, a new need has emerged for a different broadly educated graduate than is often provided by a research-oriented Ph.D. program and one who has greater depth than a graduate at the master’s level. This need may be met by doctoral level programs having a strong design element. A degree of Doctor of Engineering may be granted if the institution does not wish to award the Ph.D. for such work. These programs will emphasize design or creative activities (as opposed to an intense research effort Ph.D.), considerable breadth of in- depth course work, perhaps including some humanities and economics, and significantly greater industrial involvement than has been general academic practice to date.

Infact, without self-confidence, it is difficult for a person to do any of these things.While there are all of these positive impacts of a high level of self-confidence, it is also possible tobecome over-confident, or to have a false confidence or bravado that is not based on truecompetence or mastery of one’s profession. If self-confidence becomes over-confidence, theengineer may lose the ability to accept criticism that improves the design or product. Thisbehavior may occur in design team meetings when engineers, in their zeal to promote and selltheir innovation, blind themselves to valid concerns or valuable modifications regarding theconcept or product that could make it even better.

This project-based learning course use of a gammaprototype surrogate shows having a positive impact in the teaching of keyconcepts regardless of instructor or time. Furthermore, students learning ofinnovative skills, prototyping, and design could improve their ability to tacklefuture difficult concepts. Application of such a course in either freshmen year orprior to their senior design could greatly benefit students.Further analysis would need to be conducted to look for differences in studentdesign challenges

impact andproductivity within their profession. Jensen et al. [14] conducted a bibliometric analysis andfound that scientists who were active in wider dissemination activities (industry partnerships oroutreach presentations) produced more scholarship than those who did not participate in widerdissemination activities. In fact, the most active researchers publish in traditional journals andthen share in at least two of the following ways: communicating via popular media, collaboratingwith industry, or teaching. For these reasons, we set out to determine if researchers generally,and engineers specifically, could find ways to more effectively communicate their researchfindings with the public in several different informal learning
