different personnel in the day-to-day research activities, including a number of post-graduate and under-graduate students.This is to be expected given that one of academia’s key aspirations regarding collaborativeventures is the provision of industrially relevant, “real world” research project s for studentsand the exposure of students to industry in preparation for their future careers. A recentreport by the Business-Higher Education Forum (BHEF) 16 in the US has stated that, for thisreason, “graduate students can enhance or impede a collaboration, but they are almostalways used”. However, given that there is considerable evidence in the literature ofsignificant problems arising from fundamental differences between academia and industry, itseems

exposurewill motivate increasingly larger numbers of U.S. students particularly to do an experienceabroad during their undergraduate years. Additionally, as the standards, practices and processes,become more common throughout the world it will make it easier to develop internationalcooperative partnerships, exchange course credits and embark upon distance learning as amodality so as to insure lifelong learning independent of where an individual chooses to pursuetheir career or life. As a result, we see the need for a global experience as early as possible in theeducational program increasing, and the ease with which this can become accomplishedincreasing as well. This hopefully will lead to a time when more then half of the undergraduateengineering

Continued efforts will be made to integrate various disciplineperspectives into the capstone design experience. It is felt that not only will this improve thelearning for the engineering students but also provide the opportunity to introduce the engineer’sviewpoint to students outside the discipline. Some compromise between the two corporatecultures considered herein seems to be best suited for the students at Notre Dame, and this maybe institutionally dependent. Providing freedom that allows

stakeholdersAnd I think especially the way that this course fits into that junior spring semester where you're really in the meat of starting to get a full understanding of “what does a major in EMSE mean?” and “what do you want to do with it?” puts it in a great spot where your gears are starting to turn about where you want to start your career trajectory and you're able to, if you want, like my group did, which was tailoring our project towards those interests. So I think that was a major avenue for creativity. I think the second part that was also big, especially for us, was when it came to doing the analysis and doing the model building and the MCDA…While “defining what your system is” and “doing the

for thepolicies to work as intended, community college students must choose a major andtransfer institution early in their college careers to mitigate the potential for credit loss.In their analysis of 34 statewide articulation agreements, Taylor and Jain (2017) found thateven though the agreements facilitate the transfer of credits from the associate of science(AS) and associate of arts (AA) degrees to be able to be used for a bachelor’s degree, thefocus tends to be on general education core courses and not the program major-specificcourses. In engineering programs, the major-specific courses are highly sequential, somissing a course or taking a class that does not meet transfer criteria could set transferstudents back in their progress to a

Instructors can draw parallels between different types of problems and show how the problem-solving techniques can be applicable beyond a single class.

Students need to be trained to identify and resolve such conflicts in an indepen-dent manner to be successful not only during their initial Software Engineering careers butalso throughout their professional lives. To that end, we designed this learning activity as anincremental, semester-long practice assignment.After clarifying different aspects of the application domain through a few initial meetingswith the clients, the students were given a lab assignment to create domain dictionaries12for the system.

Howeveranticipated funding to support this effort did not materialize, so a rigorous evaluation has not yetbeen performed. Additionally, the desire to draw any clear conclusions regarding itseffectiveness is also hampered by the small sample size. To date, only four cohorts – a total of84 students including those who are currently enrolled – have taken this class. And since thestudents from the first cohort have yet to graduate, the full impact of this pedagogy on theiracademic careers is just now being assessed.
