Students often find thereality of engineering design overwhelming the first time they experience it. They beginundergraduate engineering programs learning science and math through formats steepedin a learning culture that is linear and process-oriented to identify the single answers tocarefully constructed problems. Consequently, students demonstrate significantdiscomfort or reticence when thrust into situations in which they are expected to embracea nonlinear, circuitous process to solve an ill-defined problem. In these circumstancesstudents employ their practiced, linear paradigms and struggle to engage in the requisitework of

The type of problem is dependent on the specific situation of the curriculum, study regulation, semester etc. Normally a semester theme guide which problems can be dealt with. Often semester courses are planned to meet demand from the study regulation and will at the same time support the problem solving process the students have chosen for their project. It is crucial that the problem serves as the basis for the learning process because it will determines the direction of the learning process as well as a problem places emphasis on a question rather than an answer. This also allows the learning content

Taxonomy to specify desired levels of achievement in the CEPC might be problematic, because the Taxonomy requires the use of measurable, action-oriented verbs. However, ultimately, the CEPCTC determined that the EAC’s concern could be adequately addressed without compromising on the use of Bloom’s Taxonomy simply by changing the introductory clause of the CEPC from “The curriculum must prepare graduates to…” to “The curriculum must include topics necessary to….” The latter phrase was quoted directly from the recently approved EAC Program Criteria for Cybersecurity Engineering [10] which were cited by the EAC Criteria Committee as an example of criteria that satisfied their concern

The guidelines presented in 2Accreditation Criterion 3 address student learning outcomes towards ethical and professionalresponsibilities, although they do not define a framework or goals to achieve this outcome (ABETpg. 5). Thus, engineering programs have both the opportunity and responsibility to define theirown goals towards establishing their ethics curriculum.

A number of programs have embedded a project management course within itsengineering curriculum to train students before undertaking a capstone project [5,9,11]. So howwell do students embed these skills within their projects? The integration of project and teammanagement can be studied by looking at the direct outcomes of projects and by capturing thestudent feedback on how well they utilized these skills within their projects.In this research, we studied student perceptions of their efforts in managing projects and teams.Two quantitative surveys focused on

From an organizationalperspective, individual barriers are commonly associated with misunderstandings and lack ofcommunication, lack of trust and threats to job status and security [9], [10]. Particularlyconcerning to faculty are changes that affect resources and time [10–12]. Lozano [9] notes thatbarriers are also present at the group and organizational level [10].

While there arewell-established cryptography courses offered in the Computer Science and Mathematicsdisciplines, these classes tend to focus on mathematical foundations rather than servicesand applications. Consequently, the developer of such courses finds that resourcesparticularly those relating to “hands-on” activities are lacking.For a lab module designer, creating modules that support an applied cryptography classpresents several unique challenges. For example, the choice of laboratory softwarepresents a unique challenge. This is especially true since most commercial
