Fears of increasing globalcompetition compound the perception that there has been a large decline in the supply of humanresources in the STEM graduate education.

While thepublished literature on returning students has discussed some of their special skills andparticular challenges, there are many unanswered questions, particularly in regard to returningstudents in engineering and other STEM fields.IntroductionWhile many graduate students in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM)fields begin their graduate program immediately after completing a bachelor’s degree, there arealso many who enter the workforce and later pursue a graduate degree. In the larger populationof graduate students, statistics show that many are older; in 2001, only 43.4% of

. If we think criticallyabout the framing of these ideas, it leads to questions in four key areas:*Who participated in this framing, and by what process? Who was left out of the deliberations,or given a lesser role?* What does it mean to frame out a set of “Grand Challenges” in engineering? What does it sayabout the role of technology in society, or the role of engineering? How might otherunderstandings about technology in society have led to different framings?* Why are the Challenges framed as morally imperative or at least for the greater good? Shouldthey be framed this way? Are the ends even desirable, and for whom? Why are certaintechnologies included, and not others?* What ethical consideration was given, or needs tonow be given, to the

Integrated CurriculumIntroduction and BackgroundThere have for many years been efforts to bridge the gap between educational experiences inengineering and the liberal arts and sciences. Such efforts typically take the form of coursesdesigned to promote technological literacy for liberal arts majors, or courses designed toencourage engineering or science majors to consider the social and political implications of theirprofessions.Technological literacy for non-technology majors has been addressed in a variety of ways. Onevery popular version is to provide a course for students, early in their collegiate career, to learnan engineering application that has direct relevance to their lives. This approach has been used atYale University in the course
