This is underscored by its de facto inclusion,in some form, in the required "distributional elective" hours imposed by virtually every degreeprogram in the United States.

This degree willproduce more technologically literate students who understand the principles of engineering andwho will apply them to the profession they choose to pursue as citizens of a deeply technologicalsociety, but will not produce more practicing engineers immediately or directly. Thesignificance of engineering lies mainly in its relation to other societal sectors. Clearly engineersmust be more aware of this interrelationship, and the leaders of other sectors must become

Thepaper will describe the process for launching the initiative, the incentives used, some specificexamples, and a qualitative assessment of the resulting integration.BackgroundThe world outside academia increasingly values people who can see and communicate beyondtheir own specialty.
