The following learning attitudes are instilled into each course, and expected to stay with the graduates throughout their career.
- Approach problems from the real world environment perspective, as the textbook environment is limiting.
- Have a vision and implement fundamental principles for dramatic, long-term improvements, more than dealing with day-to-day operations' efficiency.
- Seek systematic solutions, rather than reactive adjustments to individual components.
- Be accustomed to working in dynamic environments.
- See and form problem statements from ambiguous data and make decisions under uncertainty.
- Know that problem identification without proposing alternatives is simply complaining. And it will take concrete detail and good communication skills to convince others that the problem merits your proposed solution.
- Seek to continually enhance, team-building, leadership, and communication skills.
