reports simply called for even more modernengineers.Figure 1: A visual depiction of new competencies needed by engineers upon review of theGrinter Report (1995) and the Vision of the Engineer of 2020 Reports (2004 and 2005).Even from an accreditation perspective, in 1997, ABET released Engineering Criteria 2000which made it clear that engineering education needed to include these global, societal,economic, and environmental mindsets in future engineers [4]. The incorporation of what arecommonly termed “soft skills” in engineering curriculum, including teamwork, communication,ethics, and social consciousness, were soon considered a necessity. Engineering coursework hadalready garnered a reputation as being content-heavy, so innovative and unique

complex systems has the potential to originate a transdisciplinarytheory and to merge chemistry with other disciplines. In addition, Gentili concluded thatinterdisciplinary courses on complex systems can help new generations facing 21st centurychallenges to mold interdisciplinary mindsets with enhanced aptitudes to observe, analyze, judgeand summarize.The importance of the aforementioned aptitudes has also been recognized by Matthews et al.,who identified the Paul-Elder model of critical thinking as the ideal pedagogical framework incoursework designed to help graduate students comprehend and act on the literature, as well asdevelop independence of thought, writing skills, and speaking skills. Indeed, these authors havedescribed coursework
