Thispaper focuses on the curricular component of this framework.As part of these curricular activities, 18 short, self-paced, e-learning modules will be developedand integrated into courses spanning all four years across all engineering and computer sciencedisciplines. Each module contains readings, short videos and self-assessment exercises. Five ofthese e-learning modules were developed in fall 2014, four of these five were piloted in theSpring 2015 semester, and all five

When considering bias in engineering, social bias, like racial and gender bias, typicallycome to mind. Investigation into these biases are thorough (Eddy & Brownell, 2016; Ohland et al.,2011; Williams et al., 2016) and increasing awareness of them is warranted. But considered lessfrequently is the role that cognitive biases play in engineering design (Carmichael, 2020;McDermott et al., 2020; Mohanani et al., 2020). Cognitive bias refers to the variations in thinkingand decision-making that occurs between individuals when presented with the same information.Just some examples of cognitive bias in engineering include ownership bias: the preferencetowards one ideas over the ideas of others (Toh et al., 2016; Zheng & Miller, 2019

Not surprisingly, today’s prospective students are most likely to citepreparation for a job as the number one reason they are considering a college education[3].Coming of age during the economic recession of 2008, Generation Z is pragmatic and seeksvalue in a degree that they see as critical to landing a job down the road.
