This presentation discusses a curriculum-based approach to embed values, knowledge, skills from graduates’ understanding of the links with their own discipline and reflection on own interests, attributes and skills. As part of a multidisciplinary, cross-departmental unit for several MSc programmes in Mechanical, Electrical and Civil Engineering at the University of Bath, students work on a “Grand Challenge” (like a sustainability-related goal/challenge) of their own choice. Students research, integrate and evaluate principles and methodologies from multiple disciplines (Electronics, Mechanics, Chemistry, etc.) to come up with their own proposal/solution, blending students’ professional/employability skills with their own technical expertise.
