National Research Council3 criticized undergraduate engineering curricula for notreflecting the shifting needs of the engineering profession by saying that these curricula are“lacking the essential interdisciplinary character of modern design practice” (p. 4). As a result,NRC claimed, engineering graduates are poorly prepared to utilize “scientific, mathematical, andanalytical knowledge in the design of high-quality components, processes, and systems”. TheABET Engineering Criteria (earlier called Engineering Criteria 2000) reinforce theseperspectives as has the National Science Foundation in the last decade.4Curricular reform efforts have focused on developing new paradigms for engineering education,including an emphasis on active student learning

However, with a rapidly evolving societal footprint, demonstratingunique scientific and engineering skill sets may no longer be sufficient to foster strong impactsand long-lasting value to society.Our case study discusses approaches to expand our graduate curriculum by introducingentrepreneurial and business competencies to its traditionally strong scientific and engineeringcore.

Today, academic programs across the world strive for ABETaccreditation as it certifies the academic rigor and high-standard of the program, as well asprofessional preparedness of program graduates for the competitive global workforce requirements[1, 2]. While ABET accreditation is a highly sought-after affair, it appears as a daunting task tomost academic programs, especially when the personnel in charge of

In particular, the program is a Capstone Design 2-semester course thatadditionally has design and build criteria as a requirement. Completion of this project is arequirement for graduation, and students usually take the capstone design course in their senioryear. Because this course is within the Engineering and Computer Science curriculum of thecollege, however, many of the topics that the students are required to learn are well outside oftheir typical course requirements. In this paper, we detail the approach to having undergraduatestudents research and master multiple technology areas and then apply them

Florman defines engineering as the “art or science of making practicalapplication of the pure sciences.”1 By this definition, we can see that students ofengineering need to learn at least two disciplines: 1) “the pure sciences” and 2) “practicalapplication” of these sciences. Combine these two necessities with the imperative fromnearly every employer that engineers must learn communication skills, and we have quitea wealth of information to teach our students in four (or increasingly five or six) years. Inorder to meet each of these goals, we must have a concerted, self-reflective teachingstrategy.Here is where James Britton, et al. enter the picture, because their study TheDevelopment of Writing Abilities2 illuminates students’ learning
