Results suggest that the most importantskills are learning independently, working in teams, written and oral communication, solvingproblems, and working independently. All respondents rated these as essential, with over 50%indicating that an expert skill level is needed as seen in Table 2. These findings are similar toSekhon’s survey of Ph.D.s working in industry with mathematically-intensive disciplinesincluding engineering13.

Manufacturing Systems Engineering program at the University of St. Thomas. We use results of the leadership courses to demonstrate compliance with several of the program outcomes. The EAC of ABET requires that engineering programs must demonstrate the fulfillment of a set of criteria. One of those criteria, Criterion 3 Program Outcomes, requires that engineering programs must demonstrate that their students attain eleven outcomes, often referred to as „a-k‟. The six specific outcomes that the leadership courses address are: d) an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility g) an ability to communicate effectively h) the broad education necessary to

Their sample size consisted of 19 responses [10].The study by Male et al.

Furthermore, as system and productintegration extended beyond single engineering disciplines the membership of the advisoryboard had to be similarly extended. A topical and relevant example of this is the blurring ofboundaries between Computer Science and Electronic Engineering in the emergent marketfor the Internet of Things [5]; the new products consisting of a fusion of technologies fromboth disciplines.
