second year engineering students. Scott received his Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh, with a focus on global engineering education. His current research areas include cultural competency in engineering education, pedagogical inmoves through game-based and playful learning, and engineering ethics education. Scott has recently received funding through the National Science Foun- dation (NSF) to conduct research on the impact of game-based learning on the development of first-year students’ ethical reasoning, as well as research on the development of culturally responsive ethics edu- cation in global contexts. He is an active member of the Kern Engineering Entrepreneurship Network

is a “Call to Action” for collaborators. Proceedings of the 2022 ASEE North Central Section Conference Copyright © 2022, American Society for Engineering EducationIntroductionThe National Academy of Engineering identified ethical issues and responsibilities as the majorchallenges for engineers in the 21st century.1 Practicing engineers are expected to adhere to theNational Society of Professional Engineers’ Code of Ethics 2 and engineering students areexpected to “recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations andmake informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global,economic, environmental, and societal contexts.”3 The result was an

, if the design ends up in that spot.As with any engineering design, a code of ethics needs to be followed. The ASME code of ethicsstates that “Engineers shall hold paramount the safety, health and welfare of the public in theperformance of their professional duties” [2]. To follow this, the design must be safe and nothave the potential to cause harm to the users. The code of ethics also states that “Engineers shallconsider environmental impact and sustainable development in theperformance of their professional duties” [2]. The potential environmental impact has beenconsidered, and a positive impact would result from the reduction of cleaning supplies used aswell as less emissions from driving, as more students would be longboarding

Soft skill sets given in the table was broken intothree categories: defining yourself, being a professional, and practicing ethics. Table 3 not onlyinclude the items sketched out in the Four Pillars BOK but also helps students to understand theirown identity including self-motivation and -reflection as well as work ethics that is applicable toproblem solving and critical thinking of different sorts.

Throughout the semester, thestudents are expected to show evidence of significant individual contributions to the team efforts,consideration related to design’s effectiveness, material selection, ergonomics, safety, cost, effecton the environment, ethics, ease of production, etc. The course offers the perfect platform forimplementing the Engineering Unleashed’ s mission to graduate engineers with anentrepreneurial mindset (EM) and KEEN’s mission to teach technical skills while fosteringcuriosity, connections, and creating value [1], [2].As part of the course, all teams are required to make two presentations to their peers and thecourse instructor, and to submit a Project Proposal and a Final

The student must understand technology, its application, and potential consequences (PI_4_2). Project 1 measures the ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts (SO_4).• Select and implement basic and advanced methods of

, act with empathy,37 and use creativity and design for liberation throughtechnology integration. This process moves beyond theories and ethics into liberation praxis ofreflection and action.7 A liberatory education means students are flourishing and thriving, notjust surviving.Implications for Engineering EducationIn order to begin the ongoing process of pursuing a liberatory engineering education, I amcommitting to and suggest the following for fellow engineering educators: 1. Prioritize self-reflection: we need to make interrogating our positionality and assumptions part of our ongoing practice. Praxis is both reflection and action. Self reflection is the first step towards transformative action. Anti-oppression work is

The competition is held on a geographically local level withwinners advancing to the nationwide competition hosted by the National Robotics League.To ensure the survey was conducted in an ethical manner, all authors of this paper completed theCollaborative Institutional Training Initiative (CITI) as required by Robert Morris University’sInstitutional Review Board (IRB). The IRB then reviewed and approved the survey as outlined inAppendix 1 before it was sent to the BotsIQ program instructors along with the consent formgiven in Appendix 2. Those who received
