Furthermore, implementing real-timecollection of water data has a number of advantages over traditional sampling in the field [2] andreal-time monitoring technology is becoming increasingly important for evaluating water quality[3].In the following sections, first, the freshman engineering course and related programminginitiatives that led to the adoption of LabVIEW in the course will be discussed. Next, the gradualintroduction of data acquisition and LEWAS as an environmental data acquisition system relyingon LabVIEW - since its early developmental stages-in the course, will be discussed.

For instance, during a design conversation that occurred one week afterthe product box exercise, ID and MKT students asked ECE students in the team howcloud computing worked. The ECE student explained how data could be stored in serversand accessed over the Internet.

.Principles suggested in previous literature are as follows2, 5, 6: 1. Engineers hold a responsibility that spans national, racial, cultural, social, and economic borders to promote the welfare of all humans. 2. Engineers have a responsibility to design products and technologies with a focus on sustainable development. 3. Engineers have a responsibility to ensure engineering is not employed as an instrument that further widens the gap between the rich and the poor.When applied to current challenges in international engineering ethics, these principles form abasis for an international code of ethics1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8: 1.
