First, there is a need forwhat Stevens refers to as “socio-technical engineering education” [22], which combines the socialand technical development of engineering students, in order to better prepare them for the transitionfrom university to employment. The three graduates were able to build their social knowledge andskills through co-curricular rather than curricular activities, which do not prioritize the socialdevelopment among students and are, as Stevens, Johri, and O’Connor argue, “the bastion for thetechnical rationalist view of engineering” [23, p. 133].
