Research- Engineering Empathetic Engineers (E^3): Effects of the humanities on engineers' critical thinking and empathy skillsKeywords: Discourse Analysis, Interdisciplinary, Team Teaching, Post-secondary EducationTraditional disciplinary silos have separated engineering and the humanities, creating gaps inengineering students’ skills. Technical knowledge and aptitude have long been a mainstay inengineering education, whereas critical thinking, empathy, and ethical reasoning have been keyin the humanities. In an ever complex and interrelated world, society's grand challenges call forproblem-solving that provides technical innovations while considering and understanding thepeople involved and affected by that innovation.
