Then the experiential learningcoming from open discussions, making deep, meaningful connections, and dispute managementin classes and dorms all significantly contribute to shaping them as responsible future citizens.Students learn not only from the faculty but from their peers. They learn about themselves, theiridentities, their interest, their character, school pride, conflict resolution, emotional intelligence,and a whole host of things. However, even with all its benefits, this residential experience is notaccessible to all groups of students due to its high price tag

But, as with Grand Challenges, our call goes beyond enhancing engineeringeducation in order to spur innovation and grow economies. Humanists and social scientists,management and entrepreneurship scholars, and the creative and fine arts all have something tooffer to engineering education.ConclusionWe share the enthusiasm of many engineers and engineering educators in redirecting engineeringenergies toward grand-challenge problems. But we also see these problems as an opportunity torethink the nature of engineering and recast the relationship between engineering and society. A

Student Perceptions and Attitudes Towards Engineering Design in Work-Integrated Learning Contexts1 IntroductionTo continue enhancing student learning, many institutions are implementing work-integratedlearning programs (WIL) to aid in the development of work-ready graduates [1]. WIL integratesacademic studies with experiences within a workplace or practice setting [2]. These experiencescan take many forms including collaborative research projects, apprenticeships, co-operativeeducation, entrepreneurship, field placements, internships, professional placements, servicelearning, or work experiences. WIL programs are very common in undergraduate engineeringprograms and have more recently expanded to graduate programs

].For the fourth approach, a center for entrepreneurship can exist at many universities for studentsto gain EML outside of the classroom [7, 8]. However, this requires students to invest time inextracurricular activities outside the classroom. Thus, this can be an obstacle to many engineeringstudents, including those with a rigorous coursework load and/or personal and financialobligations. Thus, it will not be a practical option for many students.A fifth approach for students is to enroll in entrepreneurship-focused minors and advanceddegrees, which now exist at several universities. However, this also requires students to spendadditional time, money, and resources to enroll in such programs outside of their engineeringdegree of interest.For
