These courses also help budding engineerssolidify their engineering identities. Recent years have seen a greater call for developingengineers who are able to diverse and ambiguous real-world problems [1]. This call for reformcomes from the industry as well as the call from the Accreditation Board for engineering andTechnology (ABET) [2]. Engineering students often go on to becoming committed professionalsbut also leaders in their communities. Therefore, it is extremely important to develop studentengineers who are able to work collaboratively in interdisciplinary teams [3]; take on short- andlong

Mostengineering programs define the core of engineering curricula as mathematics, science,engineering analysis, and design; however, students need more than just technical skills [2].

In addition, at a recent department Industry Advisory Council (IAC) meeting,professional engineers indicated that entry-level engineers from our university have the technicalskills, but need further training in interpersonal and professional skills.

Afterthe Second World War there was a significant transition in STEM curricula toward scientificintegration [3]. In the early 2000s the change in ABET requirements for ethics created anothersea change in engineering curricula [4]. The increase in active learning and evidence-basedinstructional practices has started a slower change in engineering education during the last 20years.Another example of
