Machines and industrial facilities constantly grow in complexity due to increasedcustomer expectations regarding their purpose and flexibility [1]. Consumers desire features suchas automatic controls and voice recognition. Mechatronic devices are all around and effectiveindustry leaders will be those that understand other disciplines [2]. Many students are users ofthese devices and interested and motivated to take mechatronic courses, due to their hands-onand project based nature [3].Mechatronics courses, by

At LUC, this is possible because all27 U.S. Jesuit universities possess a core (general education) curriculum based on socialjustice. In 1974, Jesuit General Congregation (GC) 32 decided to take a more active role inalleviating poverty and injustice. In 2008, GC35 called on Jesuit universities “to promote studiesand practices focusing on the causes of poverty and the question of the environment’simprovement” [26, 27]. At the 12 U.S. Jesuit universities with ABET-accredited engineeringprograms, the mean number of core curriculum courses is 11 ± 2 courses.

Thecurriculum for this new program has an emphasis on “communication, collaboration, anddesign”. This paper presents an overview of the program curriculum and discusses challengesencountered and lessons learned in the program development and implementation to date.Highlights of the challenges faced include issues such as: attracting students to a new programwhere there are relatively few current examples to point to (in Canada) of well-established careerpaths, marketing lower year students of this new program to prospective coop employers

Industry 5.0 projects are complex, multidimensional, and fast-evolving, requiring criticalthinking and problem-solving abilities from engineers beyond their STEM foundation. Theengineers of

An alliance between the Church, government and parents is crucial to the survival of most state-assisted schools. The Church provides land to build on. The parents and the Church sponsor major projects such as building dormitories, science laboratories, classrooms, digging wells for water, and installation of solar electricity to enable night time study in the library, and to conduct science experiments if a laboratory is in existence.

Initially, we introduced such new items to asmall group of the Harvard College students, but as the demands for new experiments increased,it became difficult to have a thorough evaluation through the small sample of students. Wedecided to engage a different student body of diverse backgrounds by establishing a pre-collegiate program.
