Students from previous years enjoy connecting to thecurrent groups using “their” motors or wheels.Teams budget parts purchased at auction in the same manner as purchased new components.Students gain insight into design for reuse, recycling, and the circular economy connecting ourstudy of ethics and sustainability to an applied project. Following the competition, studentsdisassemble their vehicles and complete a reusability report tabulating the percentage of theoverall vehicle cost that is reusable.

Students barely mentionedpersonal or social ethics, neither in school nor in the workforce. Organization was a skill thatwas not linked to a particular context but students agreed it to be a skill they had utilizedfrequently. All of the students described their work environment as independent-focused. Onestudent mentioned “guidance from [their] supervisor” throughout the placement, while theother student focused on their learning from doing. It seems from the conversations that manyof the students had more formal relationships with their supervisor, mirroring managers morethan mentors. This did adapt and

To maintain relevancy and competitiveness in engineeringeducation, hands-on learning experiences with a global perspective needs to be integrated intothe curriculum [10], [11]. We believe critical skills such as empathizing, weighing ethicalconsiderations and effective communication are needed by graduates to navigate the 21st centuryglobal societal needs [12] - [17]. These learning opportunities could allow them to learn andpractice empathetical and ethical decision making with people from diverse backgrounds.Central to this capability is to provide the students with experiential learning opportunities

Theinterdisciplinary nature of our program stems from the involvement of faculty and students fromthree departments that span three academic units at our university - Biomedical Engineering,Biological Sciences, and Animal Science. The goals of our program are to prepare students forcareers in stem cell research by providing them with 1) broad technical skills, 2) critical thinkingand problem solving skills, 3) familiarity with current research, 4) familiarity with the ethics andtheory of stem cell investigation, and 5) presentation and communication skills.To accomplish these goals, students

If engineering has only lately addressedresponsibilities that we have as a profession towards the health of the Earth, even less attentionhas been paid to the question of our professional responsibilities towards the poor.

A sophomore-level seminar in The Art and Scienceof Flow Visualization exposes students to these techniques and the science of fluid mechanics,and to the photographic methods needed to create effective images that are successful bothscientifically and artistically. Unlike other courses in flow visualization, this course assumes noa priori familiarity with fluid flow or with photography. The fundamentals of both are taughtand practiced in a studio setting. Students are engaged in an interdisciplinary discourse aboutfluids and physics, photography, scientific ethics, and historical societal responses to science andart. The
