Originally conceptualized by Rittel & Webber [2], wicked problemsare problems with multiple stakeholders and competing demands, which often contain ethical,social, political, or environmental dimensions. They are challenging to frame and scope, giventhe lack of an obvious “stopping point” when the problem to solution process is complete.Wicked problems reflect pressing societal issues like climate change, transportation and urbandevelopment, healthcare and technological unemployment – problems that frequently engage thetechnical expertise of engineers but require a breadth of disciplinary knowledge outside ofengineering as well, requiring strong collaborative skills and an intellectual

It is recent enough to reflectcurrent conditions, technological advances, and any changes in work-related happiness thatoccurred during or after the COVID-19 pandemic and associated adjustments to work practices.Also, this 10-year period included periods of economic growth and recession, so results shouldnot be skewed by one prevailing macroeconomic condition.B.

Remarkably,engineering education culture has remained somewhat stable in the face of this pressure [30] andthe institutional priority of research over teaching continues to be a challenge [16], [22],nonetheless, program changes are occurring as sustainability issues are addressed at the courseand program level. The workload remains a problem as there is a hesitancy to remove materialfrom courses and programs even as new material is added, nonetheless, the examination ofworkload is occurring [31].
