through experience, it is desirable that new college graduatesdisplay a reasonably high level of competency at engineering design. In fact, it is now arequirement of many new managers2. This is also reflected in the program accreditationrequirements of the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET)8 and theEngineering Council9, the two major international organizations that set accreditation criteriafor engineering programs.As a result, over the last twenty years, engineering departments have begun to introduceengineering design courses into their curriculum1,10. The main objective of these courses is tobridge the gap between theory and practice in order to allow students opportunities todevelop those skills that will be necessary

engineering design, such as systematic contexts, decision making, and collaboration [25].But in the meantime, the engineering design could be an effective activity for teaching liberalarts and engineering students how technology and society interact from the perspective of thecreator of technology, the designer or engineer [26]. In other words, engineering design acts as abridge that smoothly connects between liberal arts and engineering education. Most liberal artsuniversities expose freshmen to engineering design in their first year. On the one hand, first-yearstudents in general lack a clear understanding of the engineering profession and its differentdisciplines. Students are vulnerable to pursuing majors that diverge from their career

It is a field of doing and making, creating great products and services that fit human needs, that delight and inform. Design is exciting because it calls upon the arts and humanities, the social, physical, and biological sciences, engineering and business.” – Don Norman, “State of Design: How Design Education Must Change”2Anyone can design a product, yet good design involves making a product both useful andunderstandable.

next generation’s products and processes must be designedwith sustainability deeply embedded. Further, issues such as sustainable water and greenconstruction, the MSI’s major focus areas, impact large portions of both the developing anddeveloped worlds. As a result, engineers must include sustainability as a fundamental designconstraint, both for the well being of future generations and for the US to remain economicallycompetitive. According to Thomas Friedman [2], “green technology is emerging as the mostimportant industry of the 21st century.” He warns that [if nothing is done]: “Wait a decade, whenwe’ll have to import our green technology from Beijing, just as we have to import hybrid motorstoday from Japan.”The University of Pittsburgh’s

global design occurs when engineers in affluent societies create life-improving designsfor use in high human-need environments, such as the human-powered Freeplay Radio initiallytargeted at rural African customers. (A case study of the Freeplay Radio design is given byCagan and Vogel10). Another example is the “robust, fully articulating dental chair and battery-operated hand piece, all in a package you can comfortably carry on your back” developed by theUS-based Indigenous People’s Technology & Education Center (I-TEC) to enable dental care inremote regions11.

Engineers can no longer expect alinear environment, but rather a “network, web, or system.” 2 No longer are the “number ofvariables … severely constrained, and … problems reduced to quantitative dimensions,” butsystems are complex and “so heterogeneous that interdisciplinary interactive groups sharingperspectives and information are needed to create and control them.”2 In other words, theprofessional engineer cannot continue to be a “disengaged problem solver” and, likewise, themethods used to educate new engineers cannot consist of disengaged students working throughlinear, constrained, quantitative problems with single answers. A more complex, inter-connectedworld is emerging and science and engineering jobs are adapting
