,questions, and dilemmas, versus the restricted nature of a design and the necessity of itserving a specific purpose while operating under certain constraints and requirements.Their explanations were followed by the conclusion that “a good design always hassome aspect of art behind it”. In other words, a good design is also always a good pieceof art. After VCU’s presentation on the fundamentals of art and design, the engineeringteams were now tasked with presenting and explaining core engineering aspects. Theirmain objective was to share concepts, terminologies, and methodologies that could beapplied in tandem with and would complement the artistic design process discussed byVCU. These specific concepts were chosen whilst keeping in mind the broader
compromise in some areas. We used our funds judiciously, working toward creatingspecializations within the MDE program that would reflect the comparative strengths of theuniversity. Lesson 4: Consider ABET accreditation from the beginning.ABET accreditation is a key component in any engineering program, and the design of thecurriculum of each specialization and sequencing of classes within the MDE program should befocused on fulfilling and reinforcing any given School of Engineering's commitment to ABET'soverall educational objectives. Our program was built with ABET accreditation in mind from theearly planning stages. We ensured that our core degree choices would meet the requirements forthis accrediting body, and our assessment plan was integral
learning,including collaborative and PBL, in this course.AcknowledgmentThis material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.2044255.

(...) you should know how to convey theseprocesses or ideas. (If they are) working on projects, the ideas must be clear."

It must be considered(by the graduate) when leaving the university.”These responses show that industry members are looking for specific skills or competencies ingraduates. For example, as a young

In this regard, several writing tasks were outlined, whereinundergraduate engineering students were asked to write with and without AI’s assistance in orderto explore the pros and cons of using natural language processing (NLP) models for technicalwriting and gauge the interest and enthusiasm of students in utilizing AI tools. Then, acomprehensive comparative analysis was conducted to analyze several factors including writingstyle, the structure of paragraphs, the accuracy of numerical data, and the empathetic language ofthe essays
