We have summarized the technical and soft skills taughtin each of our courses and given the importance of each skill to engineering managers (Table 1).Our program distinction is the business courses, but we included our regular engineeringtechnology courses for comparison. These courses collectively develop a robust toolkit oftechnical and soft skills crucial for Engineering Managers to effectively lead technical teams,projects, and organizations. The emphasis on applying knowledge to real-world problems,communicating with diverse stakeholders, thinking critically and ethically, and workingcollaboratively prepares students for the multifaceted challenges and opportunities they will faceas Engineering Managers in industry.

year-long Capstone design experience. With a fo- cus on providing students with a broader experience base, the multidisciplinary program applies teams of engineers, business, design, and other students to work with Ohio companies to help them be more competitive and with local non-profits to help them become self-sustaining. Using a formal design pro- cess, teams develop new products to meet industries’ competitive needs and others to meet the needs of people with disabilities. Students learn to solve open-ended problems and gain skills in critical thinking, professional communication, ethics, and teamwork.

Toeffectively solve these complex problems, engineers have to rigorously and adeptly applytechnical skills and soft skills such as communication, collaboration, and empathy [2]. Soft skillsare widely recognized as having increasing importance for employment, career success, andprofessional and personal satisfaction in modern engineering workplaces [3].Empathy is a critical soft skill, focused on building emotional intelligence [2], [4], [5], [6], andhas many definitions in the literature [7].

The mission of the cadet program is to educate and prepare graduates to serve asprincipled leaders by instilling core values focused on academics, duty, honor, morality,discipline, and diversity. The high ethical calling of engineering students is further supportedthrough the unwavering devotion to the honor code, which states, “A cadet does not lie, cheat, orsteal, nor tolerate those who do.” Additionally, the institution’s curriculum and studentdevelopment program include eight semesters of ROTC military leadership instruction andstudent-centered barracks campus life focusing on moral and ethical leadership principles.Students who enter the 2+2 program, which is offered in conjunction with Trident TechnicalCollege

The instructor framed the discussions around societal and culturalintersections with engineering, providing an opportunity for in-class discussion of issues thatstudents find important to engineering. For example, one of the authors of this paper uses lecturetime to discuss how different engineering disciplines evolved over time. Historic and non-western examples were used to highlight elements of engineering that expand students’conception of the profession, while local examples drew students into issues that might directlyimpact their own lives.
