. You can't use the excuse that it's a technical job to deny its interpersonal attributes, because your products will always end up being used by a person. (S7)Many students have reported a heightened sense of social responsibility as engineers. Onestudent expressed that 'the training of engineers is the training of a person' (S2). They havebecome significantly more attuned to the societal aspects of engineering and the importanceof integrating social and ethical dimensions into their work. Human-centered issues, such asecology, environmental protection, and life cycle considerations, now occupy a much moreprominent place in their consciousness.Linking theory with practice.

However, student veterans who never attended college mustlearn to navigate an unfamiliar environment and its structure that focuses on the needs andinterest of younger students. The cultural values developed by service members also includeprofessional expectations: timeliness, discipline, accountability, and authenticity.

This new method was applied in civil engineering and architecture courses, along withactivities that develop student learning.Background/FrameworkAcademic integrity within the student environment is related to honesty, responsibility, andrespect, and implies that students must follow rules and regulations, demonstrating theircommitment to responsibility and ethics against frowned upon activities

Alongside the needto research, serve the college and profession, mentor graduate students, and publish, theengineering professor has an ethical responsibility to help shape the next generation ofinnovative engineers. Meanwhile, many of their students, through no personal fault, enter collegewithout the habits of mind or self-control expected of previous generations of collegeundergraduates. New educators may find students who struggle to adapt to the model of highereducation that produced the educators. Further, college graduates must self-direct their

The string becomes a physical memory of the ceremonyand should be kept on for several days.Even though the respect from student to instructor seems less than before (especially in a largecity such as Bangkok) this tradition is still very strict in other regions of Thailand.

In today’sglobally competitive economy, it is more important than ever to develop effective design skillswithin the undergraduate years. However, before effective design learning experiences todevelop the skills necessary for human-centered design can be created, an understanding of theways in which students experience human-centered design is needed. This paper provides anoverview of a phenomenographic study that explores students’ understanding of human-centereddesign, presents the resulting outcomes space, and discusses the educational implications of thefindings.MotivationDesign has long been a core function of engineers

,and international projects in the engineering workplace. Research methods in studyingengineering practice included mixed quantitative and qualitative online surveys,interviews with practicing engineers, and case studies of engineering firms. We foundthat effective engineers value communication, problem-solving, teamwork, ethics, life-long learning, and business skills. Many of them note that their undergraduate educationdid not always prepare them well in these areas. Because of these two misalignments, wehypothesize that potential engineering talent goes underdeveloped at important stages ofeducational pathways as students move from high school to college. We believe thatincorporating these findings into an interactive special session would

Capstone and senior design projects are ways that traditional engineering programs develop identity, but providing opportunities earlier in the academic career may help to develop this earlier.

This will hopefully guide thestudents to police their own practices.10 Because OEPs require the students to doindependent study on the subject and to define a unique idea using limited knowledge,another good resource is the US patent database. Because each patent must have at leastone cookbook-type recipe concerning how to implement the idea, this makes patents avaluable source for students working on OEPs. However, in the case of patents theinstructor needs to very carefully guide the students in their selection of good qualitypatents. Even though most high

contribute to understanding. It isappropriate to set aeronautical education in the context of aerospace product development forseveral reasons. First, it is what our graduates will do when they graduate. It culturally preparesthem for the activities of engineering, and excites them by satisfying their desire to perform theroles of an engineer. Secondly, it aids in teaching the skills that they will need in the workplace.If we are to teach students to communicate and work in teams, and especially to act ethically andcreatively, it is far easier to impart this understanding while working on authentic engineeringactivities. Finally, and most subtly, learning in context better supports the learning of the criticalaeronautics core competencies
