Overall, the student body was 49% male. Thus,the student participants were racially and gender diverse.

engineering design, such as systematic contexts, decision making, and collaboration [25].But in the meantime, the engineering design could be an effective activity for teaching liberalarts and engineering students how technology and society interact from the perspective of thecreator of technology, the designer or engineer [26]. In other words, engineering design acts as abridge that smoothly connects between liberal arts and engineering education. Most liberal artsuniversities expose freshmen to engineering design in their first year. On the one hand, first-yearstudents in general lack a clear understanding of the engineering profession and its differentdisciplines. Students are vulnerable to pursuing majors that diverge from their career

It is a field of doing and making, creating great products and services that fit human needs, that delight and inform. Design is exciting because it calls upon the arts and humanities, the social, physical, and biological sciences, engineering and business.” – Don Norman, “State of Design: How Design Education Must Change”2Anyone can design a product, yet good design involves making a product both useful andunderstandable.
