engineers focuses on learning a number of techniques with which theycan mathematically model a number of scenarios and optimize a mathematical function that issubjected to various mathematical constraints. Reality works differently though. Theimplementation of optimization actions in a real context yields direct and indirect impacts tosociety and to individual people. They are further strengthened when projects are implemented orexecuted in international settings, where different systems of laws, regulations, cultures, andvalues play a role. Several examples in the past have shown dramatic consequences for notconsidering ethical implications of engineering decisions in real projects. Therefore, exposingstudents to ethical conflicts, as well as

Therefore, in order to get hired, and later on be able tohave a successful long term career engineers need to be trained on human behavior skills so thatthey are able to talk, interact, and work with people from different backgrounds; be worldly; beleaders if the situation calls for it; be ethical; and know how to effectively conduct themselves atprofessional environments.

The design in the second semester involves a local real world client andincorporates performing the engineering design and learning the basic tools of projectmanagement, supply chain management, and operations management to prepare a managementplan around the project design. The product and management plan are again presented orally andin a written document and presented to the real world client. Some of the designs from thissecond semester course have
