UC Berkeley Professor J. M. Prausnitz foreshadowed the1994 ASEE report when he argued in 1989 that “[undergraduate] engineering should be taught ina social context” [7, p. 14]. Draw lessons from the humanities, he expands (addressing a likelyreticent audience): Yes, teach science, teach phenomena, experiment, theory, and correlation. Yes, teach technology, plant design, and product development. But don't stop there. Teach also, or at
