(GANs) and Large Language Models(LLMs) such as ChatGPT, has profoundly transformed how architects, engineers, andconstruction professionals conceive, plan, and execute projects [12]. Generative AI, likeChatGPT, plays a significant role in generating designs and layouts, making the constructionprocess more optimal. AI can create designs using both text and visuals, providing flexibility tomodernize workflows. It enhances the visualization of design intent and communication amongstakeholders (clients, designers, general contractors, and others), ensuring that stakeholders canmeet owner expectations. AI models can analyze a larger dataset of existing designs, methods,and materials, saving designers time in data gathering. This is both cost and

Thus, since many engineering students are eventually going to graduate and becomeengineering managers who may utilize AI tools, engineering educators and researchers mustcontinue to explore ways to enhance students’ familiarity and proficiency with AI systems.LimitationsThis exploratory study utilized a limited sample in a randomized survey. Therefore, additionalwork is needed before the findings can be generalized.References[1] A.

However, the growing influence of generative AI tools like ChatGPT has also raised concernsregarding academic integrity and appropriate use, particularly among younger learners [16].Rather than viewing AI solely as a threat to traditional education models, recent efforts advocate for itsresponsible integration to enrich learning environments [11]. Strategies such as developing custom AIchatbots aligned with educational objectives offer pathways to maintain academic rigor while leveragingthe strengths of AI technologies [17]. At the forefront of this movement, work presented at the AmericanSociety for Engineering Education (ASEE) has demonstrated the effective use of custom generative AIchatbots as course resources [18], [19

GenAI tools saturate digital writing ecologies and continue to gain power with eachiteration, yet student use of GenAI remains an understudied aspect of generative AI uptake inhigher education literacy [7]. Engineering education has unique features (e.g., coding,calculations, design processes, technical communication) and deserves its own empiricalresearch on student writing practices in relation to GenAI, not yet done to our knowledge.Additionally, it is still unclear how generative AI technologies will shape the engineeringeducation landscape as students grapple with the

Therefore, the work in progress seeks to challenge thenorm by combining the technical and historical content with the dramatic story-telling elements ofa fictional novel.
