Among these skills, we focus on engineering judgment as a criticalcapability for mindfully addressing complex, real-world problems. Recognizing its importance,ABET has emphasized the development of engineering judgment in two of its StudentOutcomes, highlighting the need for strategic educational approaches [1].
