transformation in engineering education is the development of MassiveOpen Online Courses (MOOCs) in the last dozen or more years. Researchers have explored theapplications in engineering [5], the challenges of credentials [6], and the opportunities forincreasing knowledge of entrepreneurship [7]. The challenge of retention in MOOCs has beenexplored by several researchers [8]–[10]. The slow MOOC evolution of teaching in the remotespace has been accelerated by COVID in the last year.An important paradigm shift in higher education was described by Charles Vest as the emergingmeta-university [3]. He describes how technology might change education, allowingcollaboration across different domains. In 2020 this grand experiment accelerated as thepandemic forced
