The FE exam went through a major overhaul in2014, including a reduction in the number of test questions and the addition of a requirement thateach examinee choose a test in one of seven engineering disciplines: chemical, civil, electricaland computer, environmental, industrial and systems, mechanical, or other disciplines [11, 12].There are still some subject areas that are common to all seven of the FE disciplines:mathematics, probability and statistics, ethics and professional practice, and engineeringeconomics [9].

Thispaper discusses capstone design project objectives, student learning activities, educationaloutcome assessment mapping, faculty reflections and lessons learned.IntroductionIn professional practice, engineers build successful careers out of solving open-ended problems[1]. However, the well-structured and constrained problems that engineering students tend tosolve at the early level coursework, do little to prepare them for the complexity of ambiguousand unstructured real-world problems [1

The goal of these cards was tocover a wide variety of entrepreneurial mindset outcomes without relying on a single project.The four topics selected were engineering economics, customer awareness and stakeholders,engineering ethics, and value propositions and supporting data. Two of the four lessons weretaught as a supplement to the existing class project, but could be used either with any classproject or as stand-alone modules in classes without a project.

Among them, the ethical culture of Confucianism constitutes the core oftraditional culture and is an important pillar of life and spiritual order. For example,Confucianism advocates “exercising benevolence”. The cultural intension of this kind ofbenevolence is manifested in the spirit of practicing, caring about society, and activelyjoining the society (ru shi). The Taoist thought advocates “inaction” or “do-nothingness” (wuwei) to express the heart of salvation. Among them, the dialectic thought that “being andnot-being grow out of one another” (you wu xiang sheng) in Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching hasimportant implications for entrepreneurial activities, such as starting a business from nothing

As seniors, students apply their efforts to courses in their field of study and explore employment opportunities; thus, there is concern that integration of engineering ethics into student psyches is not occurring effectively.“The committee came forward in March 2017 with recommendations, which were immediatelyfast-tracked to support a fall 2018 rollout: • The first semester
