of collaborative design and construction experiences [18]. Theseprevious initiatives have identified benefits to the collaborative approach related to relevance ofprofession, increased project success, improved communication, and better awareness of theAEC disciplines.Despite the benefits, attempts to implement and maintain cross-disciplinary collaborationoftentimes falls short due to barriers related to communication, cultural divide, work ethic,course structure, and differing academic motivations [6, 10-12, 14-17]. Studies have indicatedlonger rather than shorter learning experiences are necessary to achieve the intended success ofcross-disciplinary approaches [12, 19]. Implementing such invasive approaches may not be anoption for many

critically examine social issues and situate students within a community setting. CEL also enhances the engagement with a community to address and embodies ethical and effective service principles, which result in producing reciprocal benefits for students, faculty, and community partners. Thus, CEL is commonly connected to innovation, learning, and partnership and all these together make a better life. Through mutually beneficial partnerships within the community, students cultivate their identity as lifelong learners and active citizens. CEL promotes a culture of active and engaged learners by integrating opportunities for students to apply construction theories and knowledge through real-world experiences

during their undergraduate degree,it might be easy to assume they would not be fit to enter into the construction management field.Employers do not typically require high levels of job understanding when hiring students out ofcollege. They look for work ethic and a foundation of basic skills required to carry out entry-level duties that fit within the bounds of their employment. College students, upon leaving theiruniversity, are not immediately ready to perform every aspect of their job. They need trainingand time to develop skills. Finance students might not be able to act as a field engineer, but theirskills with money management, forecasting, and analytics make them extremely valuable office-level engineers. Finance majors are capable of a

The author underestimated thecomplexity of the property management structure and the rigorous review process associatedwith the process. This delay affected the construction schedule, and the project needed to bebuilt elsewhere with site access.Before the construction, the author applied to the Institutional Review Board (IRB), whichfacilitates the ethical conduct of research and oversees research involving human subjects. TheIRB commented that the involvement of students with construction tools and the risk associatedwith such activities during the construction process would jeopardize the safety of the students.The board required

Professional identity development (PID) in students is adynamic process as a novice student compares new inputs from training and professionalassociations with previous views; and upon, various levels of internalizations, the professionalidentity may be accepted or rejected [7][8]). PID in students involve students’ beliefs of theirown performance / competence, interests in the profession, and feelings of recognition bysignificant others. It is the
