In order to better understand the role(s) of such a course in an engineering student'seducation and how engineering education considers these issues, the instructor team invited twoundergraduate researchers to undertake projects in support of these goals. One of these students(Amber Levine) was tasked with identifying other courses across the U.S. with similar subjectmatter and learning objectives (“EEL Related Courses Study”); she found 13 courses acrosstwelve institutions that connected issues of diversity and culture to engineering and were targetedto engineering students (Levine, 2016).

Add to this an ever-increasing emphasis onhigh-stakes testing and pass rates and the result is an increased focus on drilling students topass the tests, with little or no focus on developing conceptual understanding or cognitivecapacity. For future engineers this is a recipe for disaster, literally.Changing the quality of schooling is a long-term project, one that lies outside the scope ofmost academics’ activities.
