These educationalopportunities can be classified into several categories: engineering management, systemsengineering, engineering entrepreneurship, and leadership, internship, and other multi-disciplinary programs. Most of these programs are designed to introduce engineers to thebusiness world through courses, project teams, and interaction with business enterprises andbusiness leaders. Most schools also offer minors or individual courses designed to introducestudents of all majors to technology and its impact on business. Overall, schools try to offer avariety of courses and extracurricular activities that allow students to gain a well-roundededucation

First,this group was slightly more adaptive than both the general U.S. population (mean of 95) andU.S. engineers and managers (means of 97), although the difference was not large in either case.Still, a difference of only 5 points between the means of two groups is noticeable over time

Therefore, it is necessary for managers in engineering companies to possess skillsand knowledge required for preparing for and responding to EDCs.Despite increasing risks of EDCs worldwide, educational efforts embodied in either curriculumof a college degree or related courses remain very limited.
