The current problem and research objectives Common complaints from the employers in manufacturing industry are the college graduates'deficiency in people skills, their needs in step by step instructions, their inability in problemsolving, and their inexperience in information gathering. In general, companies need engineerswho can work in a team, can be a self-starter, can adapt to company culture quickly, can

Process EducationTM incorporatescooperative learning, guided discovery activities, journal writing, and various assessment tools.Unlike a lecture based approach, a Process EducationTM class requires more active participationof both mentor and team members. Team members actively work through in-class tasks, whichinclude critical thinking, assessment, deadlines, and journal entries. With this approach theinstructor take on the nontraditional role of facilitator.

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.
