Bob Rhoads works in engineering education research, focusing on how multidisciplinary capstone design courses (the final team-based design projects engineering students complete before graduation) are structured, taught, and experienced by students. Recent work examines topics like students' sense of belonging, teaching technical communication skills, incorporating entrepreneurial mindset training, and managing industry-sponsored design projects. This research is aimed at improving how engineering programs teach practical design and professional skills to students from different engineering disciplines working together.
Publication activity was minimal from 2017-2019, then became more active starting in 2020, with a noticeable increase in output during 2023-2025.
