withstudent motivations. However, across the board, current engineering education largely focuses onmastering the engineering sciences with little attention paid to technology transfer orhumanitarian engineering (9). Showing students the connection between social issues andengineering within the curricula may help broaden participation of female and minority students(8; 10). Helping students develop an engineering identity by connecting their personal values tothe practice of engineering can encourage students to persist in engineering (11). In addition,undergraduate engineers should be exposed to the breadth of engineering practice beyondteaching just the fundamental engineering skills (11).This paper describes the motivations of undergraduate

In the curriculum approach, technology and appliedengineering education are blended with entrepreneurship for all semesters of study. Traditionaljunior and senior level courses in all walks of engineering learning in the undergraduatecurriculum has traditionally relied on home work, quiz, assignments, exams and projects foradministering the course as well as to assess student performance.
