professional skills into capstone courses12. Due to theaforementioned reduction in credit hours and the coincidental expansion of topics to teach, the civilengineering faculty at OIT did not have space in the curriculum to develop new service learning orprofessional skills courses and they desired to have these skills introduced prior to entering thecapstone design experience. As such, the civil engineering faculty at OIT attempted to introduce thebasics of management, business, public policy, and leadership piecemeal throughout the curriculum,especially during a course on project management. However, in two separate assessments,summarized in Table 1, students revealed that they were greatly lacking in the ability to explain basicconcepts of these
