Noted author andproduct designer Robert G. Cooper sums up the dilemma well, stating that “most companies lackmuch in the way of effective product innovation and technology strategy, and worse yet, seem ata loss for developing such a strategy.”14 Obviously, universities are, at least in part, as much responsible for this problem as theyare for the solution. The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology recognizes thisshortcoming in engineering programs, and has clearly outlined the technical and non-technicalskills necessary for success in an increasingly complex and interdisciplinary workplaceenvironment.15 Teaching cognitive processing skills, communication and team working skills,ethics, global awareness, and environmental

Using the engineering design cycle, students are walked througheach phase of the cycle using real world examples. Two faculty members introduced asustainability theme into the existing project-based course to around 180 students (approximatelyone third of the incoming freshman). With the university’s mission to become a more sustainablyaware campus, this piloted theme synchronized well with long term goals. Thematicsustainability lessons that focused on water, materials, and alternative energy technologies wereintroduced throughout the course alongside traditional methods used to teach the engineeringdesign cycle and culminated with a

Although general safety guidelines are consistent across mostsituations and environments, the technical skills associated with laboratory specific tools are not.Even when technical based videos were consulted, the tools used would have different featuresand details than those found in the design laboratories. According to Heath7, the fact that thetools were different would decrease the relevance to the students, and therefore the effectivenessof the learning process.To address the lack of appropriate media content for the training process, a tool training videowas developed and produced in the design laboratories.

influences and processes such as working with a group ofindividuals. All of these factors, plus many more, are what drive the demands of technology and productinnovation today. These demands have evolved the current practice of engineering in such a way thatthere now exists disconnect between engineering education and engineering practice. This disconnect hasresulted in today’s engineering students lacking the key skills needed to be successful engineers [4] andresulted in many prominent calls to reduce the distance between engineering education and engineeringpractice. The most notable call is perhaps from the National Academy of Engineering’s Engineer of 2020project [5], [6] which calls for the inclusion of interdisciplinary knowledge and teamwork
