improvement could become a norm.Professional development education requires a different business model than that of traditionalundergraduate and graduate education. Topics are different, students engage differently in thelearning process, and an understanding of evolving workforce needs by faculty is paramount.Early career faculty members adapting to traditional teaching norms may find professionaldevelopment courses in conflict with the world of tenure-track faculty. Some more experiencedfaculty members, particularly among land-grant institutions whose mission includes service tothe broader community, may be more inclined to espouse the value of continuous learning. Thetransition from theory-based education to professional development is unique

Meagan took the initiative to create this opportunity, unlike her first and thirdinternships at TI which were somewhat preordained as requirements for her university programs.While the role with TI ET explained in this paper materialized somewhat quickly, she had triedthe year before for similar opportunities to no avail. Meagan chose to “own her education” andactively, with persistence and dedication, seek an internship opportunity to gain the experienceshe desired. It is recommended that students pursue opportunities to explore their interests, betterhone their career objectives, and improve professional competence.Network intentionally. One important note, is

based on introducing Scrum into the capstone projects. These are related to thetwo types of actors in these projects; the students and the company representatives. Thecompany representatives express slight changes in mindset after these projects, and express agreater understanding for agile methods in engineering design. The students express a greaterunderstanding and preparedness for a future career in industry.The challenge of today’s capstone projects are not the specific technical competencies butrather organizational issues, as it has been experienced over many years. The projects arecomplex and based on knowledge and competencies in several fields, spread over allmembers of the student team (and faculty). At KTH, most resources in terms

In the author’s program,students self-form teams that are then required to find and partner with one or more professionalswho mentor the team throughout the course. A mentoring agreement is prepared, outlining theexpectations of student team and the mentor, how they will communicate, schedule/timeline(including turnaround time), etc.Students and especially student teams are a regular feature of the IAB meetings, and facilitaterecruiting mentors from the board.

ofreal-world experience as a factor in the ENGINE student experience is not surprising. Similarly,given the generally important role that faculty and teaching assistants (TAs) play in studentlearning as well as the importance of grades to undergraduates, the emergence of instructionalsupport and assessment as factors in the capstone design experience is also justified. Andfinally, the fourth factor, task value serves as an indication of students' motivation to participatein the ENGINE capstone experience. Task value draws from expectancy-value theory and hasbeen demonstrated to be a distinct contributor to academic engagement and effort [26, 27] aswell as educational and career aspirations [28].RQ2: Was there a difference in student perceptions

What’s important? What’s not important?” is needed to helpthe team “refocus” their efforts. He notes that this is a “legitimate concern” becauseotherwise the team will be “scattered and have a lot of different things going on.”Therefore, a crucial aspect of the big picture thinking is “understanding the overarchingproblem that you’re trying to solve, and then being able to draw from all quadrants onwhat could be an opportunity or a solution for that.”Chris describes a decision at one point in his career

This is most evident in training programs for new hires, where they aregiven facts and nominal operational statistics regarding the utility. Tacit knowledge is gainedthrough personal experience and is not readily articulated or codified as it more closelyresembles intuition [7]. It originates from Polanyi [8], where he describes it as how a personknows more than they can tell.

DeAgostino, Trine University, Innovation One After graduating from Michigan Technological University with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering in 1984, Thomas H. DeAgostino began his career as an automotive product engineer working at Ford Motor Com- pany’s Heavy Truck Division. He held various product engineering positions before settling on structural and finite element analysis as his engineering passion. In 1988, he transferred to Ford’s Engine Engi- neering Division performing finite element analysis on various engine
