Current Challenges in Engineering Education:
- Fostering the soft skills (communication, interpersonal skills, ability to work in teams, leadership potential) while students learn technical skills.
- Improving the recruitment and retention of women and minority students by showing students early on how engineering is beneficial and critically relevant to society.
- Developing applications of technology to improve student learning.
- Increasing the number of US undergraduate engineering students who continue on to graduate school in engineering.
