. Synthesizing these two points, it is evident that inquiry-basedlaboratories require experts to create, administer, and assess. Unfortunately, the requirement forexpertise is directly contradictory to the current atmosphere in science education at large researchuniversities. Luft et al. (2004) provide an excellent discussion of TA culture in the sciences, andsummarize the issue by stating: “Ultimately, graduate students may even be told by their advisors that research should be a focus, and that teaching assistantships should not be held for multiple years because this will jeopardize their careers...Unfortunately the culture in which GTAs exist places them in a situation that is wrought with tension and difficult to change.”In

its focus on resources and purpose, is in an even closerrelationship to later-career, more open-ended engineering problem-solving than to early-careerengineering experiences. To ensure that an arts problem-solving experience could be beneficialto engineering students in the short term as well as the long term, we must, then, examine andcompare the roles problem-solving plays in both engineering and the arts. c. The Role of Problem-Solving in EngineeringProblem-solving has a central role in engineering because engineering, in the final analysis, isabout design under constraint. To appreciate why ‘problem-solving’ is central to engineeringdesign, consider the relationship between engineering and science.There is an outgroup-homogeneity

approach still leaves two questions unresolved.First, it is unclear whether it is realistic to expect that the global codes of ethics be used to guideengineering practice in different countries, beginning with their introduction to students informal coursework and later as guidelines for conduct in the workplace. Second, given thatAmerican societies encourage their members to apply their codes of ethics universally, theirforeign colleagues might know very little (if anything) about these codes. It might therefore beineffective or unfair for two sides of a collaboration to have an unbalanced understanding of thecodes of ethics that are supposed to guide their collaborative engineering practice.
