Skills that may be underdeveloped, in many practicingengineers, due to their education and professional experience. This leads to a call to convergeconcepts, disciplines, and epistemologies to solve complex problems that are bound by largersocial systems and its interdependencies, i.e. leading engineers to work with variousdisciplines from agriculture, medicine, earth sciences, social sciences and education9.

One particularly lively conversation stemmed from a student inquiring whether they could capture and reproduce the RF signal from key fobs used to unlock vehicle doors. The ensuing discussion ultimately transitioned to one of vulnerability of wireless systems and strategies to improve security. Instructors should be prepared for and welcome such discussions, as they present an opportunity
