. Moreover, a significant gapexists in systematically incorporating emerging research topics into foundationalengineering education courses. This gap is partly due to the challenges in aligningacademic content with rapidly evolving technological landscapes and the lack ofstructured approaches to integrate these advancements into the curriculum [3]. Asa result, students may graduate with a knowledge base that, while solid intraditional principles, lacks the immediacy and relevance of recent technologicalprogress. This paper addresses these challenges by proposing a methodical approachto bridge the gap between current research developments and engineeringeducation.

traditional written exams should be avoided. Team-based projects [7] are highly encouraged, especially those which are multi-disciplinary [8].  Many entering freshmen are unprepared for rigorous academic study; thus, the Intro course should address how to be successful in college [9]. Beyond academic preparedness, retention is improved by generating enthusiasm for engineering [10] and by fostering a sense of community amongst students [11].A popular idea at many universities is the integrated curriculum -- common objectives andassignments overlapped with non-engineering courses that students take at the same time as theirengineering courses.

Forexample, under the society stakeholder, civil engineers should “acknowledge the community'sdiverse historical, social, and cultural needs and incorporate these considerations in their work.”The idea of equitable infrastructure also aligns with the new ABET civil engineering programcriteria (CEPC).

Some engineering facultymembers have successfully conducted this integration, whether for a thermodynamics [23] orcontrols [13, 24] course. It is incredibly challenging to attempt this integration within an entireengineering program [25].We propose an alternative integration. Rather than adding social justice directly into ourengineering courses, we rely on a social justice core curriculum to provide a thorough socialjustice foundation. Through this core curriculum, students learn how to critically analyze socialconditions. We then administer social justice case study
