Mastery of key processes is thought to be an effective way to maintaincompetitive advantage while delivering value to customers [17]. It was in that light that substantialthought was given to identifying processes that would be both core to skill development in Ph.D.student researchers, and would help build a process mastery mentality into the learning outcomesand deliverables of the new course. Further, if students who completed the course were viewedas even budding “masters” of these processes, it was hoped that it could potentially be seen as a“competitive advantage” for students within the larger Engineering Education

creative forces are the action (either directly or indirectly) of a master designengineer who “holds all things together.”26Engineering Professor Walter Bradley provides insight into the difference between cosmic andhuman engineering. Human engineering consists of specifying the boundary conditions underwhich the laws of nature operate to produce a purposeful outcome. Cosmic engineering mustinvolve specification of not only the conditions under which the laws of nature operate, but thelaws themselves and the universal constants that scale the “building blocks” of matter and energyand the fundamental forces in nature to provide the purposeful outcome of a habitable universefor life, and life itself.

Finally, I share practical strategies and lessons learned for cultivating integrative ways ofthinking about engineering science concepts.Introduction: Why Attempt to Humanize Signals and Systems?A cursory examination of perhaps any commentary on engineering education reveals a depictionof a ubiquitously desired product of an engineering degree: a master of technical knowledge thatcan also demonstrate competence among people and consciousness about technical work inrelation to people. Such an integrated form of social and technical, or sociotechnical,competence has formed an underlying premise for visions for the future of engineeringpractice1-4 as well as accreditation outcomes for engineering programs5-7.Yet, while promoting a desire for

It is not fleeting or easily forgotten. • flexible - If the context of the problem changes, one can bring relevant knowledge to the task and apply these ideas to changes in the problem. • fluent - The ideas needed to solve a problem arrive quickly; they are coordinated or connected in the correct ways.Deep understanding is not: • rote or algorithmic. • about repeating back facts or words that lack underpinning in experience. • the accumulation of facts or acquisition of information. Tests of understanding do not involve repetition, or mastered practice; but rather, appropriate
