definition of it. What engineeringeducation must have is a guiding philosophy based on a clearer visualization of the place ofengineering in modern life” [2], p.12. This historical perspective allows engineering educators to see that the aspirationsexpressed in 2004’s The Engineer of 2020: Visions of Engineering in the New Century are morea tradition than a novelty [3]. What is relatively new is the emergence of the field of Science,Technology, and Society (STS) and, in particular, attempts to integrate STS into engineeringcurricula.

As Neeley, Wylie, and Seabrook demonstrated in their2019 paper [4], engineering educators
