Components into CurriculumTo bridge the gap between the curriculum and new concepts and industrial needs, manyresearchers tried to embed these topics in their curriculum through different methodologies.Examples of these efforts include embedding sustainability, [10], [11], and ethics [12], in theengineering curriculum as well as embedding the design thinking in a multidisciplinaryengineering curriculum, [13]. To help educational institutions bridge this gap, many professionalengineering organizations offered grants to help educational institutions integrate industrialstandards.
