Informed by both internal program evaluations of current and prior programs and externalassessments in the engineering education literature [1, 2], the review revealed that while therehad been significant progress made in diffusing engineering education innovations in first-yearengineering and in capstone design, change had been much slower in the middle years of thecurriculum. In particular, while certain workplace-relevant engineering skills such ascommunication, teamwork, design, ethics, and socio

For engineers, this at its highest level can bedescribed as technical problem solving. This has aptly focused engineering degree programs ondeveloping Problem Solving Skills in their curricula. At the same time, it’s been well recognizedthat engineers do not problem solve by themselves.
