important sources of data for identifying areas for improvement. When several options present themselves, time constraints forces a choice, and it is not always an easy matter to decide which. The Lean Manufacturing framework presented here can be used to develop a mechanism for instructors to use to weigh options and point them towards the ones that have the highest potential to positively impact Just-In-Time delivery, use of available brainpower and building-in quality. This can be motivational for the instructor by giving them a priori a degree of confidence that the changes they are considering will have benefit, as opposed to just hoping for the best.3.

This style of instruction does not accurately reflect anengineer’s job requirements, which often include multi-disciplinary problem-solving andworking in groups. Under recent ABET guidance, there has been an increased push for project-based learning that integrates complex, group problem-solving to better align with employer’sneeds2.

This is because an engineer can gain fromthe practical viewpoint of a business student, and a business student can gain from the technicalviewpoint of an engineer. Chemical engineering faculty can similarly partner with business students at their owninstitution.
