industrial practice to slow down the depletion of energy resources and subsequentenvironmental impacts. Achieving these goals would be a complex gradual process and requires aparadigm shift in product and process design. In the academia, this awareness underscores need forreforming curriculum so that graduates of programs are ready to lead these changes in real life practices.National Science Foundation funds projects to update engineering curriculum for comprehensive teachingof energy utilization in different undergraduate programs. Among them, the process intensification project[3] integrated energy efficiency and safety in several engineering courses.

4.324.2emphasize an analytical approach.5 The underlying assumption seems to be that students wouldlearn the necessary thinking skills for creativity, teamwork, and communication if they participatein a semester- or year-long design project or if the curriculum contained a certain number of hoursof design content. The end result is that industry has been spending millions of dollars teachingtheir employees the foundational skills (such as creative thinking and teaming) needed for innova-tive conceptual design and problem solving in a global context.Our vision was to address this need by teaching these skills explicitly and then integrating themexplicitly into the design process. Our aim was to demonstrate how creative problem solving,teamwork, and

The primary teaching objective of Physics II is todevelop student's skills in creating, validating and applying models that describe physicalphenomena.In the final quarter of the unit, students work in groups to complete a final project that involvesconducting an experiment in the Physics laboratories. Each group selects one experiment from aset of five options, all of which are based on concepts covered in the theoretical classes.

To address this gap, we have developed a new researchagenda that specifically investigates the school-to-work transition (STW) of undergraduate engineeringstudents. The aim of this project is to analyze and map the existing literature on this topic through a scopingreview (ScLR). A scoping review is a type of literature review designed to systematically explore and map thebreadth of available evidence on a specific topic (Samnani et al., 2017). It identifies key concepts, researchgaps, and the variety of study designs within a field (Grant & Booth, 2009). For

It was established that interested students would need to have completed the departmentalIntroduction to UCD course (or equivalent) as a prerequisite for enrolling in this class. The course was set up as a mixture between a seminar-style and project-based structure, with daily readingsbeing due before the start of the class followed by in-class discussions and a short section of class periods beingdedicated to group work.

Moreover, it is the responsibility of theentire control engineering community to undertake this reform and to develop curricular materialsto support it." The reason for the need is that "most engineering curricular provide opportunity forundergraduates to be exposed to control engineering through only a single course… with a focusprimarily on analysis and design of linear time-invariant systems.

Students intheir third and fourth years in an engineering curriculum, particularly at a small institution, areoften scheduled together with their cohort. All mechanical engineering students often take thesame classes, and conversely, all electrical engineering students often take the same classes.When allowing for work, research projects, and extracurricular activities, these classes may notbe scheduled in a way that allows students to easily work together on their capstone projects. Ifmulti-disciplinary collaboration is desired, departments must be flexible and communicate withone another to ensure that classes are scheduled accordingly.V.

There are a variety ofdifferent surveys that have been shown to address EM in undergraduate students, one of which iscalled the Engineering Student Entrepreneurial Mindset Assessment (ESEMA) [16], which hasbeen shown to have both validity and reliability [17].Due to the nature of most EM studies, survey data is often only gathered for one class level suchas during the first year or senior year [4, 6, 8, 18-20].
