Engineering programs frequentlycontain team-based projects in courses that help students develop teamwork and managementskills for use in their professional careers. Helping students work with their peers for academicsupport is an important skill that most successful students develop over time. This develops thenecessary collaboration skills that today’s students need to possess post-graduation.Underclassmen also benefit by learning collaboratively from upperclassmen in their majors [4].Additionally, students retain a larger quantity and

was collected from eight undergraduate engineering students’sophomore, junior, and senior year, and data were analyzed in order to observe how engineeringstudents’ functional aptitude has progressed throughout a design-oriented undergraduateengineering curriculum with multiple points of exposure to functional thinking. Results showthat students’ competency with function does not improve as they progress throughout theirundergraduate career. That being said students did demonstrate some degree of systems thinkingin this study, but the growth of those skills over time remains ambiguous as FunSkill and its’corresponding scoring instruments were not explicitly generated to capture students’ systemsaptitude.

Finally, all freshman take threetwo-hour engineering courses that are designed to prepare students with a diverse set of skills aswell as to ensure that they can make the best possible decision when choosing engineeringmajors. From an extra-curricular standpoint, the students are given multiple opportunities to learnabout the different engineering disciplines and how they relate to different industry sectors. Infact, many students fall into the trap of directly relating their desire for a specific engineeringmajor to the industry sector that is really driving their interest. For example, a student may havean interest in a career with NASA so they immediately gravitate to aerospace
