Understandingthat the grand challenges and applying them as frameworks for curriculum development is a keyway to integrate disciplines and enrich STEM literacy skills. Curriculum development under theframework of these grand challenges provides opportunities for students to engage in long-termprojects across disciplines and also provides a university-wide forum for professors tocollaborate on projects. Engineering educators must listen to the call of students who now morethan ever engage in service-learning activities and have a heightened awareness of a globalissues directly

The increased emphasis on formal education by employerscoupled with the simultaneous drop in demand for unskilled labor in the United States continuesto motivate high school graduates to pursue a college education, two -year or four year. It is truethat things do not always proceed as planned and a large number of students switch career plans,and hence their majors during their college years.

book is very differentfrom solving problems with the objective of making something work. In the two differentperspectives, knowledge is valued quite differently. The latter is more aligned with howengineers think and know.Recognizing the disconnect between these two different epistemologies, and arguing for the needto introduce design thinking and inductive thinking earlier into the curriculum, Sheppard et al.2have made a powerful argument, firmly grounded in cognitive science, for balancing textbook-type problems with less structured, more open-ended assignments. Of course, the challenge ofdesigning effective open-ended learning experiences is far from trivial. Sheppard et al.2 observethat novice students, who are capable of solving highly

By interviewing 17 newly hired engineers, Korte, Sheppard and Jordan (2008) identified four subthemes describing the problem solving process in engineering workplace: “organize, define, and understand a problem; gather, analyze, and interpret data; document and present the results; and project-manage the overall problem- solving process”6(p. 6).
