The evaluation and assessment of‘hard’ skills is generally considered to be significantly easier than that of ‘soft’ skills andabilities, such as (h) [The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineeringsolutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context].

alsorevealing evidence of increasing efforts to promote and institutionalize multidisciplinary engineering education,including courses, capstone design experiences, and entire degree programs. Yet while lots of attention has beenpaid to multidisciplinary engineering education, few if any efforts have been made to survey the overalllandscape of multidisciplinary efforts in engineering education, including to identify effective approaches andpractices. Due to this lacking and even ill-defined picture of multidisciplinary engineering education, effectiveefforts and best practices might be overlooked by both researchers and educators. To address this gap in theliterature, a comprehensive review of multidisciplinary engineering education is needed to make

Itwill be the exception, not the rule, when engineering enterprise can be wholly executed withinnational boundaries. To prepare engineers for the complex, and often mysterious, climate ofinternational design and engineering, a new facet to the design curriculum at Princeton is in theprocess of being developed.
