the expressway waswhere thousands of people lived. So, while the expressway achieved its goal of creating anefficient means to travel through the Bronx via automobile, it destroyed a community in theprocess. As a result, 5,000 residents were displaced from 1,500+ apartments, 113 streetsreworked, housing prices plummeted, and unemployment skyrocketed, to name a few of thenegative consequences. The alternative route suggested by engineers and community memberswould have displaced only a total of nineteen families—with the demolition of the Third Avenuetransport depot and six dilapidated tenement brownstones according to Journalist, Robert Caro.This goes beyond the efficiency of the design of the expressway and centers on ethical concerns.Civil

Practices Related to Sociotechnical Thinking in the Teaching of Undergraduate Engineering StudentsAs a global society, we face significant challenges, including environmental degradation andclimate change, increasing economic inequity, rapid urbanization and population growth, theexclusion of individuals and groups from different forms of social engagement, and concernswith privacy and security. Given the omnipresent nature of technology and its influence on ourlives, engineers must consider the ethical, environmental and sociological impacts of their work,and some engineering programs are considering new pedagogical methods and broaderframeworks to engage students in macroethics, sociotechnical thinking and engineering for

First-Year StudentsIntroductionDiscussion of engineering curriculum development often focuses on technical knowledge andskills needed to prepare students to design engineering solutions. However, the context in whichthese solutions are applied is important as indicated in the first cannon in the National Society ofProfessional Engineers (NSPE) Code of Ethics which states that "engineers shall hold paramountthe safety, health, and welfare of the public" [1]. The focus on preparing students for thetechnical demands of engineering design may lead to them not fully appreciating the societalimpact of engineering solutions. Cech [2] studied the evolution of the interest of students inpublic welfare issues, such as ethical responsibilities

may argue that in engineering, perhaps the same principles are discussed using differentterminology, for example, engineering ethics. It is true that most engineering programs have somecoverage of engineering ethics either as a stand-alone course or as content that is integrated withdesign projects and design activities in design-focused courses. This is a fair argument that needsto be explored further.Design Justice principles and a code of ethics are both frameworks for guiding designpractice, but they have some key differences. A code of ethics is a set of principles orguidelines that outline what is considered ethical behavior within a specific profession. Inthe field of design, a code of ethics may outline how designers should conduct

The block-schedule curriculum doesnot add more credits compared to a traditional curriculum, but instead uses the hours moreeffectively through restructuring (e.g., combining two separate thermodynamics courses offeredin consecutive terms into a single thermodynamics pillar course). This provides larger blocks oftime for students to actively engage in learning in the classroom with the support of the instructorand allows for a hands-on unit operations laboratory experience for five consecutive semestersfor the students in parallel with their core courses.Table 1 provides the sequence of courses and labs which make up our core curriculum.

Today, data is more easily accessible and possible to assembleand analyze, including information such as water, energy, and carbon footprints of actions (e.g.,drive vs. fly) and material choices (e.g., aluminum vs. plastic). Once students are armed withknowledge of environmental impacts of engineering, via modules like the one we developed,they are more likely to be motivated towards action [10]. As such, students will be betterprepared to make environmental and ethical decisions which will meet the needs of the NSPECode of Ethics, particularly code III, 2d [1].

It is a one credit course so a 50-min session per week is devoted to lectures, but twoto three hours of outside classwork per week are required.

As youth engage with engineering activities andcurricula, it is important that they consider these elements.
