to get ideas for new products). Studentswere asked “How confident are you in your ability to do each of the following at this time?” andranked their answers on a five point Likert scale from “not confident” to “extremely confident”(on a scale from 0 to 4). The scale was presented and discussed as ISE.6 construct in a recenttechnical report on the EMS (Gilmartin, S., et al, 2017). The construct shows a Cronbach’s alphaof 0.79, and the score for each students’ innovation self-efficacy is calculated by taking theaverage of these six items.3.3.2 Venturing self-efficacyThe item is adapted from Lucas et al.’s (2009) Venturing Self-Efficacy scale.

The conceptbehind the Epilogue is to simply present your project and allow your customer(s) to experience itand evaluate how well you met the original needs, requirements, and constraints. While civilengineering projects rarely provide an opportunity to make changes after the fact, the lessonslearned in this stage could be applied to future projects. Prosperi presents various
