In 2015 and 2016 Texas State University partnered with the IEEE Standards Education Program to design a one-day workshop demonstrating technical standards development. The interactive workshop includes short introductory lectures and case studies, presented by technical experts and leading standards developers from industry, and a table-top working group simulation to reach consensus on "standards" related to communication, transportation, and power.

advocate for the adoption of recommendations for mechanical engineering curricula with the goal of better preparing graduates to meet the demands of a changing professional environment. To that end the project analyzed the perspectives of over 1,400 engineering managers in industry, more than 1,100 recent mechanical engineering graduates, and mechanical engineering education leaders from 80 universities on how mechanical engineers should be educated to meet the current and future demands of a transforming profession.
