experiences in the curriculum. Feiseland Rosa, for instance, argued that engineering is fundamentally an applied discipline requiringskills in experimentation, design, and problem-solving, all of which are best cultivated throughwell-designed lab work [12]. Laboratory sessions provide concrete experiences that can enhancestudents’ analytical thinking and bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-worldapplication. Indeed, a strong lab component in undergraduate programs has been correlated withimprovements in students’ hands-on competencies and their ability to apply concepts to solvepractical problems. In the context of an emerging field like QISE, experiential learning isarguably even more critical. Quantum engineering education involves

One of the responses from thestudents was that the program was not viewed as academic in nature [9].While many construction management programs offer great hands-on experience to theirstudents, it is still an academic major with curriculum like all other majors. Students need toview these programs as academic and promote success by encouraging good habits such asstudying, being organized, and taking notes.
