Paper ID #18325Engineers’ Imaginaries of ”the Public”: Content Analysis of FoundationalProfessional DocumentsDr. Yanna Lambrinidou, Virginia Tech Yanna Lambrinidou is a medical ethnographer and affiliate faculty in the Department of Science and Technology in Society (STS) at Virginia Tech. For the past 10 years, she has conducted extensive research on the historic 2001-2004 Washington, DC lead-in-drinking-water contamination. This work exposed wrongdoing and unethical behavior on the part of engineers and scientists in local and federal government agencies. In 2010, Dr. Lambrinidou co-conceived and co-developed the
systems. As a tenure-track faculty member and Chair of the University of Detroit Mercy Mechanical Engineering department, he has developed a program of instruction that promotes student-lead design of assistive technology products for people with disabilities. The guiding principle is that student project work is more meaningful and fulfilling when students have the opportunity to experience interaction with real live ”customers.” Dr. Kleinke is currently the Director of the Graduate Engineering Professional Programs, emphasizing Systems Engineering and Graduate Product Development programs. In addition to academic work, Dr Kleinke continues his involvement in industry as he conducts seminars on innovation which are

How are nationality (and nationalisms) conforming the experiences of Engineeringteachers and learners? We ask, that is, how it is that an individual identifies themself with bothan ethnic or national collective and the putative universality of technoscience, or finds themselfstruggling to do so.For this brief overview of interrogative possibilities, we work with the case of two influentialnodes of global engineering education as they functioned in an especially fraught geopoliticalmoment: the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the United States and SharifUniversity (previously Aryamehr University of Technology) in

Today’s students have access to a plethoraof digital information and are quickly adapting to new technologies. Addressing the continuingchallenges in maintaining students’ motivation and success requires new approaches to teachingintroductory topics in engineering courses. In typical engineering class, traditional teachingapproaches, such as chalkboard talks and PowerPoint presentations are often utilized, this oftenpresents the issue of unidirectional communication and passive learning. While students haveaccess to many online education resources such as YouTube and
