]. Theymust now demonstrate their ability to “adopt an inclusive approach to engineering” [22]. TheRoyal Academy of Engineering [24] define six engineering habits of mind; systems thinking;adapting; problem-finding; creative problem-solving; visualizing; and improving. These areaccompanied by the following learning habits of mind: ethical consideration; curiosity, openmindedness; resilience; resourcefulness; collaboration; and reflection. It is therefore clear thatthis ‘new’ engineer of the future must have skills beyond the technical domain and Spinks,Silburn and Birchall [25] define three roles of an engineer: the first as a technical specialist;the second as an integrator who can work across boundaries in complex environments; andthird as a change

Often these areas arehome to the state’s underrepresented (by race, ethnicity, and/or income) populations [9].Nationwide, enrollment in many STEM disciplines by students of color, low income and otherunderrepresented groups remains low [10], [11].

The United States emerged as the leadingcontributor, with 16.67% of the articles, followed by notable representations from China, Taiwan,Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates, each offering a significant share of 4.17% to 8.33%. Thedistribution reflects a strong influence of U.S.-based research in the domain of generative AI inundergraduate engineering education. However, this distribution could be somewhat skewed,given that our review was limited to English-language articles. It is also important to consider thatwhile other regions may actively participate in Generative AI research, varying local pressures,incentives, or publication infrastructures might affect their visibility within the

Meanwhile, antebellum American colleges, which focused on aclassical college curriculum comprising courses in philosophy, mathematics, Greek and Latin, and classicalliteratures, were suffering mounting criticism for being elitist and disconnected from national needs.However, in pluralistic and decentralized 19th century America, neither public consensus nor publicagencies existed that could organize and overseeing development of a national system of engineeringeducation.As antebellum American colleges weathered these criticisms, the first formalized system of post-secondary engineering education in the United States developed within French-inspired military schoolsthat materialized

I got older, there was a time when—so Saudi's entire economy was built on oil. And they thought, “oil is never gonna run out.” And we're golden. And then the oil prices tanked. And like political things happened with OPEC. And in Saudi, there was a wake-up call, like, “oh, my God, we are not as profitable as we thought we were.” So, then they started doing things like, “oh, my god, line all the deserts with solar,” and start doing all these other things. And, that—not that it impacted me in a way where it changed my quality of living, but it was a wake-up call, like, okay, this is not how the world works. That's what brought me to want to do something related to energy, electricity, sustainability, and resilience. That's why

If the U.S. is to improve on its current competitive position in science and engineering,close the near-crisis workforce “skills gap” in steelmaking and other advanced manufacturing [1-3], and continue economic well-being, STEM education at the high school and postsecondarylevels needs support—for its teachers as well as its students.Despite its fundamental importance to the nation’s economy, infrastructure, and national security[8], the steel industry, like many U.S. industries, is experiencing a large skills gap [1-3,9,10]. Thegrowing shortage of skilled workers is fueled not only by loss through retirement, but by outdatedperceptions of manufacturing jobs (e.g., “low-tech,” “no

There is great need for sustainable development of our societies, which enables us tomeet our present needs “without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirown needs” [2].
