Engineering Education, 2023 GIFT: Maximizing first-year students’ ‘least effort’ information gathering habits using Information Foraging TheoryIt has widely been reported that engineers use a ‘least effort’ approach to meeting theirinformation needs.[1,2] While some have translated this as some kind of intellectual laziness,one should rather think of it as an approach embedded in efficiency. Engineers want to find justenough information to be able to make a reliable decision and then get on with their project. Thisis in contrast to the typical research-based approach to information gathering in academia, wherecomprehensiveness is more valued. By tapping into the values underlying the least effortapproach, however, one can make the case

and related fields inthe last few years. Industrial and systems engineering (ISE) and supply chain management(SCM) online programs are among the fastest growing online programs. This paper includes asurvey of some current teaching trends and study plans from top ISE and SCM online graduateprograms. There is a common ground between ISE and SCM. In general, there are some similarcourses in the two fields and an overlap in the study plans; this is more obvious in theundergraduate level. This paper introduces a comparison between the ISE and SCM onlineprograms at the master’s degree level. The survey of this study can be used to develop a graduateonline curriculum for an up-to-date program that combines ISE and SCM.KeywordsEngineering Education
