taught in science,technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) programs.In this study, we are interviewing practicing engineers about the tools and techniques they use intheir daily roles in solving complex problems and the extent to which they were taught aboutthese tools and techniques during their college education. Our working definition of complexproblem solving is “[When] solving occurs to overcome barriers desired between a given stateand a goal state, by means of behavioral and/or cognitive, multistep activities” (Jonassen, 2017,p. 28). This paper will describe the complex problems faced by engineers and the tools that areused to solve these complex problems. The common problems will be determined by comparingand contrasting the
