development, an equally important objective isthat engineering graduates acquire a set of complementary skills highly valued by industry suchas the ability to work effectively in interdisciplinary teams, leadership, time management, life-long learning, and entrepreneurship mind set. To achieve both objectives, we utilized theVertically Integrated Projects (VIP) model for experiential learning to guide our learning-mentoring approach [14,15]. The VIP model relies on long-term, open-ended, and challengingresearch and development projects with multi-year participation from undergraduate studentsworking on the different aspects of the project. Combined with close mentoring of experiencedfaculty and senior student participants, such learning-mentoring
