The National Academy of Engineering (NAE) [1] defines attributes of the engineer of 2020as follows: “He or she will aspire to have the ingenuity of Lilian Gibbreth, the problem-solvingcapabilities of Gordon Moore, the scientific insight of Albert Einstein, the creativity of PabloPicasso, the determination of the Wright brothers, the leadership abilities of Bill Gates, theconscience of Eleanor Roosevelt, the vision of Martin Luther King, and the curiosity and wonderof our grandchildren.” This means that being an engineer is multifaceted, where expectationsinclude possessing a variety of abilities such as professionalism, leadership, ethical standards,communication, creativity, management, listening and problem-solving skills.

The best control would have been parallel sections ofthe course that omitted DYL, but this was not feasible for reasons of both logistics (ourprogram’s small size would mean that sample sizes were too small to provide reliableresults) and ethics (some students would not have the DYL content that the programperceived to be important to them).

For example, a further investigation mayilluminate that idealistic design methods may not be retained by students as they move into theworkplace and become practicing engineers.

As effective engineering leaders need to demonstrate effectiveness as engineersfirst, four skills needed to be an effective engineer are technical competence, interpersonal skills,work ethic, and moral standards [41]. One problem, though, is that because successful engineeringstudents demonstrate proficiency in a highly technical field, they consequently also tend to hold ahigh value for technical competence. Effective engineers, then, may not value the development ofskills needed for success as leaders.The Communities of Practice model then points to other important leadership outcomes that resultfrom participation in, and subsequent mastery of, a particular practice.
