摘要：Historically, Canadian faculties of engineering have excelled at developing the technical competencies oftheir students, but have been less successful at developing their communication, negotiation, and relationship building skills [4]. In this paper we discuss findings from the first phase of a large scale, mixed-methods study of engineering leadership. In particular, we are investigating:(1) how engineers contribute to leadership in engineering intensive organizations, (2) the defining characteristics of the leader-engineer; and (3) how we can use these findings to augment curriculum and instruction in engineering education.
