In the U.S., the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)General Criterion 5.d. requires a culminating major engineering design experience that 1)incorporates appropriate engineering standards and multiple constraints, and 2) is based on theknowledge and skills acquired in earlier course work (ABET). Capstone courses and projects arewell-suited to providing such an experience. Consequently, capstones have become a de factorequirement in engineering education [16].In a series of national surveys and international counterparts, the longitudinal state ofengineering capstone design education over the past three decades has been assessed

A stated need of the agencyfunding this effort was to improve the employability of graduating students on “day one,”providing skill training that would allow the new students to contribute meaningfully and quicklyupon hire, minimizing onboarding training needed. As practices and theories used in engineeringand industry change rapidly as new manufacturing technologies develop, micro-credentialpathways are set to emerge as an agile and rapid way to address these skill gaps as they emergefor graduating and mature workers.
