professional skills that supportbuilding social capital is a critical component for engineering curricula that welcome and retainthese students in engineering.National Association for Colleges and Employers (NACE) has developed key competencies for acareer- ready workforce (2022). Social capital is interwoven into all eight competencies: career& self-development, communication, critical thinking, equity & inclusion, leadership,professionalism, teamwork and technology (NACE, 2022). In this study, we focused on a fewcritical communication skills for building and maintaining social capital. According to ASEE’s2020 Survey for skills gaps in recent engineering graduates, only 49% of respondents felt veryprepared in communication skills upon

Students at Rowan University design and build a bench-scale version of this powertrain over the course of five semesters.IntroductionOne of the most exciting innovations in automotive technology is the development andrealization of the hybrid-electric powertrain. The most commercially successful hybrid vehiclehas been the Toyota Prius; a schematic diagram of the Toyota Hybrid System is shown in Figure1 [1].Students at Rowan University design and fabricate a bench-scale version of the THS over thecourse of five semesters, as a way of integrating the Mechanical Engineering curriculum
increasingly employed over the years asproviding a means to overcome the shortfalls of traditional “chalk and talk” delivery of engineering content.Engineers in their profession must not only be technically excellent in the fundamentals of their discipline,but they are also in an environment which is full of uncertainty, has a series of competing demands andethical dilemmas, necessitates excellent communication skills to work across multiple disciples and requireskeeping up with continual changes to technology and the workplace. In recognition of the ways in whichthe traditional approaches were not preparing students for success in this environment, in 2003, Mills &Treagust [1] defined six critical issues that needed to be addressed in changing
