technical aspects of an engineering career and foster a broadersense of life-long learning.Other important aspects of professional practice that support design include budgeting, teaming,diversity & inclusion, ethics, and project impacts. These are described below.Budgeting Money is a key aspect of a design. Funding for capstone projects is an area of significantvariation among capstone courses nationally [7]. In our program, a two-phased fundingapproach is used, which augments their communication and persuasive skills. Each team isallocated a baseline funding amount. They are informed that they will have an opportunity to“pitch their project to interested investors” for additional funding. These investors are, in fact,the university’s

other engineering education institutions: at heart, the project aims to helpstudents better understand, and hence be better prepared for, their post-graduation futures. Lackof student preparation in all dimensions needed to succeed in the engineering environment–a“misalignment” between engineering education and practice has long been noted, and manyengineering graduates still endure a challenging transition to the workforce [1], [2]. To addressthis need, engineering educators have incorporated project-based learning in the curriculum [3],[4], [5], including capstones [6] and design projects [7]. [7] proposes more broadly that“curriculum developers and instructors should employ an integrative approach where studentscan connect their use of
