We have been communicating with PSU alumni at iMFLUX in order tomodify a test bar mold for the Arburg injection molder. The modification will allow pressuresensors for iMFLUX Automatic Viscosity Adjustment (AVA) technology to be introduced intothe mold. AVA technology can then adjust parameters to maintain consistent production withvaried materials including PCR and bioplastics. Our capstone course gives students the ability towork in teams with one focused project over the course of two semesters, allowing them to learnabout the details of their project at a much greater depth than shorter-term laboratory orclassroom learning

Some research has been done on hands-on team projects during the pandemic, such asstudying the impact of COVID-19 on senior capstone design courses (see, e.g., [13]), but there isless research on team projects in regular lecture and laboratory courses. As universities begin toreturn to pre-pandemic instruction methods and experiment with hybrid classes, it is important tostudy these courses in which students are again having to adjust study habits and team-workingbehaviors.We present a quantitative analysis of engineering students’ responses to survey questions relatedto their

efforts and the successes and challenges encountered as we work toaddress business research needs in the engineering curriculum.Introduction and Literature ReviewThe teaching of business competencies to engineering students is exploding in engineeringeducation due to a variety of factors. First, there is a critical need to develop professional skills,including leadership, communication and teamwork, and capabilities for “real-world”engineering design and operations, along with learning the core math, science, and technicalaspects of engineering [1], [2]. Interviews and surveys of early-career engineers revealed notonly technical skills were needed but also skills for industry, like complex project managementand soft skills, that newcomers had to

In undergraduate engineering contexts, like capstone design projects, problemsare more complex and less constrained (Howe et al., 2017). Given the complexity of designcontexts compared to the more structured contexts found in the current shared mental modelliterature, it is not yet clear if the measurement techniques used in those studies are useful.Moreover, though we might expect the findings to carry over into the design context, it is notclear if results and findings related to shared mental models found in more structured problemsettings will have the same characteristics compared to a more complex problem-solvingenvironment.2.2 Engineering

Regardless, the core challenges facing students are: recognizing the actual problem, developingpotential solutions, applying experimental methods, understanding the significance of appropriate datacollection, and ability to execute engineering judgement. These outcomes is often realized in labs and upperlevel courses once technical knowledge is solidly mastered.
