Educational experiences that integrate liberal education content into theengineering curriculum have expanded as the role of an engineer in the workplace and in societyis reexamined. 4,5 Indeed, as argued by Grasso in 2002, it is engineering faculty’s responsibility tocomplement technical curriculum with a humanistic approach to meet the needs of society. 6 Thiscontent can take many forms such as enhanced discussion of ethics or service learningopportunities. Other examples include integration of curriculum modules covering social justicedirectly into technical coursework, thus forcing students to examine technical concepts moreholistically and blurring the traditional disciplinary boundaries. 7Often these approaches are suggested as a means to
