problems is significantly high. As for DB, the owner hires one single entity that servesas both the contractor and designer, allowing a single point of responsibility, contractor’s earlyinvolvement in design, and faster delivery [2, 3]. This setting dictates, though, a new set of skillsthat needs to be acquired by both engineers and contractors due to the change in their typicalstandard roles.With the evolving nature of the construction industry, there is yet still limited research directlyfocusing on investigating the interaction of students from different technical areas during theircollege education, and on fostering a collaborative environment, which could prepare futureprofessionals for the increasingly high level of interaction required by

focus shifted to having ASEE student chapter membersserve as clients in support of their engineering outreach activities in local middle schoolclassrooms. For 2016, the instructor collaborated with the Ohio Northern University EducationPlacement Office to recruit local fourth and fifth grade teachers as clients. In this case, studentteams worked on augmenting lesson plans to be delivered later that academic year.Unfortunately, working with practicing educators had a major drawback: the lack of directinteraction between clients and student teams due to the teachers’ busy work schedule. Toaddress the shortcoming, clients have been recruited since 2017 from a group of educationmajors enrolled in a gamification course offered by one of the authors

a factory that processed chemicals tomake dye, or that others grew up using a multi-stage cooking process, not unlike distillation. Byunderstanding these specific experiences, we can make chemical engineering more relatable tothe students who are least likely to persist.This approach has been shown to be effective in engineering education. For instance, Mejiaidentified Latinx high school students’ funds of knowledge tied to the engineering design process[2], [41], [42], [43]. He found that students were able to build on their everyday experiences toaddress community problems. He also showed that students used professional skills, such ascommunication, collaboration and project management to reach design solutions. This approachalso enhanced
