Delivery Method The course is instructor-led classroom training combined with in-class simulationexercises designed to invite class participation. This approach aids in the individualizedinstruction given to the participant. Instructional methods include facilitated discussion,hands-on simulation of production, and on-the-job practical applications. PowerPointpresentations are used to deliver the course, supplemented by a series of videotapes fromSociety of Manufacturing Engineers and Productivity Inc.

The paper proceeds in the following ways. First, we discuss the growing literature on the rolesand required skills for engineers followed by the integrated management and economics instruction aspart of integrating engineering and management education.

They must be able to be innovativein design and execution, utilizing creative thinking along with understanding math and scienceprinciples. They must also be able to work within multidisciplinary teams of other industryprofessional and communicate effectively across those disciplines [4-7].Another driving factor is that Engineering and Construction Management (CM) programs arealso being required to change to meet the requirements of the accreditation bodies [8-12]. “TheCouncil on Post-Secondary Accreditation in the US Department of Education has mandated thataccrediting agencies use outcome assessments in evaluating their programs.
