AB  - Satisfying the Multiple Stakeholder Requirements of Engaged Scholarship: The Case ofIndustrial Distribution at Texas A&MEngaged scholarship seeks to bring academia and the corporate world closer together byfocusing on issues and problems that relevant. By their very nature, disciples such asengineering and business should be inherently engaged in these endeavors. Engineeringeducation is a complicated process with myriad stakeholders with various, and sometimescompeting, objectives and trade-offs. These objectives and their trade-offs often give rise to thesubordination of some objectives to others that are judged to be more important or core to aparticular school’s mission. If some objectives are not given enough emphasis then certainissues, such as the relevancy of coursework or of academic research may be called into question.Further, the inherent interconnectedness of the various stakeholders in the education processexhibits the properties of a complex system. This is clear through the interactions betweenadjustments in objectives and the non-linear behavior of the emergent system behavior fromsystem changes. The stakeholders in the process of engineering education are identified ascustomers of the system, and within this context, their various requirements for satisfaction areoutlined and contrasted. Certain inherent trade-offs between prioritizing different objectives arealso discussed. A framework for managing the various customer requirements in the engineeringeducation context is developed. This framework emphasizes focusing on the synergies betweenthe various customers’ requirements which can lead to superior system outcomes. The case ofIndustrial Distribution at Texas A&M University is presented as an example implementation ofthis framework.
