These discussions are essential in grounding expectations and ensuring that thedeployment of AI aligns with ethical and sustainable practices [4].Recent developments, such as OpenAI’s innovations with GPT-4.5 (O1) and GPT-5 (O3), havereignited these debates. OpenAI’s blog posts on O1 and O3 reveal breakthroughs in efficiencyand multimodal learning, further advancing the capabilities of AI systems. These modelsdemonstrate enhanced performance in generating human-like text, image recognition, andproblem-solving.

pivotal moment inAI adoption driving rapid transformation across many fields. For higher education, the newtechnological wave demands a reevaluation of traditional teaching and learning models to remainapplicable in an AI-driven world [2]. Higher education institutions now face a monumental taskof embracing AI literacy as a core competency, akin to such fundamental competencies ascritical thinking and effective communication. However, integrating AI into higher educationpresents several challenges, including the lack of standardized guidelines for curricularintegration and established governance structures, ethical and safety concerns, facultypreparedness, quality and reliability of outputs, and the potential of increasing the digital divideand

“to advance the human condition and thus serve society” [1]. Engineers are in ourevery day lives from the homes we live in, the technology we use daily and the healthcare weengage in. The National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) has developed a code ofethics for engineers to follow. As part of the code of ethics, NSPE Code of Ethics, afundamental canon is to “hold paramount the safety, health and welfare of the public [2].” Inorder to satisfy or abide by this canon, I propose that engineering students must be civicallyengaged and as such it should be embedded into the engineering curriculum.Civic Engagement in Engineering“Civic Engagement involves working to make a difference in the civic life of one’s communityand developing the

Students are asked torecommend whether a condensing furnace run on natural gas or a heat pump should replace anold natural gas furnace in a private home. While some may find this to have an obviousengineering solution, the answer is not straightforward when considering the broader effects. Theidea is to increase system boundaries beyond the design objects to include the environment,society, and culture.

Background Perspective-taking, referred to as the cognitive ability to consider and interpret situations from another’s point of view [1], is a critical skill for fostering collaboration and communication inacademic, professional, and social settings [2]. It enables individuals to interpret the actions andintentions of others, thereby enhancing communication across cultural and interpersonaldifferences [3]. Hess et al.

Asstudents are already using these tools in their academic work at a higher rate than we expect [1],taking a proactive and forward-thinking approach to integrating GenAI into engineeringeducation is becoming increasingly important. Such an approach will not only equip studentswith the ability to critically evaluate AI-generated outputs but also encourage them to explore itslimitations and ethical and professional implications.In this case study, the authors explore the integration of two GenAI-based writing assignmentsinto a senior-level design course.
