withstudent motivations. However, across the board, current engineering education largely focuses onmastering the engineering sciences with little attention paid to technology transfer orhumanitarian engineering (9). Showing students the connection between social issues andengineering within the curricula may help broaden participation of female and minority students(8; 10). Helping students develop an engineering identity by connecting their personal values tothe practice of engineering can encourage students to persist in engineering (11). In addition,undergraduate engineers should be exposed to the breadth of engineering practice beyondteaching just the fundamental engineering skills (11).This paper describes the motivations of undergraduate
