seminarseries for the fall 2021 semester, which will be offered under liberal arts, engineering, andagricultural/consumer sciences rubrics to bring together graduate students around weekly topicsof interest to the Working Group faculty members. Working through the Illinois Global Institute,a home department was identified to coordinate concurrent sections of the seminar in each ofthree colleges of the university, and Working Group members obtained course approvals tocreate concurrently meeting sections of the seminar. Using this process, no one college or schoolis the seminar host, eliminating a sense of primacy among student registrants. Working Groupfaculty will take turns lining up topics and presenters in a mini-roundtable fashion for theseminar

100After the full text appraisal, the 36 results were classified according to six emergent categories by their keyfocus, as summarized in Table 6. The most common focus of papers on capstone projects was related to thestructure and experience of one specific capstone project, which implied that only well-designed projects werepossibly effective in accomplishing multidisciplinary engineering education. Particularly, there was also atendency to introduce system engineering in other engineering fields to contribute to a more reasonable designof multidisciplinary capstone projects [11-14]. However, only a few articles cast insights on assessment orproject work or student learning, suggesting a need for further research to identify which kinds
