engineering collaboration have been proposed [18, 19].Previously, we reported on educational innovations to teach students of engineering aboutdevices with biomedical applications [20, 21, 22]. These teaching efforts included thedevelopment of devices in the laboratory [23], the deployment of these devices to the field (inthis case, the community environment) [24], and the ongoing improvement of devices to promotehuman health [25]. These efforts incorporated high school teachers as well as historicallyunderrepresented student populations to learn about and become involved in device development[26]. These prior efforts targeted long-standing problems of sustainable development includingsecure access to safe supplies of food and water [27, 28, 29, 30

instructors at a concentration of 5% (w/v) and cyanoacrylate was used at themanufacturer concentration. Students used these two bioadhesives to adhere leather chamois strips.Leather chamois strips were chosen because they have a rough, protein-rich surface, which couldallow for adhesion through chemical interactions or mechanical interlocking. Since we did notconduct the activity in a laboratory space, we did not include a crosslinking agent with our gelatinbioadhesive; thus, gelatin and cyanoacrylate adhered through a mechanism of mechanicalinterlocking. Prior to distributing chamois, instructors threaded them with a plastic safety tie formechanical testing. Students then marked the chamois with a horizontal line 0.5 cm from thebottom of the strip

go beyond the effort of asingle faculty teaching the same lecture course. This choice could conceivably add a small butindeterminable overestimation of faculty teaching loads.If a professor taught multiple sections of the same class, the faculty was attributed credit for theclass multiple times. In contrast, faculty who taught multiple laboratory sections were onlygiven credit for one section. It was found that some departments offer many laboratory sectionsattributable to multiple faculty members, where it’s unclear how workload is divided. So, if eachlab teaching professor was given credit for each lab course they would have a significantlyhigher credit count than their lecturing peers. These choices could respectively overestimate

Bio-type electives were the most common newelective, followed by process-type electives.

course description for Numerical Computing for Chemical Engineers course at MissouriUniversity of Science and Technology states that students will “add to their programming skillsby exploring numerical computational techniques for … chemical engineering processes.” Thechallenge is that the course is taught early in the curriculum before the students know what thosechemical engineering processes are. The course has been structured as a flipped class with classtime devoted to solving problems with the numerical tools. To provide relevance for the material,an experimental component has been added to the course. In the laboratory sessions, the studentsconduct a brief experiment or activity and then analyze that process using the

Several initiativeshave been reported to compensate for this deficiency including classroom lab kits [3], remotelabs [4], [5], [6], virtual lab simulators [6], [7], [8], [9], and the use of data from unit operationexperimental modules [10] among others.Our chemical engineering curriculum includes a capstone senior course on Process Control, 5credit units, with a companion laboratory course (1 credit hour).

[2] including case studies in the unit operations laboratory course [3] or thechemical reaction engineering course [4]. The most common approach has been to incorporatelearning modules on ethics in the context of process safety [5]. The way in which process safetyis taught to students depends on the department (and university), with some schools having adedicated process safety course while others teach it as part of the senior design course. Teachingstudents about the concepts of ethical decision making in the context of process safety makes sensefrom an educational perspective, in part, due to the ongoing efforts to instill a culture of safety inall young chemical engineers [5].

Following the discussion of this video, the students were assigned a take-home quiz to report on some of the common errors in the chemical plant which can impact publichealth and safety. Students reviewed the literature and generated a written report highlighting theengineer's responsibility to make informed decisions while designing solutions. The students wereexplicitly advised to discuss an engineer's socioeconomic, environmental, and culturalresponsibilities. The students were evaluated on
