[11], [12].Unfortunately, many undergraduate programs are limited by accreditation requirements andproviding a curriculum that supports Program Educational Objectives and the needs of itsconstituents. It is likely that many programs are not able to add new courses to address theGrand Challenges [7] so other approaches might be helpful. For example, institutions mightconsider the value of co-locating engineering and humanities programs in the same department[13], developing electives that exist at the intersection of the humanities and engineeringprograms [11] and expanding the scope of environmental engineering graduate programs [7],which are often centered on narrow research (thesis) topics. The NAE report also states thatcurrent

To achieve thisgoal we targeted our first microprocessor course for improvement. This course required updatedpedagogy, instructional aids, equipment, software, and laboratory exercises. In effort to savemoney and provide design experiences for our students, we proposed having students design theprototype teaching aids for the course. Specifically, two undergraduate senior design students,Abbie Wells and Carrie Hernadez, would design a microprocessor laboratory platform for theirsenior design project. Also

Research has shown that graduate students’ educational experiences aresignificantly impacted by their relationship with their adviser, yet this relationship is one of themost frequently mentioned challenges by international students. Based on the literature review,we argue that being aware of intercultural competence is essential for STEM faculty to providepositive advising experiences for international graduate students. Despite the promise ofintercultural competence promoting effective and healthy advising relationships, there islimited literature about its use at the graduate level in STEM.

Like Fairclough’s account, it is bothlanguage used and social practice, but the focus is less on the interplay of discourse andindividual on a macro scale and more on individuals themselves. It shifts from a sociologicalaccount to a psychological one [10]. Thus, we see resonance with this theoretical understandingof discourse and our methodological approach, wherein we seek to understand how engineeringstudents use text (in the form of EDMAIC assignments) to position themselves as not simplyengineers but empathetic individuals as well.Empathy.
