DevelopmentGoals. In 2015, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution for 2030 that included SustainableDevelopment Goals (SDGs). These SDGs have prompted changes to the engineering field to solvethese broad issues by increasing the capabilities and capacity of engineering through theinvolvement of young, student populations. It also prompts a change in engineering education tofocus more on sustainability in the curriculum [18].One final solution is the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Strategic Plan. The NSF hassupported multiple engineering education programs, such as Engineering Research Centers(ERCs) as well as the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU).

, industry skills are taught in senior-level capstoneclasses [5] and a compelling effort within engineering education is to reduce the mismatchbetween industry needs and student preparedness [1], [2]. Engineering students will be bettertrained to enter industry if more industry skills are taught starting in the first year of anundergraduate degree rather than the traditional senior-level focus to increase student’s fluencyin their professional skills. Students feel more prepared to enter the engineering industry if theyhave been taught both the technical and professional skills throughout their entire undergraduatedegree plan [2]. Therefore, it is important to study professional skills in engineering educationprograms; the earlier in the degree plan
