leadership aligns withtraditional, vertical leadership (one leader at the top of an organization), they are less likely toself-identify as a leader or to identify their colleagues as leaders [5]. Furthermore, manyengineering faculty do not feel prepared to teach leadership to engineering students [6]. Yet,Knight & Novoselich [7] found that students believed leadership education more impactful whenit was taught within required curriculum, leaving broad opportunity for integrating leadershipdevelopment concepts into the required courses taken by engineering students. Plus, leadership isbest taught in context, such as in a group setting where the group shares a set of goals [7]. Designcourses provide a prime opportunity for students to integrate

While the intent of these capstone coursesis to provide students with a means of applying and integrating core concepts within theirdiscipline to a complex problem, the importance of using these courses as a “training ground” forintroducing, practicing, and refining team-centric, professional skills that will be critical forstudents’ future career success can not be understated.

The loose structure andstudent-focused characteristics of these non-traditional learning sites fosters this studentautonomy in a more viable way than traditional learning sites can offer.26 Another explanationfor the strength of observed student autonomy might be the authenticity of the engineeringproblems students work with, an authenticity that is typically missing in traditional learningsites.1 These non-traditional learning experiences offers students “navigational flexibility” withan inflexible engineering curriculum, which in turn offers an opportunity for students to valuethe larger contributions and impact of their learning experiences beyond simply attaining agrade.1Although it is evident that self
