Learning hasalso been shown to improve students’ confidence, school engagement, and mental health(Greenberg et al., 2017). Additionally, students tend to benefit long-term and are better preparedfor higher education, more successful in their careers, and more engaged citizens (Greenberg etal., 2017). Tumaini students appear to reap many of these benefits: they felt that they were a partof a supportive community and that they learned a lot about themselves such as how to controltheir emotions, how to be comfortable with themselves, and how to express themselves. Since itis very important that students fully complete their industrial attachments to maximize theirbenefits from the program, the fact that students possess these soft skills speaks

includes the science from its scientific theories underpinsthe engineering design process, the technology as a product of science and engineering, andin turn, technological tools are used in science and engineering, the engineering usingscientific and mathematical foundations as well as technological tools, and the mathematicsusing in science, engineering, and technology [23]. For the participants, integrating STEMinto the school curriculum is important because it allows the disciplines of science,technology, engineering, and mathematics to be addressed in an interdisciplinary and holisticmanner. This promotes the development of soft skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, collaboration, creativity, and research, among

tasks, and meet objectives; develop and conductappropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment todraw conclusions; and acquire and apply new knowledge using appropriate learningstrategies. Some engineering disciplines incorporated additional outcomes. Accreditationby ABET ensures that a program has met these standards and prepares graduates forprofessional practice.Subsequently, a myriad of publications all urged the Engineering Education Profession toconsider not only pedagogical changes and competencies, but also focus on soft skills,globalization, global impact and doing rigorous engineering education research.
