Schwartz, PhD School of Interactive Games and Media Rochester Institute of Technology igm.rit.eduAbstractThis survey paper introduces engineering educators to a subfield of computer graphics calledphysically-based animation (PBA) to advocate for collaboration in creating courses to improvestudent learning in STEM fields, especially in engineering. Engineering students may not realizethe degree to which they can leverage their education to enter the
technology and the profit-maximization of theemployer. This simple scenario intrigued the following two-prong issues for engineeringeducators: 1) what should be the underpinnings/justification of the decision-making process of anengineer? 2) when and in what context should an engineer learn these decision-makingprocesses? Engineers should anchor their decisions on ethical/moral basis, and learn and practicethese ethical-decision-making skills in their early professional development phase.Undergraduate education is one of the first formal places in the professional development of anengineer. Engineering students would be able to far-transfer ethical decision-making skills intheir industry career if they learn and practice in context. Capstone design
engineering course, titled “Engineering Disciplines andSkills,” provides students with foundational engineering skills necessary to be successful in latercoursework. Using the Reid and Reeping taxonomy [6], the course focuses on the Math Skillsand Engineering Specific Technology / Tools domains, but also incorporates aspects from eachof the Global Interest, Engineering Profession, and Academic Advising domains. The latter threedomains are used to both expose students to the breadth of engineering and help students exploretheir interests and learn more about the engineering majors available to them. Ultimately, thegoal is to provide students with the information and resources they need to make an informeddecision about which major they want to

broadly. A nationallyrepresentative study of engineering instructors and administrators showed that both programchairs and instructors reported their programs and courses gave only slight to moderate emphasison understanding how engineering solutions could be shaped by social, environmental, political,and cultural contexts or considerations, despite acknowledging the importance of such emphases[12]. Relatedly, in a longitudinal study of undergraduate engineering students, Cech [13], [14]found that students’ beliefs in the importance of professional and ethical responsibilities,awareness of the consequences of technology, understanding of how people use machines, andtheir social consciousness all declined over the course of their degree program
. 1. IntroductionFor an engineering degree to be generally accepted, it must come from an institution whose degreeprograms have been certified by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).One of the essential major components to achieve program accreditation by ABET is the approval ofits capstone design activities, which are commonly referred to as its senior design courses. We havefound that a student’s successful completion of his (her) engineering design project is muchdependent of his (her) engineering mathematics background. The Electrical Engineering Departmentat Southern University and A& M College, Baton Rouge, in the past twenty year experiences hasshown that students with engineering major can’t make a
