Lastly, another criticalfactor is that there was a commitment from the Industrial Engineering faculty members toenhance recruitment efforts and align with key feeder schools within the JCPS system,particularly for underrepresented minority students.The percentages by race of those freshmen students who declare industrial engineering as theirchoice are shown in Figure 5.

In today’s global economy, engineeringinnovation is recognized as a continuous, systematic needs-driven process, which is highlydependent upon the provision for lifelong learning, growth, and development of the nation’sgraduate engineers and technologists in industry beyond their entry-level undergraduatebaccalaureate preparation. Because of profound changes in engineering practice for real-worldinnovation, a transformation is underway in the U.S. Science and Engineering (S&E) innovationsystem.

Writing enables us to find out what we know—and don’t know—about whatever we’retrying to learn.”1 This presentation examines a variety of creative and successful strategies forincorporating written, oral, and visual communications into engineering classes. It discusseshow engineering and writing/communications teachers can collaborate in helping students tomaster simultaneously the technical subject matter and communications tasks. This talk alsoassesses potential obstacles to an integrated approach.Although communications exercises and instruction can enhance teaching and learning, how

One of her current projects, in collaboration with the McCombs School of Business, concerns risk-informed asset management for electric and nuclear power generation. The project addresses risk assessment, risk management, and reliability problems that arise in electric power generation. The research seeks to help industry officials make the best operational and executive management decisions by more accurately accounting for seemingly unpredictable issues such as outage duration and regulatory safety constraints, as well as uncertainty related to energy prices, mechanism failures, repair costs and other factors.Kendra Foltz-Biegalski

Teamwork skills are closely linked with communication, as it hasbeen shown that students can improve their communication skills by participating inmultidisciplinary teams (​Garcia Lorca et al.​ 2015). Collaboration with industry in designprojects, such as in the senior capstone design course, is one way in which universities areproviding students with proper communication training.

Additionally, engineering is a discipline dedicated totraining individuals to be adept problem solvers [3]. As Wognum et al. [4] have stated, “manyengineering problems can be characterized as large, complex, and ill-defined, also withunknown outcomes” (p. 754). For instance, integrating perspectives from engineering andsocial sciences is essential for tackling societal challenges. This growing complexitynecessitates a paradigm shift in engineering education to bridge gaps between classroomlearning and industry demands.
