This is why such approaches are still prevalentin medical education after medical school and in graduate programs. However, the modernengineering faculty faced with large classrooms and brief educational experiences bracketed into15-week semesters or 10-week quarters cannot get to know each student well enough to facilitatea personalized mentoring approach.

How students get hands-on experience varies widely among colleges, programs,and individuals. A lot of programs make efforts to introduce hands-on approaches in their coursesthrough labs and project-based courses. The senior (capstone) projects are for most of theengineering programs the most comprehensive projects, asking the students to go from statingthe problem to formulating and designing a solution and to actually build and test the proposedsolution. Often, the senior projects are initiated from industry collaborations. Another way togain practical experience is to encourage and support

On the one hand,engineering curricula are slow to change, but on the other hand the target keeps moving. In the1990’s there was a sense that engineering education was out of touch with the actual practice ofengineering. In response, design has become a more prominent part of most engineeringcurricula. In recent years, globalization and the commoditization of many engineering functionshas lent an air of uncertainty to the direction that engineering education should go.
