Less than 2% of participants felt that it was essential to have anexpert skill level in marketing. Over 20% of participants responded that marketingproducts/processes was not an essential skill for Ph.D.s in industry. Managing others,identifying customer needs and writing peer reviewed papers had over 10% of participantsindicating it was not an essential skill.Participants were solicited for additional essential skills to

; andthat locating and choosing appropriate artifacts produces anxiety for most students. Studentswere able to overcome these challenges and found both the process of constructing the portfolioand having the portfolio to be valuable. The studio setting provided a number of opportunitiesand benefits that other reporting requirements do not, including: 1) meeting other participants inthe program and sharing reflections with their peers; 2) addressing how the experience preparedthem for future practice with employers as the intended audience; and 3) articulating theirunderstanding of what engineers do, and what contributes to effective practice.Our pilot Co-op project suggested that writing the final experience report involves an unknownaudience.

The goal of this program is tograduate engineering students with knowledge, experiences and mindsets that prepare them tofunction in the rapidly changing global engineering world of the 2000s. The development andcomponents of this program, other than the industry engagement described herein, have beenpreviously reported1,2. A brief summary and update is included to provide context for the rest ofthis paper.The engineering education literature has provided many summaries of living-learning programsin recent years 3-6. Common features of these programs typically include scheduling certainclasses in common, tutoring, peer mentoring

the day. Education was not necessary to earn a living, it was merely a luxury for the elites and the rich. Education 2.0 originated from the need to read and write and was developed in the model of Industry 2.0, with emphasis on repeatability, uniformity, efficiency, and mass production. Industry needed lots of people to do same type of tasks and the education paradigm evolved to meet that need. Engineering education, which modeled the industrial set-up most closely followed a highly linear path with curriculum being divided into a set of courses with a distinct prerequisite structure where students would have to pass one class to move onto the next. This arrangement, mirrored the assembly line and turned out to be the most efficient

and bored in the classroom where the entire learning mode is passive listening. They learn by doing or through tactile activities. An overwhelming majority of our learning systems are set up to be used as a passive learning resource. This effectively excludes students who are not good at working in that mode.Inclusive systems seek to remove barriers and provide the means for educating ALLstudents with high quality instruction, interventions, and support such that all studentshave the opportunity to be successful. Inclusive schools have a collaborative andrespectful culture where all students are presumed to be competent. They encourageand develop positive social relationships between peers and recognize all students as

An agreement was made in to assign anIUPUI undergraduate student team to develop a system that would significantly reduce thenumber of missing flavor packets in NK Hurst soup mix packages.Consumer ComplaintsDirect consumer complaints of product defects are an incomplete indicator of overall quality.According to research [2] performed by the Technical Assistance Research Program (TARP) atHarvard University, only 3% of customers complained directly to manufacturers regardingdefective low-cost products. TARP’s studies found that for packaged goods similar to the beansoup mixes made by Hurst, only one person in fifty writes a letter to the manufacturer when

The practicing professional joins the faculty member in the classroom orremotely via electronic communication on a regular basis, interacts directly with the students,and provides feedback on a sample of the student work. Targeted courses are those tied closelyto professional practice. In these courses, students produce tangible representations of authenticpractice, which serve to mediate the interaction between students, the teacher, and the practicingprofessional.Instantiating the modelI have instantiated Industry Fellows three times with three different industry fellows in
