In the integrated approach, all of these skills are coveredprogressively in a series of courses. Examples of the integrated approach are those at theVirginia Tech's Materials Science and Engineering Department3 and the University ofQueensland’s Project Centred Curriculum in Chemical Engineering for the third and fourthyear students4.The communication skills course in our program is a stand-alone class, nevertheless, it hasbeen developed as part of our effort to

This study indicates that a combinede-portfolio and micro-credentialing platform could benefit students by a) providing students witha tool to reflect on and showcase their experiences, b) matching students with upper-class andalumni mentors in career pathways they are interested in, and c) providing them with curatedlists of on-campus and experiential opportunities and micro-credentials that would support theircareer pathways.IntroductionEvery student’s experience through engineering school culminates in different results -- students’future pathways range

Early exposure to innovative product developmentprocess and tools is shown to be effective in getting used to the product development process1,23.Knowledge in product development is also essential for entrepreneurship, which is a majorinterest area for engineering technology students1,4,15,24. Due to the multi-disciplinary nature ofETID and encouraged by the successful implementation by Birmingham et al2, a particularinterest in multi-disciplinary product development is identified.With the unique position of ETID and the review of literature, the team quickly selected productinnovation and development as the focus of the high

Experience from six areas issummarized. Case studies are used in class assignments for detailed analysis. Advancedconcept development projects are used, involving students at all levels in classes and research,to provide guidance on how to proceed with innovation in the face of large uncertainty andskepticism.
