can optionally enrol in non-engineeringdesign courses from the Communication and Design program like ‘Design, Technology andSociety’ or ‘Systematic Design’. Even though there were plentiful opportunities for studentsto be trained in important tenets of design, some gaps in the ECE students’ design learningwere identified, which presented opportunities for teaching mechanical engineering design. Alisting of these gaps/opportunities is as follows:• ECE students typically encountered design in the context of circuit design or design of electronics systems wherein, unlike for design of mechanical systems, design choices are not visible as tangible artifacts. Rather, they appear as less tangible changes, e.g. differences in circuit

this regard, accreditation standards, educational models,professional associations, industry needs, and globalization have influenced changes inengineering education around the world [2].The goal of training is to equip students to handle new and changing problems, as noted byauthors [3]. Today's engineers must have the skills to develop new technology products andplay a role in starting technology-based companies, which society urgently needs [4. Theprogress of technology and its widespread adoption is dependent on bringing togetherspecialists from various fields to form multidisciplinary teams [5].Given the desired profile of 21st century engineers, it becomes crucial to define a set ofengineering competencies that are comparable with

engineering also has an ability to influence public policy and thepossibilities for how policy is addressed [9]. In the United States, primarily lawyers, publicadministrators, and social scientists set public policies [10]. However, advancements in the fieldthrough technological innovation can open the door to new possibilities in terms of how thepublic uses infrastructure and finding ways to reduce impacts on the environment. Civil engineering-related policies touch on all aspects of society, economy, and theenvironment. Some examples of policy areas that guide infrastructure development includeclimate change, public health, safety, disaster mitigation, licensure, public engagement, and landconservation.
