designed to foster a more inclusive and socially consciousengineering identity, highlighting the importance of ethical considerations in engineeringpractices. This integration is crucial for preparing future engineers to address complex real-worldproblems that span beyond technical solutions.The existing computing course (Introduction to Computing for Engineering, typically taken bymost engineering students in the spring semester of their first-year) historically was focused onteaching the technical concepts of coding and an introduction to data science (data manipulation,visualization, and interpretation). The experimental redesign of the course involves incorporatingjustice-based activities that encourage students to analyze ethically complex

The assessment of the course by students hasled to increased hands-on projects, multimedia technology usage, computer simulations, andassignments linked more closely to real-world applications.I. IntroductionES 107, Introduction to Engineering, is a three semester-hour course introducing students toengineering disciplines, professional practice and ethics, creative problem solving, basic computerskills, team skills, and technical presentations. The course is required for all freshman engineeringstudents and a majority of non-engineering majors at the University of New Haven take it as ascientific

The American students rated themselves higher increativity, teamwork, ethics, facility with tools of engineering practice, and in recognizing globalimpact. The Korean students assessed their skills higher in design, problem solving, andcommunication skills. There was no statistically significant difference in leadership or analyticalskills. However, in spite of apparent national differences, the students follow similar genderpatterns. The men were more confident in technical and analytical skills, while the women weremore confident in communication and teamwork skills. As such, both cultures could benefit frominterventions that

The code for these chips is available(usually for purchase) so multiple chips can be fabricated in one chip (called a System-on-a-Chip). Our digital systems design course incorporates this concept. Students learnto integrate 3rd-party modules into their own digital designs and are encouraged to useany free modules they find on the internet. However, every module must be documentedand cited correctly for good engineering ethics. Students may use modules developed byother students in previous semesters as long as proper documentation is included.Since previous laboratory work is available to next semester students, the

The instructor of thisengineering design course often communicates the love for the teaching profession and the joy in thesuccess of the students. This kind of passion is contagious to students.Ethical BehaviorCoaches must model ethical behavior on and off the court.
