Burgess provides guest lectures on ethics throughout the Whitacre College of Engineering. Burgess has also worked to incorporate ethics into K-12 STEM education. The push to increase the number of students pursuing STEM careers needs to be accompanied by a sophisticated understanding of the complexity of technology. Ethics is a key part of this complexity and the next generation of STEM professionals will need the skills to effectively engage the ethical challenges they will face. Burgess is a regular presenter on incorporating ethics in a K-12 setting. A theme throughout these roles is

In that regard, the electrical engineeringcurriculum has used simulations to assist student learning for more than two decades. A strongargument for the use of circuit simulators in the classroom can be found in [3], where the authorsargue the superiority of the ‘learn by doing” approach to teaching circuit analysis. A more recentexample of this teaching paradigm can be found in [4] where circuit simulation software iscombined with Mathcad to permit student interactive experimentation.Incorporation of projects into lecture classes provides an added mechanism to align thecurriculum with the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET
