And so, having that space where, like [an expert in mechanical engineering] is there and [education research] that opened I don’t know their mind to the field of engineering education like that would be interesting and impactful to hear from.” - Participant 6While there are several graduate students in ESED with graduate degrees in mechanical engineering, participant 6 earned agraduate degree in a different discipline.

PBL has long been shown to be an effectivemethod for student learning and understanding, particularly if thoughtfully integrated throughoutthe curriculum ​[1] and if instructors include key features, such as meaningful inquiries,scaffolded assignments, and consistent feedback ​[2]​. Other studies have shown that PBL is moreeffective in deeper retention of material, satisfaction of both students and professors, anddevelopment of professional skills than traditional lecture methods ​[3]​. However, the overalleffectiveness of PBL, and experiential learning in general, may vary widely depending on thenature and structure of the teamwork ​[4]​.This study was conducted at the branch campus of Texas A&M University

As students tackle increasingly complex problems, the ambiguity of thechallenges makes framing and scoping critical, and team members must work hard to collaboratein the face of uncertainty. Further, splitting the work up as a team is not an option, as the systemsthemselves - and the tools used to illustrate them - are interconnected. Instruction in systemsmapping processes and tools can help students to facilitate that collaboration

Rather than waitingfor students to transfer to Virginia Tech, this program is an example of how a four-yearinstitution can actively participate in the education process during students’ time at a communitycollege.

A shift to integrating information, computational, and communications technology in educationIn the 50’s, industry demands for engineers required a change in the process of training andeducation of engineers. Engineering curricula and other phases of college programs were modifiedto provide an alignment between colleges and industry [4]. This evolution of the discipline movedacademic institutions to have a more dynamic and adaptive curriculum.

A thorough communication campaign promoting the benefits of careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) introduced a PENG curriculum in middle and high schools to achieve this goal [20].

EJ is an individual’s capacity to determine and execute tasks that willhave a predicted outcome [5, 6]. When engineers work in the real world, many times projectswill require the engineer to come up with solutions which cannot be found inside of codes ormanuals. When following a structural engineering firm, the engineers were able to analyzebuilding plans and make changes to designs based on previous knowledge [7]. An engineer maybe an expert when using codes and references but cannot be a competent engineer if lacking EJ[8]. During an engineering student’s curriculum, EJ should be developed incrementally
