As of today, Web pages are developed by anyone who has the capability to do so. Thereare few standards or guidelines that must be followed to publish a page. This simply means that thereare a vast number of authors on the Internet. With this in mind, it becomes even more important toeducate Web publishers responsible for designing and ensure that they not only appeal to the user’sneeds but also to the user’s behavioral styles.

IntroductionThe pervasive nature of World Wide Web (the web) and social networks such as Facebook andLinkedIn presents tremendous opportunity and challenge for general users who use these systemseveryday as well as scientists and engineers who design and build the infrastructures for thesesystems. One of the critical features of the web and social networks is text-based search, whetherdone explicitly by using search engines such as Google, or done implicitly by pressing a searchbutton on any of these sites. The core of text-based search is supported by the theories andpractices of an academic branch in computer science or information science called

As such, while students work to complete the framework, they alsoengage in a mentoring relationship with a faculty member. The mentoring relationship isdesigned to allow each student to receive guidance on both professional and technical skills andrelated activities while reflecting with a mentor who can provide additional perspective.This paper focuses on the professional skills within the framework, which are divided into thefollowing components: teamwork, communication, engineering habits of mind, solutions andimpact, professional ethics, lifelong learning, leadership, and diversity, equity, and inclusion(DEI).

It is, however, envisioned that such a mind-set shall be compatible with anemerging manufacturing environment in which heretofore unfamiliar paradigms shallincreasingly become commonplace and where tolerance for and acceptance of trends that are notcontemporaneousv shall become compelling.
