Classical AI was incompetent to serve the increasingdemand of search, optimization and machine learning in information systems with largebiological and commercial databases and factory automations for steel, aerospace, power, andpharmaceutical industries2. The failure of the traditional AI opened up new avenues for thenon-conventional models in various engineering applications. These new computational toolsgave rise to a new discipline called computational intelligence1.

It is possible that majority, malestudents are referring to training opportunities that they have experienced outside the formalclassroom. Perhaps asking more specific questions related to other team training experienceswould help explain this finding.Although data were available by academic major, the subsets were increasingly small.
