It is inspired by the realization thattraditional engineering does not adequately harness professional skills in its problem-solvingrepertoire. Holistic engineering asks engineers to look outward, beyond the fields of math andscience, in search of solutions to entire problems.

Independent study projects represent a significantstrain on that balance. The Department of Civil & Mechanical Engineering is currently in themidst of a considerable curriculum adjustment. One of the many benefits of this change is themove towards an increase in the number of Firstie (Senior) Year engineering electives.

Control is a subject taught to allengineers except for civil, and yet seems like an island of its own.

The industry requires engineering graduates with skills that meet the current industrial needs. It is essential in engineering schools to focus on industrial needs, as that increases the alignment level between industry and academia. In other words, the more universities know and apply in curriculums the industrial objectives, the more they are helping students to enhance their skills and get trained on what they will face in the industry. Hence, if the lack of capstone design project completion and low student motivation remained the same, it would
