Since the late 1990s engineering institutions internationally have adopted a graduate attribute focus for course accreditation. The research presented here is unique in using a role-based analysis of the relative significance of an extensive range of mechanical engineering attributes in Australian industries found to employ the greatest number of mechanical engineers. The significance of each attribute in each industrys core mechanical engineering roles are weighted according to the numbers of mechanical engineers employed in those roles. This is considered in the context of a study of the...
