These cases probe some of the shifts that have taken place in engineeringeducation on both sides of the Atlantic in response to calls from professional policymakers andeducators for technical education to include the development of professional and interpersonalskills, and consideration of the broader social context of technical work. Collectively, these fourcase studies also illustrate how intentional, carefully-scaffolded learning experiences incollaborative project-work and design lay the groundwork for our students to continue to developas engineering leaders after graduation.IntroductionFor at least the last fifteen years, the engineering education community has engaged in thedevelopment of a suite of

Leadership behaviors were reported by students usingthe Competing Values Framework which focuses on student behaviors in four orientations:Collaborate, Create, Control, and Compete. The results show that there were some significantdifferences among self-perceptions at the beginning, middle, and end of the class, especially inthe Create, Control, and Compete leadership orientations. Differences in self-perception amongmen and women were more prominent in the Create orientation at the beginning of the coursewith women starting lower but nearly matching men at the end of the course.

Students who possess the ability to solve technical problems, manage budgets, andapply basic business principles in an effort to develop a product or solution may become adeptengineering managers. However, students who can inspire a team to complete and deploy productsand solutions so that the whole team’s productivity is greater than the sum of the expertise of eachindividual team member can become engineering leaders.

Society for Engineering Education, 2020 Military Leadership for Engineers: A Comprehensive Look at Leadership from Army Doctrine to Engineering Course WorkAbstractEngineers and engineering educators realize that engineering is a team effort and leadership isinherent to a team’s success. Engineering project completion from ideation to implementationrequires engineers to provide influence in an often-complicated group of multi-disciplinaryprofessionals. In other words, leading is inherent to success as an engineer. ABET recognizes thisreality with student outcome number five where students must demonstrate, “an ability to functioneffectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative

of Georgia [12].The current approach was motivated by two primary goals: 1. Provide this education and training to all engineering students in the major without requiring additional courses. 2. Provide this education and training within the context of their team engineering capstone projects to improve their ability to apply what they have learned.These goals highlight perhaps the two main differences between explicit and non-explicit ELEprograms. The former programs are a separate course of study with the benefit of being muchmore rigorous, thorough and resulting in a certificate or minor, but at the cost of more selectparticipation and loss of elective courses as well as greater institutional expense. The latterprograms can

betweenengineers’ professional and organizational work values, it is not possible to neatly dichotomizetheir careers using mutually exclusive tracks. Nearly a quarter of the sample valued technicalAND managerial orientations, while another quarter scored low on both orientations.More recently, a small but growing body of literature has begun to highlight a wider range ofengineers’ workplace realities. For example, Tremblay and his colleagues surveyed 900engineers in Quebec, Canada in the early 2000s and found multiple, divergent career paths—technical, managerial, project-based, hybrid and entrepreneurial [8]. Compared to engineers onthe two traditional paths, they found that project managers and those on hybrid paths quicklyreached a pay plateau, and

In literature, leadership theories anddefinitions are often categorized into different models or styles. Within these vast arrays oftheories and models, there is an extensive amount of literature on defining leadership. Forexample, a thorough review of 160 articles defining leadership provided a detailed integrativedefinition of leadership that is over 1600 words [11]. Their definition of leadership contains 90variables that make up the whole of leadership, which provides a detailed view on the breadthand scope of

program, they developed an action-learning project that was carried out in their organizations to test their leadership capability andcapability for solving real issues within their organization. Finally, they left the graduateprogram with a plan for continuing their leadership journey beyond the university and into theirfuture. Students worked in learning groups to support one another and actively coached eachother on their progress. Many commented: ‘this was my first time to truly assess myself in somany different dimensions and really put a plan in place to become the kind of leader I want tobe’. It was exciting to watch their leadership capabilities emerge and grow.In the survey of alumni conducted for this paper, an ongoing effort to track
