dog if apicture of a dog is fed into it. With this in mind, AI engineers will work with enormous amountsof data on which they will apply mathematics to develop and implement algorithms byprogramming with computing languages. The results they obtained will be communicated usingvarious graphs, reports, presentations, etc.Industrial-Specific Skills Required for AI professionalsSeveral investigations and surveys have been reported recently on the in-demand requirements tobuild a career in AI [22, 23]. The requirements can be categorized as mathematical background,technical-based domain knowledge, programming skills, and non-technical related soft skills.Because AI professionals develop and apply algorithms and interpret their results based

amount of further technical material we wish we could present to ourstudents. 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. In electrical andcomputer engineering, there is much more technical content that was once taught in four-yearprograms, which we

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
