Formulating Solutions to CEP: Once a problem is identified, the next stage is to devise a strategy or model for solving it. This involves generating hypotheses, selecting appropriate methodologies, and planning the execution of solutions. Funke [8] highlights the importance of dynamic reasoning in this stage, where multiple variables and constraints must be considered to develop viable solutions. The formulation stage bridges theoretical knowledge and practical application. C. Solving CEP: The final stage

Initially, the plan for the RE program was to adopt the MCDP coursesfrom the ME program, which span over three semesters to give more time for fabrication andassembly of mechanical structures. However, the two targeted professional scenarios of the REprogram were directly aligned with the M-MCDP courses, i.e.: i. Design a robotic system involving the integration of mechanical, electrical and computer components, for a given application context. ii. Manage multidisciplinary teams for robotic projects.Additionally, it was decided that the RE program would be managed at the faculty level,bridging the EECE and ME departments, which facilitated the allocation of resources forestablishing the new
