摘要:In recent years, industries increasingly require graduate engineers that universities produce to have the ability to function in multidisciplinary teams. This requirement is tallied with engineering professional societies. Hence, the study of multidisciplinary collaboration practices in engineering service learning project among engineering students is studied. A multidisciplinary collaborative practice referred as occasions when two or more students in the different background of engineering learn with, from and about one another to facilitate collaboration in practice to solve a problem in community service. Therefore, the engineering service project was designed, namely as Multidisciplinary Engineering Service in Community (MESIC). MESIC has highlighted the product-based with creative and innovative elements the product-based with creative and innovative elements. MESIC model is designed at the core of the previous emerging service learning model together with multidisciplinary collaboration. This study provides empirical results through pre and post survey questionnaire using one group quasi experimental approached. The data was analyzed using Rasch Measurement Model. It explored the four outcomes of multidisciplinary collaboration (value and ethics (VE); team and teamwork (TT); communication (CC); roles and responsibilities (RR)). These findings of four outcomes via survey questionnaire show a positive impact on students before and after experiencing the MESIC program. It is part of the study to enhance and improve students' outcomes in multidisciplinary team.
