ASEE paper at the annual conference focused on servicelearning. It had 6 authors, including 2 engineering faculty, three non-engineering faculty, and anindividual from a K-12 school district. Engineering faculty included individuals with degrees inengineering, engineering technology, construction management, physics, and/or architecture.Additional data was gathered as benchmarks to compare to the LTS faculty. Faculty data wasgathered from the ASEE profiles, and more specific information from the ASEE EngineeringData Management System.36 This provided information on the ranks of engineering faculty forthe institutions with engineering degrees around the U.S. When combined with informationfrom the Carnegie Classifications, the distribution of

condition andhuman identity, which helps to answer some of life’s biggest questions.In fact, it was the social science of psychology that originally birthed the concept of affordances(relationships that provide capabilities), which is important when discussing ingenuity in nature.The history and usefulness of affordances are explained briefly in a later section. A fourthculture, consisting of engineering and technology, has adopted the concept of affordances to helpclarify the intricacies of product design and reverse engineering (disassembling something tofigure out how it works). It is the contention of the authors that the field of engineering hasimportant points to contribute to these conversations. Engineering is often confused with science,or

NationalAcademy of Engineering (NAE) has also highlighted the importance of systems thinking amongengineers, emphasizing the accelerating pace of technological advancement, globalconnectedness, and reliance on technology and infrastructure,2–4 all of which stress the need forengineers to be able “to address large-scale systems problems.”2 In industry, employers have also Page 26.1039.2emphasized the importance of systems thinking. For example, “managing complexity in asystems environment” is a desirable “transferable skill” of engineering graduates byemployers.5 Working with other disciplines both within and beyond engineering is an increasingnecessity
