engineering faculty’s lack offamiliarity with non-ABET professional skills, like entrepreneurial mindset and cultural agility,the difficulty of making changes in technical classes, and the limitations in assessing professionalskills. The researcher aims for the recommendations derived from this pilot study to raiseawareness of professional skill development within engineering curricula, fostering collaborationwith industry, and stimulating further research into enhancing the engineering curriculum with afocus on these essential skills.IntroductionTo succeed in the 21st-century workplace, engineering graduates need more than technical skillsor risk losing their jobs to automation [1, 2]. Professional skills complement a technicaleducation and are part
Engineering Education, 2024 Exploring the Relationships between Artistic Creativity and Innovation Attitudes in Engineering StudentsAbstractThis research explored potential relationships between the innovation self-efficacy (ISE) ofengineering students and their artistic creativity and life experiences revealed on an ice-breakerassignment. In a community-building assignment, students were directed to introduce themselvesthrough cartoon monster drawings that communicated various personal attributes (such as thenumber of languages they speak, and the number of states visited). Previous research has foundthat multicultural experiences can shape feelings of self-efficacy concerning innovation andcreativity. This pilot study was
