Have they been taught to listen to members of the public and value the differentforms of expertise that diverse community members offer? While engineering, as a discipline,prioritizes public welfare, engineering curriculum often provides students with a technical skillset while neglecting to develop their aptitude in humanistic inquiry and critical listening.One pedagogical approach that encourages students to think through the complexities of serviceto the public good lies in community engagement projects.
