The Program looks for the generation ofprofessionals more aware of their decisions where they change the perspective from “knowledge owners”to “design facilitators”. It is based in three main conceptual paths: Social Appropriation of Technology,Listening and co-creation, and facilitation of social business model for communities.The main goal of this Program is to provide our engineering students with systemic thinking methodologiesand

Given that students who earn degrees in engineering often pursue careersoutside of engineering, studies of engineering career decision-making processes often focusheavily on engineering students’ college-exit strategies and early career decisions. For example,Lichtenstein et al. studied institutional influences, such as curricular design, on engineeringstudents’ career decision making by surveying college seniors at two institutions [1]. Similarly,Margolis and Kotys-Schwartz studied graduating college seniors to understand post-graduationattrition in engineering. They found that students who felt more prepared to pursue engineeringcareers were more likely to pursue such careers after

Many of theseschools participate in robotics competitions for novice students to be able to learn scientific andengineering principles through hands-on activity. However, at the high school level there is lackof team mentors to assist those youth with their various projects. Prior to development of thiscourse, Fairfield University had received frequent requests to recruit college students to serve asmentors for those programs. Many of our students found it difficult to dedicate the time, whenthey did not see themselves as experts, nor have an incentive on campus to encourage theirparticipation.Through the service learning structure

The skyrocketing cost of tuitionand textbooks makes attending college more difficult. OER has see more wide-spread adoptionin the Humanities and Social Sciences due to the need for incorporating current topics or the useof classical works of fiction that are in the public domain. Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics (STEM) fields have seen a much lower rate of adoption. Part of this lower adoptionrate can be
