The general (meta) competencies are skill sets that enable themto function globally, such as to work with others, function in systems and meet organizational demands,and transfer task-specific skills to new challenges or tasks they have not encountered before [18-19].Thus, our goal is to revolutionize our learning community to develop an intentional culture of reflection,wherein members (both students and faculty) develop dispositions of metacognition and self-regulation.The competencies required by future engineers vary from industry sectors and even companies in thesame sector.

The development of a vehicle prototype, which should be marketcompetitive, is an open-ended design problem that challenges students to explore and arriveat different design alternatives at both the vehicle system and component level. DOstudents learn in an order opposite to that of traditional education approaches, wherestudents search for answers, derive conclusions, make decisions, and justify designselections within managerial, social, economic, and engineering constraints.

Although, few researchers have examined the engineering contextdirectly, we highlight one example to illustrate the utility of the framework.Cech et al. [25] used professional socialization to argue that experiences that occur duringprofessional training, e.g. co-op or internship experiences, cause men and women to developdifferent confidence levels about participating in the engineering community.

Similarly,given the generally important role that faculty and teaching assistants (TAs) play in studentlearning as well as the importance of grades to undergraduates, the emergence of instructionalsupport and assessment as factors in the capstone design experience is also justified. Andfinally, the fourth factor, task value serves as an indication of students' motivation to participatein the ENGINE capstone experience. Task value draws from expectancy-value theory and hasbeen demonstrated to be a distinct contributor to academic engagement and effort [26, 27] aswell as educational and career aspirations [28].RQ2: Was there a difference in student perceptions

ARAP students would graduate on-schedule andahead of the curve.ARAP is designed to offer students the opportunity to “learn while they earn” and to:  Explore different professional positions related to their major and career interests before graduation.  Practically apply classroom knowledge and laboratory experiences in real-world problem-solving scenarios, preparing them for more advanced coursework and exciting careers of the future.  Better accomplish goals

In some cases this has also enriched the faculty members‟experience where the information gained subsequently found its way into the classroom as partof their teaching. It should be mentioned that the faculty members most receptive to taking partin these activities almost always have been those with industry experience and who already valueand share personal experiences with their students.

Personal relationships between the faculty member and managers/engineers at the host siteare developed; graduate students can become involved in a way that leads to a masters ordoctoral degree research topic; follow-on contracts and publishable results often benefit thefaculty visitor; new methods/technology introduced by the faculty visitor, and introductions toother faculty members with specific expertise, can benefit the industrial host.In contrast, most sabbatical leaves involve leaves of absence for

An early observation from one of the authors was howwilling most companies are to bring faculty and students into their facilities for tours andexplanations of their business. Through these visits, personal networks grow, along withindustry expertise, providing the individual growth and future opportunity.Transitioning from the corporate world to academia requires balancing risks and rewards for theinstructor, as well as the institution. Some risks are fairly obvious, whereas others are somewhathidden. A personal challenge overcome in both case studies was

It has also been noted that manystudents made their decision to leave an engineering major within the first two years, the periodduring which they are taking engineering prerequisites and before taking any (or many)engineering courses [2]. One of the potential reasons for this situation is that students in theirfirst two years are given little exposure to the many possibilities that an engineering career canoffer, while they are taking math and science courses taught outside of engineering departments.It suggests that few students-even those who have had some prior exposure to engineering-knowwhat engineers do, and this affects their commitment to

Without an intrinsic sense ofaccomplishment, there may be little incentive for a professional to donate their time. Theseinternal rewards must be supported by faculty through recognition and presentation of “letters ofappreciation” from the College.Faculty benefit through maintenance and upgrade of personal skills in the face of changingtechnology, having a pathway to keep course material current, developing a broader personalnetwork, and intrinsic rewards of providing a better student experience.4.
