onthose beliefs. The program is also grounded in John Dewey’s proposition that higher education isto assist individuals in developing the skills to be effective in their preferred occupation. Thisprogram focuses on developing professional competencies such as people and projectmanagement,leadership, and ethics, as well as perseverance, stress management, and the ability toreflect and modify one’s process of learning. Treveylan’s [9] studies on “the work that engineersdo” call for more emphasis on professional skills such as communication and the ability toperform effectively on teams. Treveylan advocates for students teaching others because“education, like engineering practice, relies on special kinds of social interactions” and thatstudents

The studywas approved by the U of S Behavioural Research Ethics Board. Volunteers completed a “pre-survey” that examined knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding trusses, before trusses had beentaught in the classroom. Participants were then randomly assigned to one of three groups: no lab,regular lab, and TrussVR© lab. All participants then attended 2 weeks of in-class lectures ontrusses, frames, and machines, as they normally would. During this time, the “no lab” group didnot complete an experimental lab on trusses

The program was developed from the ground up to not be anengineering discipline-specific program, but to provide students training with an emphasis onengineering design, systems thinking, and sustainability while also providing a strong foundationin engineering science3. The vision of the program is to produce cross-disciplinary engineerversatilists. At the heart of the program is the six-course engineering design sequence whichprovides instruction on design theory (thinking, process, methods, tools, etc.), sustainability,ethics, team management, and technical communication (both oral and written), whileincorporating
