The final area of empathy in engineering is a professional way of being, comprised ofthree topics with many ties to engineering ethics. Service to society describes a broadening of thetraditional ideas of economic development and expansion to include a deeper consideration ofhuman and nonhuman impacts of engineering. Dignity and worth of all stakeholders opens theidea of what is traditionally considered to be a stakeholder to include the natural environment.Engineers as whole professionals questions the assumption that engineers can be entirelyimpartial in their work, but instead that they

Aside fromthe technical feasibility of the design project, students are also forced to consider businessfeasibility, environmental impacts, social, political, and ethical implications, manufacturability,and unintended consequences.Additionally, accreditation by ABET is only possible if ABET’s Criterion 5d is satisfied wherethe engineering curriculum must include “a culminating major engineering design experiencethat 1) incorporates appropriate engineering standards and multiple constraints, and 2) is basedon the knowledge and skills acquired in earlier

We propose an approach that infuses historical figures (mathematician,scientists, engineers) and case studies into two junior level engineering courses to address thisconcern.In this paper, we investigate the impact of introducing historical figures and unique case studiesinto engineering courses.

A belief in meritocracy for white students also makes them believe that they aredeserving—entitled—to whatever success they are granted. In engineering, meritocracy showsitself in the manner “that students must prove themselves to be engineers, and they will make itonly if they work really hard through the ‘death march’ of math and science courses” [62, p. 11].More specifically to engineering, a blind belief of meritocracy in engineering gives a false sensethat, since the education, training, and work is hard, this will set them up for easy and wealthylives [65].
