Both alumni who hadthese experiences and alumni who did not have these experiences were surveyed.This paper provides a brief introduction to the SAE design competitions along with the results ofthe alumni survey.IntroductionStarting in the early 1960s, engineering education shifted away from engineering practice andmore towards engineering science. Declining enrollments and shifting priorities causeduniversities to reduce program length. In order to accomplish this, many programs reducedapplication oriented courses and laboratories.1 This has resulted in a gap between whatuniversities are teaching, and what

However, students from the broader course mentioned in exit interviews thatthe opportunity to work in all areas of civil engineering helped clarify their desired career path.The practicing engineers reinforced this, observing that students without a clear interest area didnot become frustrated working in a single area and were able to discuss career options with agreater variety of mentors.In summary, the results show that both course models met the goal of preparing students foremployment as civil engineers. Many of the advantages and disadvantages could be addressed byadapting the current course models. For example, in the specialized model, the project

In another study, the author examined a seniorengineering project that utilized the design process and discovered a positive trend of increasedself-efficacy over time [11]. The resulting conclusions noted that there is a time-dependency, thuspossibly an experience-dependence for these advances. This is potentially indicative of self-efficacy gains specifically from successful experiences. The study also denotes self-efficacy andteamwork skills as critical elements of a successful engineering career [11].
