, there exists one significant drawback: fresh graduatesare unskilled at the process of representing real-world systems as idealized models that can besubsequently analyzed using theoretical textbook principles. This conclusion was based uponanecdotal feedback received from employers and freshly graduated engineers. This anecdotalfeedback was enough to initiate a more formal process to explore the transition from theclassroom to the real-world for an engineer or technologist.The capstone course, where students do projects with industry, attempts to fill in the voidbetween theory and practice. However, based upon feedback from fresh engineering graduates, itdoes not perform an optimum job of doing so since it is a single course taken during the
