Over the past four years, teamwork surveys for thisproject have been implemented and analyzed. Iterations of this survey have been revised todevelop a shorter and non-project specific survey instrument that measures the effectiveness ofteamwork.

The careers pursued by engineering graduates aredefined by technical issues, pressures involving cost of idea/product development, time tomarket, market share, and project profitability. If the latter items aren’t part of one’s careerthinking, that career is in great jeopardy because one is pursuing one’s career as if it is a hobby.Would you as the owner or manager of a company pay someone to pursue their hobby? Probablynot. Others won’t fund your hobby either. Engineers need to contribute to the revenue stream,business plan, and leadership. How is that being taught in the typical engineering curriculum?The rapidly changing scenario playing itself out on an

Somestudies focus on only one of these dimensions. Because engineers always work to have apositive impact on our society [21], programs try to embed attention to societal and culturalaspects of contexts in engineering curricula. Mikic and Grasso [22] found that using sociallyrelevant design projects throughout the curriculum achieved course objectives of learning theimportance of working in teams and greater consideration of the societal impact of engineeringpractice.

LearningSince undergraduate research is inherently a type of PBL, focus will now turn to a discussion ofthis topic. PBL is, itself, a form of experiential learning, where students learn by immersion and‘doing’. PBL presents a challenge or problem for students to solve or a question for them toanswer. In research projects, this challenge or question is the thesis statement of the researchproject.PBL is widely used due to its demonstrable effectiveness. It has been shown to work acrossmultiple educational levels [19]–[24] and in numerous disciplines. Example disciplines includecomputer science [25] and the aerospace [26], computer [27], electrical [28], and mechanical [29]engineering disciplines.
