ElementsAbstract:Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) is an extremely important skill formechanical engineering students who will mainly design mechanical devices and components.However, a GD&T course is typically not included in an undergraduate mechanical engineeringcurriculum. In our mechanical engineering curriculum, bits of basic concepts of GD&T arebriefly mentioned or discussed in several different courses. It has been observed in the lastseveral years that some students in their senior capstone project designs still didn’t know how toproperly define assembly dimension tolerances or component dimension tolerances. In the lasttwo years, the authors used one and a half weeks out of a total of a fifteen-week semester toteach GD&T

courses'competitive nature.Engagement is one of the main factors that can be used to predict academic success. An engagedstudent is more likely to have short-term goals such as an intention to participate in an internshipprogram or long-term goals such as intentions to pursue graduate studies or move into the technicalworkforce. Tutoring sessions, field trips, and research projects have been introduced to theundergraduate engineering student's curriculum ostensibly to increase engagement. Peerdiscussions in undergraduate courses have helped develop the personal and social skills to thrivein an engineering major. Peer discussions seem to enhance student learning compared with coursesthat do not allow peer discussions [2]. Capstone projects serve as a great

“Simulation…hasbecome ubiquitous in engineering education.” More recently, Magana [4] presents research donewith a panel of 18 experts from academia and 19 from industry, on what modeling andsimulation (M&S) practices should be integrated into engineering education. There wassignificant consensus on the need for skills related to validation, acknowledging uncertainty inthe interpretation of simulation predictions, and developing intuition and being critical of results.Developing a healthy doubt of computer-generated results in students is an issue that others haveaddressed [5], [6]. Both the increasing use of M&S, and the need for the credibility of M&Sresults to be questioned, is addressed in the ASME Guide for Verification and

from an understanding that engineers need systems thinking skills to address complexengineering problems, our research is aligned with best practices in curriculum and trainingmaterial development. Once a desired result is identified, in this case the goal is to developengineers who are able to use comprehensive systems thinking knowledge and skills to addresscomplex problems, the next step is to determine how the achievement of that goal will beassessed [8]. Such assessment(s) then guide the development of learning activities andexperiences, e.g., methods for teaching systems thinking [8].

Six major themes wereidentified: 1) An unsupportive engineering training environment creates stress, 2) Difficult workand time constraints create stress, 3) Supportive input from others promotes help-seeking, 4) Iftime is limited, mental health is a lower priority, 5) Students operate on a suck it up mentalityunless they’ve reached a breaking point and 6) Help-seeking
