Having a changing environment, withvarious globalization scenarios playing out, with free trade and multilateral social andeconomic agreements, the curriculum of engineering has undergone significant changes. Thisevolution has led to the concept of Global Engineering, which was first introduced in theIndustrial Engineering program at Northern Illinois University, which emphasizes thedevelopment of globally-focused engineering education [8].Developing a global engineering practice entails addressing issues from a much widerperspective. In order to achieve this, it becomes crucial to integrate and

In 1989, an armed man opened fire in an engineering classroom atMontreal’s École Polytechnique School, killing only the women students. In total 14 womenwere murdered [17].

through Transdisciplinary CourseworkAbstractIn the face of today's complex challenges, it is clear that the convergence of academic disciplinesin the support of creating innovative solutions is more important than ever. To enable thisconvergence, universities can adopt transdisciplinary learning experiences that promote theintegration of different academic fields. One common method for integration is the application ofdesign thinking methods and the development of cross-cutting innovation-focused skills. TheMission, Meaning, Making (M3) model is an example of a transdisciplinary educational modelthat aims to transform traditional undergraduate learning experiences by combining the strengthsof different academic units.

Our use of the verbiage “Engineering Mindset” in the assignment prompt alsopresents a limitation in that it differs from the verbiage that is explicitly used in KEEN’s EMLframework, thus limiting this work’s direct integration with other EM concept map studies in theliterature.Assessing EM depends on more facets than those of just the classroom. Students who attend ouruniversity have diverse backgrounds, coming from different races, genders, socioeconomicbackgrounds, and different levels of high school preparation.
