Dym, et al. present how engineeringeducation is being challenged to require students to consider additional design constraintsrequired as part of “new fundamentals” [5]. In response to this challenge, the CoE at WSU is aleader in reshaping the undergraduate experience to prepare the engineer of 2020, and at thesame time make the educational experience more meaningful to the student and the student moredesirable to local and national industries. As such, the CoE requires that for an Engineering BSdegree at WSU, each student will complete the program course requirements and at least three ofthe following six

learning.Keywords: manufacturing engineering education, globalization, experiential learningIntroductionHistorically, civil and industrial engineering were the largest concentrations, producing themajority of engineering graduates at Geneva College, a Christian liberal arts college in westernPennsylvania1. Since the mid-1960’s, however, the engineering program saw an increase ofdiversification into mechanical, electrical, computer and chemical engineering. By the early1990’s, the Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering (BSIE) program, once the mainstay ofthe Engineering Department, was attracting less and less students. This trend was in line withthe termination of the GI program after World War II and the steady decline of the steel industry
