In thedigital era, the importance of lifelong learning, upskilling, reskilling, and acquisition of newcompetences is emphasized [2]. Postmodern society emphasizes the role of an individual: foradolescents, self-exploration, self-actualization, finding an interesting field of study,developing a satisfying career, and establishing a meaningful life are among the key factorssteering the decisions about education and occupation [3, 4, 5, 6].In the modern world

of opening the first MESA Program in Texas [3], [4] in 2007. It was thefirst and still is the only MESA Program in Texas. From the beginning it was a center thatcontinuously promoted technical literacy and being coordinated by our Engineering Program, itwas also one of our major promoters and recruiters for students to pursue careers in STEM fieldsand particularly, in engineering. Its mission was, and still is, to help and support studentsbecome scientists, engineers, and mathematicians responding to a growing national need forqualified technical professionals.BackgroundThe term “technological literacy” refers to one's ability to use, manage, evaluate, and understandtechnology (ITEA, 2000/2002) [5].

The findings included substantial agreement among highlevel officers of academic and non-academic organizations, stating: “The overwhelming majority of the professionals interviewed agreed that a significant percentage of the members of their organizations believe that there are serious problems with the current system for educating both engineers and architects. This view was expressed by both academics and non-academics and by respondents who did not themselves necessarily agree with the idea that problems exist.”Specifically calling out, “ . . . the failure of schools to give students enough practical knowledge and instruction in solving real world problems.”and volunteering, “Two

Without this helping hand thereis no mastery learning [10].The same is true when the student in the final year, finishing capstone courses, and needs professionalorientation from an experienced faculty member regarding the onset of a lifelong career path in future.This is not only on the technical gadgets but also a focus on the difference between the academia andthe industries in relation with time management, safety factors and cost analyses. A command andhence a control on each of these areas can only be achieved through mastery learning.The

According to Chartrand et al. 3 , 69% of industry executives admit theyassess critical thinking skills in the selection process. Similarly, a report commissioned by theAssociation of American Colleges and Universities (AAC&U) finds that more than 75% ofemployers want more focus on five key career preparation areas: critical thinking, complexproblem-solving, written and oral communication, and applied knowledge in real-world settings 4 .Meanwhile, these studies indicate that 49% of employers rate their employees’ critical thinkingskills as only average or below average, and only 28% of employers rated four

learn more), and engage in the process oflearning. For instructors, the general attempt is to keep up with the students' learning pace byadjusting the course activities, and possibly content to the students’ capabilities. At the same time,the instructor is seeking ways to communicate ideas to the students in meaningful and relatableways. The goal of the instructor is to facilitate their learning and provide them the ability to employthese concepts in their future courses and careers. The hope is that students can learn, be engagedin the process of learning, and can adapt to what they learn as they progress in their careers.Expectations, Expected Role of Students: Students ViewAs a student, the expectation is that the instructor is fair/unbiased

most contributed to their ability and willingness to workas engineers.ConclusionInstitution-level metrics of engineering student persistence and graduation rates do not answerthe ultimate question: have we added to the numbers of engineers in the workforce? Census datasuggest a disconnect between graduation rates and numbers of those entering the workplace. Thetwo issues embedded in that question are whether graduates of engineering programs haveadequately learned the knowledge and skills needed for engineering careers, and whether ourgraduates want to use their newly gained knowledge and skills.Issues of students’ learning and motivation may best be detected at the course level, rather thanat the institutional one.

In developing this course, our primary interest was to give studentsat an early stage in their academic experience an introduction to engineering, whether they cameto college with the idea of possibly pursuing a career in engineering or whether they wanted toget a deeper understanding of the influence of engineering on the world in which they live. Forthat reason our orientation in this course was different from the orientation found in Bucciarelli’sand Drew’s proposal for integrating the liberal arts with engineering (2015). As we were notprimarily interested in preparing future engineers, our course was less technically(mathematically) focused. Our course was also

As with an assembledproduct, the quality of the value-added process at each stage of a manufacturing process directlyimpacts downstream components, especially if there is a direct reliance for a particularrequirement. For example, calculus is required in nearly all engineering courses, and competencyin calculus can be analogous to quality of an input stage early in the manufacturing processinitiated by the employee.Finally, we present a learner-centered course redesign of a statics course to show theapplicability of modern manufacturing principles towards improving engineering

More importantly they feel this project isgeared towards solving a challenge which they deem is important to their learning outcomes. While not directly assessed in the first seven years of this project we are looking to see if thisability to expand their skill sets and take on new and growing challenges yields over time moreself-confidence.

perspectives.Notwithstanding the issue of finance, or indicators of issues for research raised by this study,as for example, levels of required mathematical attainment, Krupczak shows there is plentyof research to be done in this area that is not being done and should be done. He writes,“one suggestion for research might be to inquire of those engineers whose career paths haveled them out of engineering into positions in which they are making contributions in otherspheres of activity. Engineering is well known for the fact that many formally trained asengineers are now fulfilling other responsibilities that may also be occupied by individualswith other types of formal training. All types of business and management are obviousexamples but individuals formally trained
