Prior research haspointed to a talent gap in manufacturing industry (Javdekar et al., 2016). To that end, multipleinitiatives are taking place on different levels. For example, at the industry level, many initiativesare being taken by the companies to bridge this gap, such as upskilling the current workforcethrough continuing education (Nepal et al., 2019), or partnering with an academic institution indeveloping appropriate program or curriculum (Nepal et al., 2016; Seemakula et al., 2010).

rolein trade-off design.2.1.2 Electronic circuits labElectronic circuits lab requires students to build an AC-DC power supply that also incorporates aDC-DC converter in the form of a simple LDO shown in Fig. 2b. The converter in Fig. 2b uses aVz = 4.7 V zener diode that is used as a voltage reference generator. The design specifications aregiven in terms of output voltage, ripple constraints, load current requirements. The referencegenerator circuit is the same to the circuit shown in Fig. 2a and also follows very similar designmethodology. Since the reference generator circuit appears in a different context and studentfocus is on meeting design specifications, the connection to circuit shown in Fig. 2a is oftenmissed.
