Although other researchers3 reported employersatisfaction with employee skills, it is likely that there is still room to improve upon the skillsstudents acquire in their higher education programs

These skills can varyfrom proper interviewing skills, work life balance, contract negotiations, changing careerpaths, etc.The idea of SWID came about after a student attended a guest lecture, wherein a maleexecutive shared his career path.

A Transdisciplinary Approach for Developing Effective Communication Skills in a First Year STEM SeminarAbstractMany STEM graduates leave school academically prepared in their fields however business leaders havebeen stating that they often lack the more intangible qualities such as teamwork, critical thinking,communication skills, and the ability to manage interpersonal relations. These are often referred to as”soft skills”, yet they are tightly coupled with professional performance. Furthermore, they are allconnected to basic communication skills, commonly referred to as oral and written communication, andtheir close counterparts, listening and reading. Such skills are not only add-ons to a STEM job, they canmake the

, many STEM students see writing aslargely unrelated to their career goals. Many students assume that their “writing career is nowover”5 once they move into courses in their major. Put another way, student perceptions of anengineer’s “community of practice” often do not include writing despite the common presence ofwriting in workplace “communities of practice.” Genre offers a productive way to approach thisdisconnect. Based on the Department of Labor’s definition of workforce readiness skills6, one of themost important “soft skills” is communication. This speaks to the need to resolve the disconnectbetween the perception of writing by students in upper-level undergraduate STEM courses and theskills required by them once they graduate

Engineering inthe New Century11 are now calling for tomorrow’s engineer to have content knowledge and beskilled in areas beyond those traditionally associated with the engineering profession.Furthermore, organizations within the engineering workforce desire a more expansive educationof the engineer. “Evidence from employers confirms that engineers are being asked to makedecisions that require, in addition to technical expertise, a keen understanding of broad, socio-humanistic contexts and considerations”12. Thus, K-12 educators can use the implementation ofengineering instruction to develop what are normally deemed “soft” skills in their students.Ethics, teamwork, and communication are essential for a sufficient K-12 engineering education5

SWID allows students theopportunity to hone those professional soft skills and creates a forum that opens andencourages dialogue between students and industry. Some of the soft skills that studentsdevelop during their project discussions are asking the right questions, asking leadingquestions, interacting with “different” people – people with various skill levels, skillssets, objectives, backgrounds, needs etc., learning

As aresult, integrating academic fields with “service-learning” that emphasizes, “‘technical’ and ‘scientific’ skills such asEngineering…[is] rare”33.

The Accelerate curriculum enhances these possibilitiesby relying on a broad-based philosophy of course integration that obfuscates abiding distinctionsbetween “hard” and “soft” skills, blends liberal and technical subjects, and—perhaps, mostimportantly—combines a range of populations, talents, and experiences to produce the nextgeneration of engineers. At the heart of the program lie six conceptual strands, or “grandthemes.” Developed in the fall semester of 2014 by Accelerate faculty and administrators, thesethemes reflect and inform the overall mission of integration
