.” This canon in itself is ablatant example of how NSPE seeks to propagate business professionalism through ethics,especially considering how overwhelmingly the clients and employers of engineers they areobliged to be faithful agents or trustees of are the state and large corporations. They claim that“experience has demonstrated, beyond any reasonable doubt, that an engineer with a union-minded attitude cannot and does not regard his relations with his employer as that of a faithfulagent or trustee.” The BER offers no support for this claim besides a vague reference to“experience” that falls apart when evidenced by the largely business unionist history ofengineering unions. Even taking their claim on face value, the orientation is not

both community partner and student outcomesIntroductionEngineering service learning or humanitarian engineering in the university setting has only beenaround since the early 2000s [1]. The many potential benefits of efforts by students andinstructors to apply engineering directed at improving the wellbeing of marginalizedcommunities are evident - communities receive valuable contributions while students gainpractical hands-on experiences and apply theoretical knowledge to solve real-world problems.However, as pointed out in [2] [3] [4] without careful facilitation and being mindful of historicalinjustices, patriarchal philosophies, and power dynamics, service learning can unintentionallyperpetuate a dynamic of

kinds of cultural backgrounds. As an engineer it is my responsibility to work in the bestinterest of the public, and that simply wouldn’t be possible if 1) I wasn’t able to effectivelyunderstand and work with coworkers of different backgrounds, and 2) If I couldn’t understandcultural values and their differences among the people I am supposed to work for. This ties a lotinto what I need to continue developing, as intercultural competence is not something you justlearn and never forget. The world and all the people in it are continuously changing, so to makesure that I continue to do my best work while keeping everybody’s wants and needs in mind issomething that is going to require me to continue learning, evolving, and seeking out discomfortin

the need for more scholarship that highlights students' capacity to dismantle structures of oppression. iterature ReviewLHumanitarian Engineering Education Humanitarian Engineering (HE) educational programs are growing exponentially globally, from less than two accredited programs in 2000 to over 67 in 2020[6]. Students entering these programs tend to be socially minded and have a higher population of historically underrepresented minority groups compared to the larger engineering field[7], [8]. These cohorts are enrolling with a passion for addressing modern-day engineering initiatives such as the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and the National Academy of Engineering’s Grand

institutions for over a decade-and-a-half. Throughcollaboration and a shared mission to infuse an entrepreneurial mindset (EM) into undergraduateengineering education, KEEN has cultivated this shared mission with more than 55 partnerinstitutions across the United States [15]. Each of these schools are committed to supplementingthe technical skills being taught in the classroom with a mindset that focuses on fosteringcuriosity, connections, and creating value – “the 3 C’s”. The KEEN framework, as shown inTable 1, seeks to describe the beneficial student outcomes that entrepreneurially-minded learningcan bring to engineering undergraduates. Examples of these benefits include the ability torecognize opportunities to create personal, economic and societal
