Abstract :
While many intellectually and financially rewarding engineering jobs require just a bachelor´s degree, graduate education is the key to careers in research and university teaching. Many graduate students- perhaps you are one of them-pursue doctoral studies because they are considering academic careers. Some students are passionate about teaching from the beginning, while others want to find out if they enjoy it in order to decide whether to seek work in industry or in academia.
