We observed similaradvantages to having greater ethics exposure in our curriculum.Students found that the access to engineering-related ethics education within the engineeringcurriculum was limited, and the existing philosophy and ethics courses were interesting andexposed them to thought-provoking material. Still, students struggled to relate their philosophyand theology education to their careers in the engineering industry. In our work, we have foundthat dialogue drives expanding of the mind. A lot of the discussion, even on
