These definitions aresupported by Jonassen (2004) when he writes “First, a problem is an unknown entity in some context”,and “Second, finding or solving for the unknown must have some social, cultural or intellectual value”.He then adds one vital ingredient, “someone believes that it is worth finding the unknown”.

Engineering programs ask their advisory board or council for input, and also rely ontheir internal panel of faculty experts, as well as exploring practice at peer university programs.Methodology-wise, industrial engineering faculty have used system theory[1], domain analysis[2]and structural models[3] as an aid in curriculum development.

These include self-assessments (over-inflated grades), peer assessments (heavily influenced by social relationshipswith classmates), situational judgment tests (questions about various scenarios; objectivity isdifficult), behaviorally-anchored teacher-rating scales (difficult to observe all students), and teaminterviews (prohibitively time intensive).24,25,26To model professional work, project-based methods often utilize authentic assessments
