The inclusion of introductory design courses in the engineering curriculum is afast-growing initiative that has been implemented in several universities across the US as part ofmultiple efforts to improve retention [1]. Still, current concerns about engineering retention andthe preparation that engineering students need, demand an examination of these courses. Oneway to examine these courses is by exploring how students use the content included inintroductory engineering design classes as they progress into successive phases of theirengineering education.

Byconducting a literature review of these four virtues, we gain insight into how engineeringeducators already infuse virtues into engineering education and identify the gaps andopportunities that exist to enrich undergraduate engineering education through a virtueframework. Although virtues are part of engineering education, our findings reveal that mostengineering educators do not explicitly describe these concepts as “virtues” and tend to treatthem instead as “skills.” While
