Alexandra Coso is a Ph.D. candidate in the Cognitive Engineering Center at Georgia Tech, where she is pursuing a doctorate in Aerospace Engineering. She is expected to graduate in May 2014. She received her B.S. in Aerospace Engineering from MIT and her M.S. in Systems Engineering from the University of Virginia. Her research interests include the integration of stakeholders into the engineering design pro- cess, development and evaluation of interdisciplinary engineering courses and programs, mixed methods research designs, and graduate student experiences in engineering programs.Dr. Adam R Carberry, Arizona State University Adam R. Carberry, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor at Arizona State University in the Fulton Schools

research faculty with experience in clinical translation.3. Methods3.1 Course overview and study design At the University of Pittsburgh, a course entitled “Controlled Drug Delivery” is offered as a cross-discipline (bioengineering and chemical engineering), upper-division elective for undergraduate students, and an engineering elective for bioengineering graduate students. Upon completing the course, the student should be able to (1) state the constraints on material properties posed by the physiological environment; (2) use the fundamentals of polymers, diffusion, degradation, modeling and pharmacokinetics to solve problems specific to controlled drug delivery; and (3) demonstrate ability to search and summarize

let aloneteacher empathy.In engineering education, though the concept of empathy is implicitly present in engineeringthrough human-centered design and user design [19], active use of empathy as a skill to connectwith customers is not commonplace in engineering “as these terms traditionally do not mesh withthe dominant image of engineering” [20, p. 2]. Much of the research on empathy and its relatedterminology [20] is focused on teaching empathy to students and how students become moreempathetic [21]–[23]. For example, Walther et al. [21] introduced empathy modules in anundergraduate mechanical course to practice empathy as a skill and provided results of thesensitive nature and complexity of teaching empathy.While most of the research in

embedded within our research design.Because engineering education researchers are also educators, the asymmetric relationshipbetween teacher and student can impact the quality of the interview data. For instance, there issomething potentially problematic about having faculty members interview students about thedifficulty they have speaking with faculty. While there may be other methods for facilitatingaccess, having students interview other students enabled us to tap more directly into studentexperiences.1 We also realized, through the course of this pilot study, that we were inviting ourstudent researchers to engage in a practice that was contiguous with a mode of interactionfamiliar to students—talking to friends about the challenges they were
