starting salaries, these rarely come with defined benefit pension plans, but rather rely onemployees to navigate various investment plans for their retirement. At our school, civilengineering students take a senior seminar course that has a collection of topics to prepare themfor successful entry into and growth throughout their professional life. Among the topics in ourinitial offering of this seminar course was one seminar on the basics of financial literacy andmanagement, which proved to be very popular and highly rated as to its perceived usefulness bythe students. As a result of student feedback, the seminar was expanded to two seminar periods.This led the author to ask the questions: (1) is there a need for financial literacy education

Introduction In recent years, the limitations of traditional learning, such as instructor driven lecture style teaching,have been widely recognized, and there has been a growing interest in alternate approaches that em-phasize active engagement and collaboration. Research has shown that incorporating active learningstrategies such as group work, problem-solving, and hands-on projects can lead to improved studentmotivation, engagement, and performance [1]. To benefit from these strategies, it is important for grad-uate students to develop a sense of self-authorship and to take an active role in their own

For the sake of convenience,the majority with engineering backgrounds adopted IT (information technology) vs non-ITpeople.1 At the beginning more than 30 faculty members with diverse engineeringbackgrounds joined the program, while less than 5 members were recruited from humanities,entrepreneurship, social sciences, and arts (HESA). The curricular design principle was based on the integration of subjects, termed asnon-IT subjects, into core engineering subjects. The idea was very much like appropriatingusable/applicable dimensions of humanities as if they would lend imaginative power toengineering capacity. About one third of mandatory courses were composed of non-ITsubjects, whose teaching and learning models were project-based

The survey includesboth Likert scale questions (quantitative) and open-ended questions (qualitative), which areanalyzed using a mixed-method approach. Additionally, the responses from the industryprofessionals are compared with the ones from the students to investigate the differencebetween various target groups.

[2] both discuss how these factors continue to contribute to theunderrepresentation of women and people of color in the STEM industry. This is attributed to the“leaky pipeline” phenomenon where women lose interest in engineering as their careerprogresses due to continuous barriers such discrimination, inequitable resources andopportunities [2]. This further contributes to the loss of interest in STEM as young women andpeople of color achieve new milestones in their careers.

To meet this trend, more andmore new technical positions are created and are ready to be filled. Skilled and well-preparedengineers are highly demanded by such newly emerging positions. Computing programs in USuniversities cannot produce enough qualified graduates to fill these positions. To make theproblem even worse, computer programs suffer high dropout and failure rates, mainly due to thereason that students are unprepared and lose their interest in their entry-level courses[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].
