Student andprofessional skills were described in the survey as “study skills, ethics, communication, etc.”Technical skills were described as “CAD, programming, statics, etc.” Safety included “personalsafety, occupational, health, and process safety hazards”. The fraction of class time spent on thedifferent topics was remarkably the same from introduction to engineering courses tointroduction to discipline courses.

The studywas approved by the U of S Behavioural Research Ethics Board. Volunteers completed a “pre-survey” that examined knowledge, skills, and attitudes regarding trusses, before trusses had beentaught in the classroom. Participants were then randomly assigned to one of three groups: no lab,regular lab, and TrussVR© lab. All participants then attended 2 weeks of in-class lectures ontrusses, frames, and machines, as they normally would. During this time, the “no lab” group didnot complete an experimental lab on trusses

The program was developed from the ground up to not be anengineering discipline-specific program, but to provide students training with an emphasis onengineering design, systems thinking, and sustainability while also providing a strong foundationin engineering science3. The vision of the program is to produce cross-disciplinary engineerversatilists. At the heart of the program is the six-course engineering design sequence whichprovides instruction on design theory (thinking, process, methods, tools, etc.), sustainability,ethics, team management, and technical communication (both oral and written), whileincorporating

As the National Academy of Engineering (NAE) points out in its report: “In its broadest sense,technology is the process by which humans modify nature to meet their needs and wants.
