of how ethics integrated into technical coursescan help engineers understand the social context of engineering and factor it into their work after graduation,helping bridge the gap between social and technical. A similar concept was also suggested in Holsapple etal. [6] where the authors indicate that even in non-ethics courses faculty can incorporate their ownexperiences of ethical dilemmas into their classes. This pedagogical technique could also addressmacroethical issues by helping facilitate integration of ethics and science, technology, and society aspresented by Herkert [15] and Finelli et al.

dualism, “the distinction between being technology-focussed, on the onehand, and people-focussed, on the other” which is “manifest in the distinction often drawnbetween narrowly specialist and more holistically heterogeneous types of work and knowledge inengineering” (Faulkner 2000, p. 761-2). We note that the emphasis on meritocracy and the socio-technical dualism is common across Riley’s, Cech’s, and Slaton’s characterization ofengineering culture.These aspects of engineering culture strongly influence the ways in which resources and rewardsare distributed within teams, organizations, and institutions, and how status is built withinengineering communities. Because of this, we link these cultural norms to the notion of ideologyas described in

Citing the recurring fragmentation trend within ECE (e.g.,as technology evolved in society, electrical and computer engineers’ expertise becameincreasingly specialized into siloed sub-fields with little overlap), Jesiek and Jamieson shed lighton recurring issues pertaining to both (1) professional formation and (2) diversity and inclusionin ECE. That is, as a field, ECE promotes “negative stereotypes and masculine cultural dynamicsin…both school and workplace settings” [13, p
