-35.Limitations and Future WorkThe study described above was conducted by individuals with primary ties to industry, ratherthan a background or degree in engineering education; therefore, unique limitations and biasesmay exist within the data sets that are less common in studies conducted by typical engineeringeducators. Major ones are described below.The survey was designed with the engineering field, particularly that of industry, in mind asstudies show that 75% of engineers work in industry or government in 2018 [21]. However, non-engineers, those who have been disengaged from the engineering field for some time, or thosewho work distantly with engineers, may have taken the survey and found the questions to bemisleading or confusing.
