Although the engineering curriculum in most cases has been updated andexpanded to incorporate group work and project-based learning, most of the mathematicaloriented courses are still taught in a passive manner.Our goal is to enhance students’ critical thinking by integrating case studies to our introductorycourse in probability and statistics. This is typically a sophomore-level core course in theindustrial engineering curriculum. Students who complete this course, should be able tounderstand the role of uncertainty in engineering models, apply critical probability concepts

Details documenting the evolution of arepresentative inventory item will be highlighted in this paper.IntroductionIn the early days of engineering education, students completed one or two years ofdrafting training as part of their curriculum. At the time, this made sense because it wasengineers who created the drawings and other documentation needed to construct ormanufacture their designs. Gradually, drafting became the job of technicians asengineers focused on the more complicated aspects of engineering analysis; however,engineers remained principally involved in the creation of the design

Only the Challenge attribute displayed divergent improvements.Introduction Leadership traits are not always emphasized in the engineering curriculum of highereducation institutions. Once in college, if a student starts an engineering program, leadershipopportunities are typically only available through extracurricular activities or internships1. This islargely because traditional engineering programs are not able to accommodate specific coursesthat foster leadership traits in their degree plan. This lack of curriculum integration can often beattributed to the topic’s perceived complexity and the growth in the number of required corecourses that subsequently

While some students can recognize the underlying structure and themathematical construction, others have trouble identifying patterns or parallel thought structures,which makes it difficult for them to generalize the concept to a range of problem types.
