, and collaboration with other students from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds [1, 2].Students can gain a sense of ownership over their contributions while also seeing theimplications of their work in other disciplinary contexts [3]. These opportunities can beespecially useful in preparing students for professional practice, where the work of engineers isfundamentally entangled with other constituents (e.g., technicians, marketing, leadership).However, it can be challenging to effectively manage multidisciplinary projects in academicsettings because these projects may differ from traditional lecture-based education in disciplinarysilos. Students may not be used to working on long-time-scale projects or with other studentsoutside their

It sheds the light on how engineering students can beprepared to become ‘outside the box thinkers’ by interacting and working on commonprojects with students from the arts and design majors. The collaborative effortsrevolved around the aspects of “design thinking”, an innovative and broad project basededucational model that uses a systematic approach towards problem solving. Withtraditional engineering education, students are accustomed to breaking down theoreticalproblems and solving them using standard procedures. Although such a way of teachinginstils analytical and methodological thinking, but it is not enough to prepare studentsto be creative in solving future problems. Research shows that engineers who practiceone

There are two primary goals with respect to engineering education. Thefirst is to develop a novel model of graduate education for students in different disciplines to learnhow to collaborate on a new research problem using foundational knowledge they have gained intheir respective areas of study. The second addresses building skills in technical communicationto a diverse audience. This will be demonstrated in future work by mapping this research to anonline educational module to introduce this topic to undergraduate students in different coursessuch as Feedback Control Systems

prevalence and importance of collaboration in engineering research and development cannotbe overstated. Real-world problems are complex and multi-dimensional, thus requiring expertisefrom across multiple domains to problem-solve effectively, calling for training in multi-disciplinary skills as essential for engineering graduates [5]. Outcome-based curriculumdevelopment followed by most universities is aimed at developing engineers better prepared forthe workplace. Several engineering educators [6] - [8] have also strongly advocated for teachingstudents more real-world engineering team operations. However, many students entering theworkforce over the last many decades persistently remain underprepared for and unfamiliar withthe opportunities or
