introduceengineering students to the fundamental concepts of design and data science. This work offersa pedagogical resource that shows best practices for integrating the technical and socialdualism in engineering education. We contend that without this sociotechnical integration inengineering courses, engineering education will leave students to reinforce existing racial andenvironmental injustices rather than providing a critical understanding of the social, political, andeconomic context in which they will be engineers. While, no course is ever perfect and it isdifficult to include all the important concepts relevant to a course without overwhelming thestudents, we hope that asking for whom, with whom, and as whom provide an initiation forstudents to

Through the experience students feel better about theiractions and understand the need and therefore the impact engineers have on a community. Thisencourages them to learn more about their chosen profession, and feel more confident about theirachievements.

sequence of steps allowed the researchers to identify which parts ofthe design process students focus on and which need more focus in the engineering curriculum.Another area that is relatively unexplored in the design thinking literature is the incorporation ofdiscipline-specific activities that are related to design. Materials engineering as a discipline isdefined by two key ideas. One, there exists a relationship between structure, properties, andprocessing that we can take advantage of to ensure the best performance of a material. Two, wecan systematically select the best material for an application based on its properties. The latter iscalled materials selection.
