At many institutions, ethics is not arequired course for engineering students; instead, students are often instructed to memorizeabstract ethical codes, likely causing them to take ethics less seriously [6], [7]. That is, memorizingabstract ethical codes does not provide a solid foundation for providing solutions to ethicaldilemmas. As such, many students tend to draw from personal experience rather than from theirprofessional ethical education when facing ethical dilemmas, which can lead to undesirableoutcomes [6], [7], [8]).Troublingly, Cech (2014

The four-year post-secondary program will result in a B.S. in AppliedEngineering and Production Sciences. All traditional engineering major areas of specialization(e.g., M.E., E.E., I.E., etc.) are eliminated. The paper makes the case that, in all these areas, theengineering is essentially the same. The difference is the artificial focus on particular segmentsof the continuous physics or science spectrum. Unlike the traditional post-secondary engineeringeducation model, this new model wraps an engineering college around a contract engineeringbusiness, or full service

This case study suggests that achange to instructions during conceptual sketching—requiring representations of people—mayfoster engineering students’ engagement in human-centered design practices.IntroductionHuman-centered design (HCD) requires a deep understanding of people in the design context[1]–[3]; however, research documents that engineering students have struggled to consider thepeople who will use their designs [4]–[9]. Empathy is a key mindset in human-centered design inorder to effectively understand people’s experiences and incorporate them into design decisions[10]–[12]. Empathy

Even though many educators encourage their students to formulate three to fivesolutions before moving forward with the process, this research and other compelling studies [1],[2], [3], reveals that most engineering students construct fewer than two possible solutions (~1.3)before selecting one and completing the design with that solution.Although students are taught that the brainstorming step, the creative process whereby severalpossible solutions are determined before proceeding, is an essential aspect of engineering design,they are failing to spend adequate time and energy on this part of the process.
