For the United States to maintain its innovation edge and ensure it canattract high technology jobs, educators must make sure engineering graduates are both highlytechnical and have the professional skills needed to compete in a modern global economy andglobal workforce.Other universities across the country have also recognized the importance of developing andassessing the professional skills modern graduates’ need to be successful. For example, Beard,Schwieger, and Surendran, from Southeast Missouri State University, discuss the use of exitexams, exit interviews, class projects, portfolios, and surveys to develop and assess not onlystudents’ technical skills, but also their professional skills [2].

Over the course of 8 days, students learn about solar energy, learn how to operate a solar thermalwater heater, and then work in teams to design, build and test their own thermal panels. This lesson alsoincludes an introductory engineering design lesson for students and teachers who are not yet familiar with theengineering design process.
