, you will need to use your ASEE login or create a new account. ASEE membership is not required. Conference details, including the full call for papers, Authors Kit, and poster formatting guidelines, are available at: https://www.asee.org/events/Conferences-and-Meetings/2025-Annual-Conference

ABSTRACT SUBMISSION
ASEE recommends abstracts to be between 250 and 500 words. The following criteria are used to review abstracts:

1. Clearly motivates the work based on needs and referencing relevant literature

2. Clearly describes the project and key findings

3. Identifies the NSF program that funded the work

During the abstract submission process, it is VERY IMPORTANT that you select the NSF Grantees’ Poster Session as the “Division” to which you submit.

PAPER SUBMISSION
All posters must submit a paper to be accepted for the poster session. However, this session only accepts extended abstracts summarizing a project (2-5 pages including references). Papers are reviewed blind, so identifying information should be removed from draft papers, The papers will be reviewed based on the following criteria:

1. Motivates the work based on needs and referencing relevant literature

2. Describes the project, methodology, and results

3. The paper is clear, concise, and consistent. It is easily understandable and a pleasure to read. The writing is near perfect, with few grammatical or spelling errors.

4. Identifies NSF program and award number and follows the required submission format provided by ASEE in the Author’s Kit.

After review, draft papers will be accepted, require revisions, or rejected from the conference. Papers are most often rejected or require revisions due to lack of relevance to the session or not including required information or following the required format.

A few other items of note:

In order to keep the session focused on results rather than plans, only projects with a start date at least a year before the conference are receiving invitations to submit. If your project will not have significant results by the time of the conference, please wait until next year. If you have presented at this session in the past, you are encouraged to submit an abstract again only if it is a significant update on your previous work.
If you have more than one qualifying award, you may submit more than one abstract as long as you are prepared to display and cover more than one poster board.
Everyone who submits an abstract will be asked to review a few abstracts. You will not have to review the associated papers. Please help make this session run smoothly by accepting the invitation to review.
Abstracts for this conference are generally 250-500 words, broken into 2 to 4 paragraphs. As much as possible, do not include identifying information in the abstract for the sake of having a blind review process. Please do mention the NSF division through which your project is funded.

This session has long been a high visibility opportunity for dissemination of activities and results related to engineering education. We hope you will ensure its continued success with your participation.

Paper submission is a three-step process: (1) submission of an abstract, (2) submission of a draft of the entire paper, and (3) submission of the final paper. All abstracts must be submitted through the NEMO abstract & paper submission portal. Please check the ASEE website for final versions of the 2025 paper Author’s Kit, Publish-to-Present information, paper, and poster guidelines, and deadlines. Abstracts shall be 250–500 words in length and provide a clear statement of the paper’s objective, relevance to two-year colleges, assessment methods, and results. Abstracts will each receive at least one anonymous peer review. Authors of accepted abstracts will prepare a draft of the entire paper for anonymous peer review; at least three reviewers will review the draft. Be sure to remove identifying information such as author name(s) and/or institutions from all abstract and draft submissions. To aid both the reviewers and the readers, papers in the TYCD should be limited to 15 pages, including references. The division strongly encourages authors to conduct meaningful assessments of outcomes and report on the results of this assessment. Papers that provide little or no assessment of the activities described should be marked as “Work in Progress” in NEMO upon submission. As there is a limited number of technical sessions in the TYCD, Work in Progress papers, or multiple papers by the same author(s), or papers that do not suit the content of a technical session, may be assigned to the conference poster session. Draft papers should be well-developed so that the reviewer has a sufficient understanding of the paper’s goals and content, as well as any research questions, data, etc., that may appear in the final paper. Reviewers may return drafts for revision if, among other issues, the narrative or other content needs clarification, the draft has substantial grammatical and/or spelling errors obscure the main message (the reviewer will not correct the errors), the draft lacks references, etc. Reviewers may also reject the draft for severe instances of the aforementioned reasons or if the paper focus is not appropriate for the TYCD conference program. As necessary, authors should respond to all comments provided by each reviewer as part of the revision process. Upon acceptance of the draft, the final paper must be submitted by the published deadline in order to be included in the conference program.

Acceptance of both the abstract and the final full manuscript is required for presentation in TYCD sessions and inclusion in the conference proceedings (publish to present). Papers accepted for publication must be presented by at least one registered conference participant in a designated technical session, or at a poster session held in the Exhibit Hall, as designated at the time of final submission. For further information, prospective authors and presenters may contact the TYCD Program Chair: Eric Davishahl ASEE 2025 Two-Year College Program Chair edavishahl@whatcom.edu.
