, they are inherently benefitting society.Missing from the conversations were discussions of civic responsibility for an engineer. Onestudent talked about wanting to positively affect society by working on building codecommittees, and two other students highlighted an engineer’s ability to educate the public aboutissues like hydraulic fracturing. None of the students, however, talked directly about the needfor engineers to influence legislation or guide public policy. With only six of the 535 membersof congress being engineers, and only 11 from Science, Technology, Engineering orMathematics (STEM) backgrounds17, it is not surprising that ideas of civic responsibility arelacking in the discourse surrounding the role of engineers in society.(c

Local solutions involvehorizontal innovation networks to create assistive technology that is modifiable by healthcareprofessionals and patients, not just the engineers that created the device. However, the ability tocommunicate between engineers, healthcare professionals, and patients requires empathy.A number of other researchers have investigated the importance of developing empathy in theirengineering courses. Mitchell and Light (2018) have incorporated initial challenger interviews,subject matter expert speakers or videos, stakeholder engagement plans, and reflection exercisesto help students develop empathy in “EPICS,” a first-year design course at Colorado School ofMines [2].

communities-in-need typically focus on creating,implementing, and optimizing innovative technologies that can be universally applied to thedeveloping world. Many of the technological design assumptions are based upon the provider’svalues and cultural experience, and often disregard the conditions and context of the recipientcommunity. This mindset is exacerbated by the characteristic isolation that engineeringeducation maintains with regard to non-technical disciplines such as anthropology, communityhealth, and social development. A year-long course at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, currently in is third year and working with its third community, breaks theisolationism of engineering thinking by combining undergraduate and graduate
