universities are doing enough proactively to teach studentswhat they need to know to operate in a future environment is an open question11. Clearly, engineersmust complement their technical and analytical capabilities with a broad understanding of so-called“soft” issues that are non-technical. Experience has shown that social, environmental, economic,cultural, and ethical aspects of a project are often more important than the technical aspects but are Page 11.566.3not often emphasized in conventional engineering education.An issue of equal importance is the education of engineers interested in addressing problems specificto developing

For example, oneparticular case study in Gary Downey’s book highlighted the challenges inimplementation of a program to connect student engineers with underserved communitiesin an international setting. Differences in culture and language coupled with thegeographical distance compounded made the project untenable and it had to stop. Someof the reasons she cited included that “the large body of knowledge in the developmentarea was not readily accessible or available to engineers,” and students did not activelyseek out the ethical and social understanding necessary
