We focused on the issue ofhomelessness as the context for the course’s design project because it is one of the largestsocial justice issues impacting the area where the University of the Borderland (pseudonym) islocated. The goal was to determine how the project influenced students’ perceptions ofhomelessness and the role of engineers in this social justice issue.
