There is very little lecture, with most time spent on hands-on activities. Inaddition to technical content, students also receive guidance on professional development topicssuch as resume development, workplace communication, and interviewing skills. Service-basedlearning is a component of both academies with students giving back to

Most of these articles are not specificto ME. Many of the following articles are discussed in Ref. [17].Tryggvason et al. report on a major revision of the ME curriculum at the University of Michigan[18]. This revision was informed by a survey taken in 1993 in which alumni rated courses andtopics based on their importance; design and creativity, technical communication, interpersonalskills, and professional ethics were rated as the most important; alumni also stated that they werenot as well-prepared in these areas as they were in traditional ME technical

intervention:Traditionally, engineering has been viewed purely as a technical problem-solvingdiscipline [11], pushing engineers into the real world with a “one-size-fits-all” approach.Consequently, advanced technological solutions to problems around the world are beingcarried out with little understanding of the solution’s local economic, social, and/orenvironmental impacts. To bring about social justice and sustainability throughengineering solutions, values and ethics must be at the forefront of current engineeringcurricula. A socio-technical project-based learning model is implemented in this course[12] with contextualized design problems.

Five of the participants reported that their team hadnot been “in sync.” Two other participants reported that their teams were split on whether tolaunch their project as a startup. As one participant reported, their team’s dynamics started on theright path but did not go as well toward the end of the project. The goal, he said, was to get thegrade and not to pursue the project. As another participant put it, his assigned team had noguarantee of a common work ethic or a common vision.A third factor involves lack of passion for the project.

In community services, women had a volunteer rate of 27.8% in 2015compared to men 21.8%. Women volunteered at a higher rate than men and this was true acrossall age groups, educational levels, and major demographics characteristics (such as race andemployment status) [7].Influence is closely associated with leadership. A capable leader provides guidance at theworkplace, home, and/or community [8]. It follows that, those influencing are consideredefficient leaders that motivate their colleagues, family or community [9, 10].
