percentage of anticipated construction costs orby square footage. Few owners appear to place importance of appropriately funding thepreconstruction phase and thus by estimating the design services fee using a percentage ofconstruction costs or by square footage, they inadvertently cap the design effort [4]. To estimatethe number of hours that design professionals can spend on a given project, architects andengineers divide the total preconstruction budget by their hourly rate. If the amount of hours isnot enough to complete the design, design professionals must figure out how to complete thedesign while fulfilling their contractual and ethical obligation to the owner. Without sufficienthours to complete a design due to a tight hourly budget, design

Offering a single Bachelor of Science degree in engineering without discipline-specific majors or concentrations, the goal is to train and produce engineering versatilists, a termpopularized by Friedman [3], who can work in cross-disciplinary environments. At the heart of ourprogram is the six-course engineering design sequence that provides instruction on design theory(thinking, process, methods, tools, etc.), sustainability, ethics, team management, and technicalcommunication (both oral and written), while incorporating elements of engineering science andanalysis. Students apply design instruction in the context of two projects during the six-coursesequence—a cornerstone project spanning

In the context of ourframework, this category captures personal commitment to social justice and the sustainability ofthe design and processes. At the novice sophistication level, a student approaches design as asingular task without intention to apply what has been learned to a new situation.

. Their responsesrevealed a wide range of perspectives with the level of appropriation of the concept ofchangemaking engineering expressed along a continuum. As pointed out by Kabo and Baillie[10], concepts such as social justice, sustainability, humanitarian practices or ethics can bethreshold concepts to define what a changemaking engineer is. Using this idea, the authorscreated three distinct categories to classify how students defined changemaking engineering. Thefirst group represents students who did not relate engineering and changemaking in ways thatreflect the perspective of the university, or the RED project. These students did not relateengineering with changemaking or by defined every engineer as a changemaker. Nine (32%)students were
