hand,students should try to develop brainstorming techniques andresearching skills. A major problem arises when students are not ableto take courses and have lower credits because there is aclash in timings of the different subjects. In addition, manymajor courses are just offered in one semester and studentshave to wait a year to take it if they dropped them. Thisslows their graduation and demoralizes them from studying.The PI administration should find solutions for them likeoffering online courses.

members from other majors and other engineeringdisciplines. One reason for this trend is that engineering educators as well as professionals fromindustry have recognized the fact that practicing engineers are required to work with coworkersand clients that have a variety of educational backgrounds. Experiential learning is beingencouraged in engineering education because it has been recognized that students engaged in thistype of learning have better retention of technical knowledge and are better able to apply whatthey have learned in college courses to real life situations after graduation 1-3. Furthermore,industry and academia have identified the need for the development of soft skills in engineeringstudents. Among these soft skills includes

Working in teams, students served in the specificroles of design engineer, construction contractor, project manager, and vendor.
