. Therefore, in the end, the project was generally following the ME requirements.Due to fact that both schools are under the College of Engineering, this simple solution wassurprisingly effective and saved a lot of potential confusion.Case StudyThere is a current shift in the automobile market toward electric vehicles. However, the currentlymost popular electric vehicle, the Tesla Model S, still has a structure similar to that of aconventional vehicle. This design cannot fully utilize the potential of an electric vehicle. Instead,it makes the vehicle even more complex by adding electric modules onto a mechanical systemwhile minimally reducing the number of mechanical components. A fully digitized electricalcontrol system could unleash a higher

On thisweb site, the failure stories include two main sections: a description of the failure and thelearning that resulted. Similarly, texts such as Lucena et al.’s Engineering and SustainableCommunity Development features many insightful examples of engineering projects that did notsucceed.2 Many other cases are available on the Internet, in databases, and in other publishedliterature.

It maybring an impression to ethics instructors that the government has “endorsed” the instruction ofWestern professionalism, and this type of professionalism is acceptable to include in engineeringcurricula – although it is worth noting that there is not yet an accepted national ethics curricula inChina. Further, most Western engineering ethics textbooks that have been translated into Chinesereflect a strong professional tradition (e.g., Charles E.
