IntroductionThe transition to first-year at a post-secondary institution can be challenging for students, andcan negatively impact wellbeing [1]. In addition to changes in social environment, livingarrangements, and other personal factors, there are numerous academic changes students mustnegotiate. These include increases in class sizes, changes in instructional methods andassessment, and shifts in student-teacher and student-student relationships. Significantly, post-secondary education also involves a much higher degree of self-responsibility and independencein learning (and personal activities) than most students have previously experienced

To prepare graduates for engineeringprofessions, the University of Michigan-Flint developed a professional skills workshop forengineering students.

IntroductionWhile engineering graduates are well versed in the technical aspects of the profession, it is likelythat many graduates do not possess sufficient skills to understand the socio-economic context oftheir work and to engage other stakeholders in addressing engineering challenges in the 21stcentury effectively. To remain a world economic leader, the U.S. must realize growth in theengineering workforce, and perhaps more importantly, produce engineers who are morecompetent in their problem-solving approaches. However, addressing only the matter of quantitywill not attend to the increasing complexity of 21st-century engineering challenges. Engineershave been deficient in skill

In evaluating our courses, along with courses offered by other departments, werealized that they tend to focus on the discipline related to the department providing the courseand that the multidisciplinary aspect of the energy industry is often lost.
