Based on the findings, theresearchers identified four major categories of construction 4.0 positions: ‘virtual design andconstruction,’ (VDC) with the most open positions, followed by ‘design and constructionintegration management,’ (DCIM) ‘lean and industrialized construction’ (LIC) and ‘innovationmanagement’ (IM). VDC as well as DCIM positions are focused on project, mainly design phase,management. However, while VDC positions manage building information modeling, DCIMfocus on a broader scope of information management. LIC positions focus on production andprocess improvement.

engineering students enrolled in anexperimental multi-disciplinary program described the impact of key program elements on howthey experienced failure, perceived risk, and embraced learning as an iterative process. In thisproblem-based, hands-on and mastery-assessed program, students iterated and worked throughfailure as part of their learning process. These real-world applications and projects wereinherently multidisciplinary, because they challenged students to draw on and integrate theirmastery of essential course outcomes related to physics, statics, calculus 3 and circuits. Thispilot was too small to support generalizable inferences, but preliminary findings point to keyprogram elements for future research exploring how the participants

One goal of this escape room wasto provide an additional opportunity for students to practice skills and use equipment before theybegin an open-ended project at an appropriate challenge level [12].

This study “was a statistically valid and groundbreaking view of mechanical engineeringeducation” and data from the study strongly supports the conclusion that changes in the mechanicalengineering curricula to teach practical knowledge of manufacturing processes are needed to meetthe expectations of the industry [4]. This discrepancy between education and the expectations ofemployers has been exasperated by the recent trend of over-relying on additive manufacturing asa means for students to produce the projects they design in school.
