Several studies have investigated frameworks or systems that guide such decisionmaking in design [20-22], design self-efficacy or the ability to complete a design task due to beliefin their ability to succeed [23-26], and preparedness to tackle technical and non-technicalchallenges of the project [27,28]. Other aspects of engineering design that students learn throughcapstones include systems engineering, ethical concerns related to their design, and professionalresponsibility.In addition to advancing engineering design and decision-making abilities (so-called “hard”skills), students also

I am confident in this path because of powerful educationalexperiences in my own life that have reoriented me - for example, an experience during a“work week” at Highlander that challenged me to viscerally shift my relationship withwork. While it is difficult for me to articulate, the experience of breaks from work incommunity was so powerful that it began to break down the engineering-capitalist-protestant work ethic so deeply ingrained in me

Broadly, studies of student engagement have oftenexamined relationships between a student’s educational experiences and the outcomes of interest,finding that, in general, higher engagement was linked to gains in outcomes such as learning andpersistence [2], [3]. In particular, engagement in co-curricular settings, or experiences outside theclassroom, has been linked to the development of several technical and professional outcomesfor engineering students such as leadership, ethical decision making, teamwork, andcommunication [4]–[9]. Beyond those outcomes, co-curricular engagement has also been linkedto outcomes such as self-efficacy and a sense of belonging, which can improve retention andpersistence in engineering

There are many definitions of leadership and lists of skills, knowledge, and abilitiesexpected of leaders. Bowman and Farr [4] describe a leader as “someone who can influence anorganized group toward accomplishing its goals.” They emphasize that the literature supportfour key leadership traits: communication, teamwork, cultural awareness, and ethics.There are various leadership models and debates about what constitutes leadership.
