Abstract

Learning that occurs throughout a person's life, sometimes referred to as "lifelong learning," is an issue that has to be addressed, and here is where lifelong learning comes into play. This is because students have the opportunity to improve both their abilities and their knowledge by participating in ongoing educational opportunities. The purpose of this research is to investigate the available literature on the benefits of instilling in undergraduate engineering students mental habits that will serve them well not just during their time in school but also after they graduate and enter the workforce. In order to conduct an analysis of the data gathered from this qualitative research of content, content analysis is utilised. In particular, it achieves this goal through synthesising and analysing pertinent resources in order to assist students in the development of lifetime skills that are required for professional success. During the process of assessing the data for the current study, the researchers make use of a method called thematic coding to assist them in determining the topics that are pertinent to this investigation. Upon doing an analysis of the data, it was found that there were three (3) overarching themes that emerged from the review of the articles. The analysis of the data made this point very evident. These include projects like "Encouraging Intrapersonal Communication among Engineering Students," "Improving Key Competencies for Future Undertaking," in addition to "Development of Creativity and Innovation Among Engineering Students." These three subjects are all interconnected in some way with the education of engineers. The study also looks into what could happen in the future in light of the data that has been acquired.
