This underscored the need for careful planning and a proactiveapproach to material sourcing from the early stages of the project.Lesson 5: The Struggles of Maintaining a BudgetOne of the most challenging aspects of the project was keeping the budget within theinitial estimates after the material choices were made.

This course complements the broader theme of embedding Systems Thinkinginto engineering education by preparing students to navigate complex, interdis-ciplinary problems. It reinforces the ideas from the prior sections by providingpractical, hands-on experiences where students collaborate to develop systemmaps that emphasize problem definition over solution development. This alignswith the critical need outlined earlier: to equip engineers with the ability toincorporate socio-technical and environmental

In addition to undergraduate research, engineering students seek out opportunities forprofessional growth like senior design, and recent literature indicates that these design teamsgenerally prepare them to begin their first year of work [18]. Students found that activities likeparticipating in team meetings, project planning, and generation or refining of concepts ondesign teams were the activities that carried over into the workplace. An analysis of engineeringjob descriptions revealed that companies most frequently seek out students who are capable ofproblem solving, another skill reinforced by senior design [19].
