effectiveness ofengineering education, recent engineering graduates were interviewed, and the results showedthat the majority of them felt that their education failed to impart the practical skills required fortheir jobs [8]. Additionally, other researchers ([9], [10], [11], [12], [13]) have also highlighted theinadequacy of engineering education in preparing students for engineering practice. Some studieshave even documented the distressing impact of this gap on recent graduates, leading them toseek alternative career paths ([14], [15]). In response to this issue, several researchers in the fieldof engineering education have emphasized the importance of experiential learning ([16], [17],[18], [19], [20]). In fact, ([19], [20]) has suggested that

The aims ofthe investigation were to stimulate a campus discussion about large language models in highereducation and career preparation, to expose students and faculty to content and questionssurrounding the ethical use of LLMs, and to generate questions and directions for futureresearch. We formulated questions for a survey to gauge undergraduate students’ knowledge andperceptions about the ethics and use of LLMs in academic coursework. One section includeddemographic questions about students’ majors, ages, academic years, and grade point averages,another asked student’s questions about their familiarity with the use of LLMs such as ChatGPTin academic settings and their views on ethical uses of LLMs in education.
