Manufacturing Systems Engineering program at the University of St. Thomas. We use results of the leadership courses to demonstrate compliance with several of the program outcomes. The EAC of ABET requires that engineering programs must demonstrate the fulfillment of a set of criteria. One of those criteria, Criterion 3 Program Outcomes, requires that engineering programs must demonstrate that their students attain eleven outcomes, often referred to as „a-k‟. The six specific outcomes that the leadership courses address are: d) an ability to function on multidisciplinary teams f) an understanding of professional and ethical responsibility g) an ability to communicate effectively h) the broad education necessary to

Consequently, professionaleducation for practicing professional engineers must be focused on the highest categories of thecognitive domain in the taxonomy of educational objectives as shown in Figure 1.1,2,4 Inaddition; it must include important areas such as ethics, team building, and effectivemanagement of professionals that clearly fall within affective domain in the taxonomy ofeducational objectives.

Prior findings suggest that cognitive and metacognitive processes emergein young children and remain active throughout their life spans, whereas Epistemic Cognitionbegins to develop in late adolescence and continues to shift in the adult years7-8. In the context ofsolving ill-structured problems, Kitchener stated that, while Metacognition allowed one tochoose different cognitive strategies for the purpose of tackling a specific task, EpistemicCognition allows one to “interpret the nature of a problem and to define the limits of any strategyto solving it” (p. 226).
