experiences may be problematic as an abundanceof anecdotal evidence and calls by professional engineering organizations, including ASEE andNAE, suggest that engineers must learn to work effectively with accounting, marketing,communications, and other functional group members within a given organizational structure toattain project success. And while those calls are not new, there are only a handful of documentedundergraduate-level capstone experiences focusing on leadership development that have crossedcollege boundaries in a graded academic course, and thus have a higher level of risk for thestudent versus extra- or co-curricular activities.A survey of engineering alumni in senior management positions identified the ability toeffectively work in

She managed and was a key contributor to a two-year pilot project to introduce Blended Learning into Engineering Capstone De- sign Courses, and is a co-author with John M. Shaw on a number of recent journal, book, and conference contributions on engineering design education.Dr. John M. Shaw John M. Shaw obtained his B.A.Sc. degree in Chemical Engineering and his Ph.D. in Metallurgy and Ma- terial Science at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada, in 1981 and 1985 respectively. In 1985, he joined the Department of Chemical Engineering and Applied Chemistry at the University

the study of the skeletal response to mechanical loading. As a Mechanical Engineer, she worked on facility design projects involving mechanical systems that included heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and energy conservation systems, as well as R&D of air conditioning equipment for Navy ships. Additional research interests have included the investigation of relationships among components of the indoor environment, occupants, and energy usage. Specifically, the effects of the indoor environment on occupant health and well-being and in parallel, how socially-mediated energy-saving strategies can increase awareness of energy use and/or in- crease energy saving behaviors. Dr. Lang’s current research interests
