Abstract
This paper outlines the continuous improvement enhancements of a two-semester multidisciplinary capstone program tailored for senior students within the School of Engineering Technology. These courses revolve around collaborative teamwork and focus on the development of innovative solutions for industry-sponsored projects. The overarching goal of these courses is to facilitate a seamless transition for students into their professional careers. One area that students often struggle with is developing professional skills (including communication and teamwork), which are required components evaluated in ABET accreditation and are necessary for graduates as they begin and progress across their careers. The Plan-Do-Check-Act continuous improvement process was used to develop, deploy, and evaluate a series of interventions to enhance the overall Capstone Education experience. This design case will particularly focus on interventions related to fostering professional skills.
