discussion in this paper, the courses have been divided by the term in theseries. The “first-term” course is not necessarily offered in the fall term of the first year of astudent’s college career– this is merely the first term of the transport series, if there is one. Analternative arrangement would be to organize the courses by primary topic (fluid mechanics, heattransfer, mass transfer, binary combinations, and ternary combinations) no matter what term, andthis was used a secondary organizing principle within the term structure.Results and Discussion OverviewThe 94 courses are primarily junior-year courses, with 22% in the sophomore year, 71% junioryear, and 7% senior year. This agrees well with the most recent curriculum survey in theliterature

parallel, Industry 4.0 (I.D. 4.0) is correspondingly transforming to I.D. 5.0, and HEIs need to be mindful andaccordingly produce university graduates who are perceived as valuable and can secure lucrative career prospects, inan ever-evolving global landscape. This pivotal work lays out a comprehensive, elaborate procedural foundation tomap E.D. 4.0 to E.D. 5.0 (thereby also catalyzing the E.D. 5.0 to I.D. 5.0 transformation) devoid of any a prioriassumptions, demonstrating the universal, reproducible nature of our work.KeywordsEducation 4.0 (E.D. 4.0), Education 5.0 (E.D. 5.0), Industry 4.0 (I.D. 4.0), Industry 5.0 (I.D. 5.0), Society 5.0,Pedagogy, Bibliometric Analysis, Curriculum Design, Higher Education Institutes (HEIs).IntroductionThe world

gapbetween the professional skills of recent engineering graduates and the expectations ofemployers [8, 9]. These studies suggest that more traditional coursework and individualassignments do not adequately address some of the most important skills for practicingengineers. These project assignments are designed to offer additional opportunities for studentsto develop teamwork skills, positioning them for success both in their capstone design coursesand in their professional careers after graduation.Methods: Curriculum-Wide Chemical Process ProjectThe Haber-Bosch process for ammonia synthesis was implemented in the courses indicated inbold in Table 1.
