when preparing to meet withemployers. The framework of essential topic areas was then used to find professionaldevelopment resources from institutional career services, literature, and professionaldevelopment articles. Based on the located resources, a grounded theory approach was used todevelop criteria applied to the gathered resources to determine the “best” to share as exemplarswith students as they prepare to meet with employers. For each topic area, a content analysis wasperformed on over 20 institutional resources and over 20 professional development articles andliterature resources. The four criteria that emerged from the data using the grounded theoryapproach were used to split the resources into categories and allow for comparison

understanding of the components, that is, each organization’s culture andpriorities, and how – or if – they align for the success of the collaborative [4]. When cultures andpriorities are taken for granted, ambiguous, or interpreted differently by individuals acrossorganizations, misunderstandings or differential experiences can lead to issues arising in MTS.This is further compounded by individual team member’s experiences within the sameorganization [5].Project BackgroundWe created a multisector MTS to develop and implement a project funded by the NationalScience Foundation’s (NSF’s) Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering andMathematics (S-STEM) program titled “Improving Access to Career and EducationalDevelopment (I-ACED) for Talented, Low

Engineering Education, 2024Examining the Effectiveness of Industrial Partnerships in Capstone Courses: A Qualitative Study through the Lens of Engineering UndergraduatesAbstractRapid changes in the global economy have necessitated the development of a workforceequipped with the skills to adapt and evolve to meet the demands of the modern workplace. Inthis context, universities are tasked with preparing and training students to be job-ready upongraduation. Yet, adequately preparing students for engineering careers beyond graduationremains challenging for all engineering institutions. Problem-solving skills are often regarded asone of the key characteristics of successful engineering graduates. Most engineeringundergraduates are formally exposed to

author was astonished to learn directly from one of the top IE school’spresentations (faculty) at the IISE Annual Conference [21]. To be fair, some faculty might havenever worked in industry or did any consulting work in his/her career, they may not have theproper training or experience to collaborate and work directly with the industry leaders.For the industry sponsors [13,14,15], they usually determine the project charter and the expecteddeliverables at the beginning of the semester. Unfortunately, without much interaction with thefaculty mentor, some sponsors might even treat the student team as an unpaid, remote internor co-op. Often, the sponsors could change the objective and deliverable in the middle of thesemester [19,20]. Hence, it

Programs themselves were also responsiblefor designating a location within the curriculum whereby each item would be assessed as well.Program assessments tend to fall toward the end of a student’s academic career, and many cases,this assessment was handled in one of the capstone courses.Computer ScienceGraduates of the MSOE Computer Science program will have an ability to: 1. Analyze a complex computing problem and apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions. 2. Design, implement, and evaluate a computing-based solution to meet a given set of computing requirements in the context of the program’s discipline. 3
