engineering degrees should be interdisciplinary andmultidisciplinary. Skills related to new technologies, digitalization, and soft skills areessential. Engineering has been stereotyped as weak in soft skills (interpersonal skills,communication), so there should be a change in the tunnel mind of "what I do" tounderstanding what others do and how they relate.Therefore, everyone must understand and participate in how things and technology areevolving in the upcoming workforce. Work in teams and engage with colleagues in thetransition. Still should be resolved challenges among academia, industry, government, andaccreditation bodies. For example, there are ideas that industry and academia are far awayand disconnected when both spaces allow for new

of Learning ObjectivesThe standard curriculum in research-intensive engineering institutions mostly has one coreengineering communication course. Is this efficient in educating students with good oral, visual,and written communication skills needed to interface and thrive with global stakeholders in thegovernment, private and public sectors? Employing an instructional scaffolding strategy forlearning communication skills across engineering curricula with well-crafted activities andassignments offer a promising means of reinforcing this essential competency within thediscipline.The communication skills requirement is consistent with the Accreditation Board for Engineeringand Technology (ABET) student outcomes three (SO#3), which states that

]. TheAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) and other agencies have providedguidelines for educational institutions [8], through accreditation processes, to provide studentswith the professional and technical skills they need, but programs then need to have an explicitplan for implementation [9].This project was developed to supplement already existing university and DIB efforts to producestudents with robust and specialized knowledge to work in the microelectronics industry. Thiscertification program was developed using prior examples, such as the Six Sigma manufacturingquality certification, a multi-disciplinary certification that is accepted by a variety of fields andcompanies [10].

The authorsobserved that most graduate students are not well-equipped in writing skills to produce effectivescholarly writing even if they might have had technical writing experience in their undergraduatecurriculum, and recommended that faculty members or mentors provide guidance and feedbackin scholarly writing. Students should also be provided with appropriate style manuals, includingthose for proper citation, to either targeted journals or other expected writing products [7]. Morerecently, Daignault and Morse introduced another “Writing in the Discipline” program in thegraduate students’ particular STEM program to assist them with their dissertation writing [8].This WRITE-D program allowed students to

for an aging cohort of technically skilled workers and engineers” [28]. Newemployees have less knowledge and experience, because “employers are forced to look outsidetraditional boundaries” [21]. New employees have more accidents, likely due to having lessknowledge and experience [29]. Rapidly changing technologies mean more training than ever isneeded to ensure employees are qualified and competent to safely and effectively do their jobs.This author has some personal experience with some of these challenges in a previous roleproviding continuing professional development for operators at refineries.
