, positive reinforcement, and additional help on project tasks,which may be construed as transformational in nature. When compared to more tangible rewardofferings in a professional setting such as promotions, bonuses, and additional vacation time, thefact that contingent reward behaviors load quite strongly with the MLQ’s transformationalbehaviors is not surprising. This conceptual understanding of the leadership phenomenon,corroborated by early works in the theory indicate that this scale may be measuring leadershipbehaviors consistent with the experiences of student mechanical engineers in a capstone setting.Next, the passive-avoidant/laissez-faire scale developed departs from the current construct of theMLQ Form 5X but is consistent with

combination of hand calculations and different meshing strategies. • Courses dedicated to FEA can meaningfully involve industry; in one case, students were given general requirements for a truck wheel and devised ways to reduce weight [37]. • Recognizing that students are not motivated to study FEA if the course starts simply with deriving a stiffness matrix for an abstract network of springs, an instructor instead started the course by introducing a project on reverse-engineering a flexure from the James Webb Space Telescope; as students learned new techniques through the course, they would revisit this task to improve their models [38].Capstone DesignBy the time they reach the capstone design experience

integrating industrial platforms for educationalpurposes is widely spread among engineering institutions – colleges and universities. Forinstance, students of engineering programs are required to undergo an internship at industrialenterprises of the region and perform a capstone project to demonstrate the new competenciesthey have obtained within the internship period. While regional academic-industrialcooperation through cluster partnership demonstrates positive results for training highlyqualified specialists at present, it should involve international experience in order to remainup-to-date in the forthcoming years.However, the idea of expanding clustering to an international level brings up the series ofpotential issues that arise from the

capstone design course about theirdesign decisions. From the interviews, the authors analyzed the students’ interactions withstakeholders and their perception of the interaction. They found that in order for students toconsider a stakeholder interaction as “useful,” the students would either predefine clear goals forthe interaction, only interact with stakeholders whose expertise closely-aligned to their project, orgive control of the decisions to the stakeholder entirely. Information variability and interpretationand application of that information are a key part of engaging stakeholders that is avoided by thesestrategies.

Class tests also revealed challenges associatedwith scaffolding both students and teachers at these grade levels and levels of experience orinterest in computational subjects. Students struggled with algorithmic design in particular,which made it harder for them to complete the capstone projects in the curricula. There werealso lessons learned about robust design and instrumentation of physical devices in classes thatmight only use them for a short period of time, posing hurdles for both students and teachers.Software affordances developed for programming and analyzing

At the17 institutions surveyed, it would be beneficial for departments to see where their students saidthey were influenced and compare that to where they thought they were affecting student views.Departments could assess if the first-year or capstone projects were influencing the ethicaldevelopment that they expect. Possible single time interventions on ethical or professionalresponsibility are not enough to provide lasting impressions on students such that they wouldhighlight that course years later.

because of the open-ended nature of the activity [30]. Sinceproject-based learning is often done in teams, students engage in reflective dialogue and weighvarious perspectives that further promote critical thinking. Students are also given moreownership over their learning process than they would with traditional course pedagogy, whichfacilitates positive motivations [29], [42]. Capstone design projects, required of all ABET-accredited programs, is just one example of such open-ended, team-based projects. 6Providing real-world scenarios with no right or wrong answers provides an ideal context forstudents to learn how to apply critical thinking to

biomedical problems. During biomedical design, a range ofstrategies can be used to identify a problem and to generate and evaluate solutions. At ColumbiaUniversity, we have an established program for teaching biomedical design to undergraduateswhich culminates in our capstone ‘Senior Design’ course. However, no specified designexperience exists for terminal degree BME Master’s students. Design courses are traditionallytaught utilizing a textbook, lectures, and a team design project, with often limited time forinteractions between and among teams and instructors in the classroom. We also recognized thatthe background and educational and professional goals of undergraduates and graduate studentsare unique. Therefore, we saw a valuable opportunity to
