The surveyutilized 7 open-ended questions to elicit responses from 9 faculty in a single engineeringdepartment at a Research 1 university located in the southern U.S. The questions were developedby Thompson and Tracy (2011), addressed the following key areas: a) status of industryengagement, b) factors contributing to current status, c) vision and goals for the future toestablish deep engagement with industry, d) exploration of barriers and constraints limitingindustry engagement, and e
, leading to low performance at the end of the semester. Some students always struggle withunderstanding the relationship between mathematical material and engineering material, whichthe chart clearly shows. For example, Fig. 2 illustrates that the Laplace transform in Chapter 3 isa crucial mathematical tool for analyzing and designing circuits, and students must try their bestto grasp the material.At the end of the semester, student performance is evaluated according to their final grades, asshown in Fig. 3. If a student receives an A or B, their performance is marked as high. A Cindicates middle performance, and a D is treated as low performance.

This provides practical learningopportunities while addressing real-world challenges.Since 2012, the Electronic Systems Engineering Technology Program has offered a Lean SixSigma course, where students earning a grade of B or higher receive a Yellow Belt Certificate.The course features case studies to illustrate how the DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze,Improve, Control) process can enhance products or processes.

byBoettcher & Kempler [2].Future work calls for a more targeted survey to understand each program’s needs and skills andprovide guidance for specific outcomes for each program. Although there are some common skillsthat are shared among the four programs that were studied in this paper, which also need to beprioritized to support the technical skills [10], there needs to be specific outcomes for eachprogram. This will help provide guidance to the industry on how to evaluate a successful internshipprogram and also provide guidance to the institutions on what areas need to be addressed whenpreparing students for the workforce.References:[1] R.

The assignment incorporated the following elements: a) Contextual Background: Students were provided with a historical overview of the U.S. interstate highway program, including its goals and the rationale for expansion into urban areas. b) Case Study Approach: The students were divided into four groups and each group researched on a specific highway project (e.g., I-10 in New Orleans, I-81 in Syracuse, I- 85 in Atlanta, or I-75 in Detroit) to investigate in-depth. The case study framework required students to examine: o The demographic, economic, and cultural
