labor again tomorrow, they get even richer and even richer. So it's in their interest to make sure you think your work is de-political.”Maria similarly described a separation of engineers from the moral and ethical consequences oftheir work and how that separation benefits corporate interests: “… [to] face [engineers] with the thought that, you know, what they're doing actually has consequences when you consider them, they're gonna say ‘that's not my job. I'm just the engineer, that's management, that's business, that's something else.’ Because really, they're there to do this very specific thing. And the fact is, um, if you were to try to get them involved in all these other things, it's going to take

The course meets twice aweek for two hours each and relies heavily on team-based, hands-on activities and projects tohelp students learn the course material. Additionally, the course uses a flipped classroomapproach, where students watch assigned videos or read selected chapters from the textbookprior to attending class and spend most of class time
