coverage of these important broader considerations, andthus to provide opportunities for broader ways of thinking in engineering education. Commonapproaches to teaching engineering design incorporate some of these ways through project-basedlearning, which finds instantiation in senior capstone design projects [6, 7], first-year cornerstonedesign projects [7], and service learning [7, 8]. Closely related, the Aalborg problem-based learning(PBL) model also focuses on contextualizing learning and problem-solving [9]. Litzinger et al.’s[10] discussion of expertise and engineering education emphasizes the importance of the “context-rich, multifaceted problems” commonly embedded in all of these approaches.Empirical research on engineering design

year. Once in the AE major, 2nd and 3rd year students continue to study math, physics, and engineeringmechanics concurrent with a series of introductory in-major courses prior committing to a specific AEoption area. Both the 2nd and 3rd years were developed for exploration of the specific disciplines whilebuilding foundational building related knowledge. Through these two years, students gain knowledge andconfidence to participate in and lead integrative design projects. Before entering the 4th year, studentschoose a sub-discipline. The 4th and 5th years are devoted to discipline-specific AE coursework and an 8-credit year-long capstone project tying everything together. Table 1: Breakdown of in-major and out-of-major courses

Students can next each be given an opportunity for designusing the toolkit. It is our hope that the toolkit be used in senior capstone type projects. Finally,the toolkit provides graduate students with opportunities for design and research.From a student’s point of view, being given a design opportunity such as the inverted pendulum Page 13.335.6can be overwhelming.

It is unclear still how these networks may be affected, and itmay take several more years to realize some of these unintended consequences of movingstudents away from specific disciplines in that first year.It is also important to ensure the FYE instructors understand the BAE discipline well enough sothat relevant examples and projects are incorporated into the FYE engineering courses.

Research suggests that whenstudents are supported to make consequential decisions, they feel a greater sense of ownershipover their work [19, 20]. Framing agency, therefore, can serve as a lens into whether students arelearning to negotiate the process of framing design problems. In our past work, we found thatstudents’ talk in their design teams was indicative of whether they treated the problems asframed for them and not open to reframing, or as problems they themselves needed to frame [18,21].MethodsResearch designIn order to meet our research aims, we first conducted discourse analysis and then explored

This may be indicative of a typical problem in engineering education – first-yearcourses are interesting and project-based, but then in the second year, all the intense prerequisitesmust be taken, which limits students’ abilities to engage with social issues within or outside theircourses. Additionally, some students chose to be more involved with sororities or sports teams Page 26.643.6rather than volunteer groups, and their schedules did not allow for both activities.Table 2: Demographics of Students Interviewed and EPRA Survey Results

Within this debate it is generally assumed that the curriculum is the arenain potential need of reform [3]–[5]. Curriculum reform deliberations tend to operate at arelatively high level, with a central tension between “theory” (engineering and basic sciencecontent) and “practice” (professional skills, often in project type context) [6].A relatively recent focus for global curriculum discussions has been the spread of outcomes-based criteria for accreditation through the mechanism of the

A ‘mentor’ experience; e.g., mentored internship not done for academic credit, in which students get to create their own project and then implement it under the supervision of a faculty member, provides an effective tool for learning. · Appreciate diversity.
