solvecomplex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, andmathematics.” 1 It goes on to say that a “complex” engineering problem must meet one or morecriteria such as having multiple solutions, no obvious or unique solution, include many subproblems, involve multiple disciplines etc. When designing assessments that accurately portray astudent’s ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems, it is critical thatinstructors keep in mind the definition of complex engineering problems. As students are stillgaining knowledge skills and cognition skills in earlier courses, it can be difficult to assess truecomplex engineering problems in lower-level engineering courses 2 .

Hence, we acknowledge that to infuse an ambitious array of knowledge and skillsrelated to sustainability and social justice as well as habits of mind like emotional intelligence,critical thinking, universal design, and cultural humility into the curriculum could seem naïve oreven harmful.However, when we consider the evolution of engineering education over the long and the shortterm, we find that what is most critical for educators to impart has always shifted with thedevelopment of technology and its scientific and mathematical toolboxes.

Results of exposure and motivation levels across engineering majors.DiscussionThe findings of the present study are in line with initial expectations, highlighting bothopportunities for improvement in engineering education and the need to foster awareness andunderstanding of semiconductor-related topics among students. The data reveal that while morethan 66% of respondents have heard about semiconductors, only 9.41% have taken at least oneuniversity class on the subject, and 18.82% have participated in activities related tosemiconductors. This result suggests a potential area for curriculum enhancement in engineeringeducation. Keeping in mind that 72% of students taking the class are juniors and senior

show students what thevarious facets of electrical engineering are.In Fig 6(b), it can be seen that students’ perception of the major increased after learning whatelectrical engineering is all about. This may be due to a misunderstanding of what electricalengineering is by those who are not familiar with it. Once students understand what can be doneusing electrical engineering, the interest in the major naturally increases.However, it should be noted that the movements in Fig 6 are very small. This is not surprising as96.6% of students went into the course with a declared major. It would be unreasonable to expectone course to change students’ minds significantly.3.1.3 Learning throughout the courseIn the second and third surveys, students

. Due toCOVID and the heavier workload it entails, this option was only taken by a very smallpercentage of the class. In general, we found that if an extended learning opportunity such as thehonors section required a lot of time, it was to be expected that a small number of students wouldchoose this path, due to the already rigorous engineering curriculum. The second optional pathwas an extra credit learning module and quiz on multitasking, which all students in the classwere encouraged to complete. When creating this optional module, we were mindful of allstudents in the course, especially those who are already struggling, by choosing a gradingscheme carefully and emphasizing that the module was an extended learning opportunity, not

met. The assessment of the identified ABET performance indicators at the end of the semester were above the acceptable threshold and comparable with the in-person course. This experience demonstrates that through innovation, some of the engineering laboratory courses can be taught remotely without sacrificing any experiments.1. Introduction One of the most meaningful measures of an engineering program is for its graduates to be able to perform from the first day on the job. It is only through a fine interplay of the theory and practice that such an outcome can be achieved. Hence, it is imperative that when developing courses and curricula, we keep a theory to practice outcome in mind. What distinguishes the new graduates in
