absolutely no experience “under their belt,” are assigned to teachpractice related courses. Often, teaching design-oriented and/ or field-related subjects do require“first-hand” knowledge that instructors could only get by having taken part, or been involved inreal engineering problems. Relying mainly on textbooks and/ or reference material, as the onlysource to teach from, is regarded by many, as an oversimplification or a deviation from reality.This paper sheds light on the pros and cons of opening-up to off-campus practitioners, andargues for engaging properly selected adjunct faculty in the teaching-learning process, inpartnership with “full-time” regular faculty members. The impetus here is three fold. First, thegeneral belief that well

In order to limit the space of exploration in the varied engineering curricula,the data analysis skills described by Criterion 3.b were tied to either 1) Laboratory courses or 2)Statistics courses.

explanations [9]. However, thefield of engineering has not yet established a clear idea of what “disciplinary engagement”means.Engineering at its core is about creating solutions to problems using mathematics, science, andcreativity through a design process. The engineering curriculum reflects this by containingdifferent types of courses that teach the mathematical models of natural phenomena (i.e.engineering science courses, or technical core courses), laboratory and experimental techniquesand processes (i.e. lab courses), and fundamentals of engineering design (i.e. design courses).These courses all ask students to engage disciplinarily in different ways, all in support of theoverall practice of engineering to create new solutions.

Engineering course curricula have increasingly incorporatedmodern technology that has made a positive impact by creating more hands on activities andexperiments. Specialized laboratory equipment and setups are being replaced with off the shelfdevices and components. Customized printed circuit boards can be purchased cheaply andfabricated in days instead of weeks. Creating these hands on activities has many timescorresponded with an increased expense that is passed on to the students in the form of a
