It falls to softwareengineering educators to teach future software engineers how to use such tools well, byincorporating them into their pedagogy.While some institutions have banned ChatGPT, other institutions have opted to issue guidelinesfor its use. Additionally, researchers have proposed strategies to address potential issues in theeducational and professional use of LLMs. As of yet, there have been few studies that report onthe use of LLMs

qualifications, and career path navigation.The concept of the engineerIn France engineers enjoy a high social rank where they constitute the mainstay of high-levelmanagers in French industries, different from other countries where these positions areoccupied by science Ph.Ds (Lemaître, 2017). In China, engineers do not enjoy as high asocial status and, in fact, the title of engineer lacks proper regulation (Qiao et al., 2023). Thisis reflected in most interviewees’ understanding of the difference in the concept between thetwo countries. ‘Engineers are viewed as elites of society in France, whereas in China, they arejust ordinary science and technology graduates’ (S6). Students understand that the concept ofengineer in France is broad, signifying an
