Insofar as mostprograms utilized their capstone design experience to bring their students together, most collegesmix, at best, students from different engineering disciplines rather than drawing on studentsmajoring in business, economics, and other relevant fields such as history, psychology, andanthropology. Some programs also simply choose projects that require multiple disciplinaryperspectives to be applied without requiring the students themselves to come from differentdisciplinary backgrounds. The current guideline says multidisciplinary capstone design. [In] the new guideline, which will probably go live December 1

The concerns about discrepancy between the industry expectations and graduate practice readiness has been alluded to for general engineering [6], studied within software engineering [11], civil engineering [10], and chemical engineering graduates [12]. Literature has shown that there are a number of approaches higher education institutions have taken to improve their graduates’ practice readiness, some of which have enhanced students’ employability through developing generic skills or holistic competencies [4]. Additionally, some institutions have implemented capstone design classes, in an effort to meet ABET criteria on student outcomes and address concerns regarding graduates ill-prepared for industrial

Engineering education has made strides towards integrating social context intoengineering problems. Real-world problems are one way educators have sought to contextualizetechnical problems; however, these problems are usually in capstone or design courses thatstudents take later in their engineering coursework.

ranging from the curriculum requirements of non-engineering courses andengineering capstone projects to the need for engineering instructors to be less negative and moreinformed about the best way to create equitable team projects and articulate their outcomes. Oneof the key recommendations was that students saw the need for and welcomed more suchopportunities to vocalize their concerns and collaborate together in a safe space. It was evidentthat the peer-facilitators were clearly able to convey the goals of the FGs and encourage an open-conversation.3.3 Data Analysis of Open-Ended Questions on Surveys of FG Participants and PeerFacilitators3.3.1 Survey One: Evaluations of the FGs by Student Participants and Peer Facilitators Immediately

In engineering, the previous levels of the taxonomy culminate to the design of a component or system that invokes all previous levels of the taxonomy. Such efforts to create are often stimulated in capstone design classes but can also be invoked in smaller projects in lower- level courses.Promoting the integration, design, and evaluation capabilities of students is
