AB  - The research paper addresses the existing gap between employers’ expectations and the competencies of college graduates. According to recent reports, there is an increasing need to adopt new methodologies in teaching to help students improve their career readiness.  Contemporary requirements to engineering workforce, besides the core discipline skills, include proficiency in complex open-ended problem solving, interdisciplinary collaboration, and management and leadership skills. 

The proposed methodology is based on a role-play simulation of a workplace situation. This approach has been used in many disciplines, but not in the engineering management programs, such as Industrial Management, Operations Management, and Supply Chain Management. A pilot study was conducted to test the proposed methodology. We integrated three different classes within one undergraduate program. Students from these classes participated in the simulation as employees of different companies-partners of one supply chain. Students played roles of members of different departments in a company, including the departments' and company’s leaders. 

Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected and analyzed to evaluate the project outcomes and to assess the students learning outcomes. The paper will highlight the methodology of the teaching approach, how it helps to achieve better learning outcomes for both core and soft skills, and how students perceive an effectiveness of this teaching approach.
