management, communication skills, and decision-making [8] The industry considers engineers the vehicle for development because they play a crucial role in industrial evolution[9]. The industry requires engineering graduates with skills that meet the current industrial needs. It is essential in engineering schools to focus on industrial needs, as that increases the alignment level between industry and academia. In other words, the more universities know and apply in curriculums the industrial objectives, the more they are helping students to enhance their skills and get trained on what they will face in the industry. Hence, if the lack of capstone design project completion and low student motivation remained the same, it would

In academic contexts, engineering educatorsattempt to provide meaningful teamwork experiences for students to prepare them for the profession. Theemphasis on teamwork as a learning outcome has recently increased (ABET, 2012; Patil & Codner,2007), with team projects spanning the entire engineering curriculum from first-year courses to capstonecourses (Froyd, 2005). As a learning outcome, teaming is linked to a wide range of professional skills,including communication, ethics and lifelong learning (Borrego et al., 2013

Course problem sets and projects routinely focus on determining variables and solvingequations where there is one “right” answer [4]. However, engineering work is inherently bothtechnical and social [5], [6]. To address major problems of today’s world, engineering studentsneed to develop contextual and cultural competencies, ethical responsibility, and socialengagement knowledge and skills, as well as the ability to work across disciplinary boundaries[7]–[10].
