through Transdisciplinary CourseworkAbstractIn the face of today's complex challenges, it is clear that the convergence of academic disciplinesin the support of creating innovative solutions is more important than ever. To enable thisconvergence, universities can adopt transdisciplinary learning experiences that promote theintegration of different academic fields. One common method for integration is the application ofdesign thinking methods and the development of cross-cutting innovation-focused skills. TheMission, Meaning, Making (M3) model is an example of a transdisciplinary educational modelthat aims to transform traditional undergraduate learning experiences by combining the strengthsof different academic units.

The survey was distributed across the engineering field to students,academics, industry employees, and government employees through multiple professionalorganizations and societies. Two hundred and one individuals participated in the survey. Theresults show that the engineering field agrees that (1) technical standards should be taught in theundergraduate engineering curriculum, (2) professors teaching undergraduate engineeringcourses have an acceptable knowledge of technical standards, and (3) four-year academicengineering programs do not put sufficient

caused different levels of EM understanding by students, separate from the standardizedcourse curriculum. Our use of the verbiage “Engineering Mindset” in the assignment prompt alsopresents a limitation in that it differs from the verbiage that is explicitly used in KEEN’s EMLframework, thus limiting this work’s direct integration with other EM concept map studies in theliterature.Assessing EM depends on more facets than those of just the classroom. Students who attend ouruniversity have diverse backgrounds, coming from different races, genders, socioeconomicbackgrounds, and different levels of high school preparation. As a result, a generalized plan fordeveloping an EM could result in certain groups missing out on some of the proposed benefits

In theirseminal paper on the challenges in teaching engineering design, Dym et al.

This multilevel integration is crucial for achieving the full benefits ofreflection in education [19].
