IntroductionIn the rapidly evolving landscape of technology and innovation, the conventional boundaries thatonce confined individual fields of study are becoming increasingly blurred. Moreover, acceleratedby the COVID-19 pandemic, the world of work is undergoing momentous change. Nearly half ofall occupations (including those in production, transportation, extraction, agriculture, andmaintenance/repair) are at risk of being automated within the next two decades [1]. At the sametime, labor shortages within the U.S. have plagued post-pandemic recovery efforts and areparticularly dire for

The industrial revolution in the early 1900’s brought to creation a diverse array ofbuildings, factories, and equipment to support the evolution of the United States of America. Toaddress the challenges associated with a rapidly growing industry, in 1915 thought leaders in plantengineering assembled a forum in Boston, Massachusetts of mechanical engineers, mastermechanics, and chief engineers in plants.

However, manyengineering educators engaged in undergraduate engineering instruction lack either the resourcesto create technical standards educational material for insertion into their courses or access to suchpre-developed material which they could customize for their courses. As a result, students’ first,primary, and only exposure to technical standards often comes through opportunities external touniversities.

This notionhas been communicated through the NAE [1] and more recently by ASEE's "TransformingUndergraduate Engineering Education [2] (TUEE)" workshop where industry and academicparticipants “seek a T-shaped engineering graduate who brings broad knowledge across domainsand the ability to collaborate within a diverse workforce as well as deep expertise within a singledomain”.
