planning to start engineering at Loyola University Chicago (LUC), the new Director decidedto integrate social justice with engineering in the curriculum. This decision seemed a naturalextension of Jesuit universities’ emphasis on social justice. LUC’s BS Engineering Scienceprogram began the following year in August, 2015.BackgroundIn his 1968 survey for ASEE, Liberal Learning for the Engineer, Sterling Olmsted counted 93engineering schools that had initiated programs in liberal studies in the last three years. By 1973,as a result of this report, almost 200 technical colleges experimented with curricula to address thesocial implications of technology. Two curricular approaches included “humanizing”engineering through interdisciplinary education and

It is here where thenext generation of profession members—engineering students—are socialized into this cultureand learn to “become” engineers, “think like” engineers, and to problem solve in an “engineeringway” [11-12].At first blush, abstract beliefs within the professional culture may seem a degree removed fromthe day-to-day processes of inequality within engineering departments.

The National Academy ofEngineering (NAE) [4] and National Science Foundation (NSF) [10] have devoted resources andattention to improving the ethics education of students. This includes both microethics, orindividual responsibilities, and macroethics, addressing the “role of engineers in societalimplications about technology” and the broader societal and environmental responsibilities of theprofession [11].Although accreditation requires some degree of ESI education [7,8], the precise nature is notconstrained and seems to be largely at the discretion of individual programs and their faculty.Lattuca and Stark’s Academic Plan Model [12] describes faculty teaching choices.

), and engineering work as devoid of power relations. Critiques of this stance are resonant with insights from science and technology studies, documenting that engineering culture is dominated by technological determinism (Smith and Marx, 1994), a loose cluster of cultural narratives stating that technological development inevitably leads to progress, technical experts know best how to govern new technologies, technology homogenizes cultures, and society adapts to technology rather than shapes it. Over the last few decades, engineering education scholars have begun to elaborate how technocracy does harm in engineering education. Cech (2014) argued that, over engineering
