don’t know what those systems will be because they’re going to becreated, they’re going to be new. But what is clear is that they’re going to rely on fundamentals,because that is how the design process is done.”2. Deep Structure: Teaching for BreadthIn contrast to the mixed reports on teaching for depth, teaching for breadth was observed as apositive outcome for the majority of alumni interviewed. For example, one alumnus mentionedthat the breadth of knowledge in engineering science has provided “metaphors to draw on whenI’m trying to understand a new domain”, while another mentioned that the breadth of knowledge“broaden(s) your scope of knowledge” and gives cross disciplinary perspectives which is usefulas “somebody needs to be the person that

Their answers were as follows: 12% due to limited funding, 18% because theyhave not heard or thought about it before, 18% not interested in graduate school, 44% prefergaining experience in industry before pursuing an advanced degree, and the remaining 9% hadlisted other responses.Students were also asked to explain if they recognize any advantages to the program and toexplain why.

stakeholdersand students’ investment of time in their extracurricular Maker activities. Pines, et al. suggestthat establishing maker curriculum in addition to the traditional curriculum has allowed for thedevelopment of broader skillsets which cover knowledge beyond engineering, includingteamwork, creativity, innovation, collaboration, critical thinking, project management, andsystems engineering. These skills are highly valued in the technical workforce but not alwayspracticed or developed in formal education settings.Oplinger et al.’s “Making and Engineering: Understanding Similarities and Differences” [6]covers a general survey which shows that both making and engineering are perceived to beactive, project developing fields.

Both themore data oriented initial coding as well as the conceptualizing focused coding happened inparallel for much of the overall coding process. Focused coding was the first conceptual stepin the data analysis where significant or frequent first order codes are used to group andexplain larger sets of data. All of the codes remaining after the initial and focused coding,were then further thematically analyzed in a format inspired by Gioia et al.’s data structure[38].

of framing an engineering problem as being composed of discretesystems, the Circle Way recognizes that the parts are not only interacting, but that the boundariesbetween them are shifting, arbitrary, and often far from clear. The Circle Way challengesparticipants to shift their orientation from a collection of individuals to a co-creating community.For instance, consider a technical project team: one typical approach would be to break down theproject into the electrical, mechanical, and software (etc.) engineering sub-projects, assign eachto the student(s) of that major, and integrate the completed parts into the whole system at thevery end. If instead students used the Circle Way approach to discuss and share ideas about thewhole project

We utilized twoexisting surveys: the Reisman Diagnostic Creativity Assessment (RDCA) [10] and theInnovative Behavior Scales (IBS) [11]. We chose two instruments, as while the RDCA coveredmost of the course objectives, an inspection of Reisman et al. [10] indicated that the surveyconstructs had questionable reliability in prior use. Therefore, our team refined this instrumentand its constructs prior to data collection. In contrast, our team had utilized Dyer et al.’s (2008)instrument in the past, with results that had excellent reliability. Notably, the

Biomolecular Engineering. Common across all teams is a minimumtimeframe of three to five years. Teams typically become integral parts of faculty researchprograms, continually evolving with the team advisor’s research.3. The program is curricular and all participating students are graded (A-F; not P/F, S/U). VIPis not an extra- or co-curricular activity. It is a sequence of courses whose credits count towardsstudents' degree requirements, and letter grading holds students accountable for their work. Inmany ways, feedback and grading in VIP is like an evaluation in the workplace. Work isevaluated, guidance is given, and students have the opportunity to improve. The curricularstructure and the philosophy that all students can benefit from the experience
