theirdevelopment as skilled communicators. Relying solely on AI can lead to a decline in criticalthinking and creativity. It is important to carefully consider the ethical implications of using AI-generated content, particularly in academic and professional settings, where the boundarybetween AI assistance and plagiarism could become less clear. Additionally, the potential misuseof personal information and data security concerns related to AI writing tools should bethoroughly examined. It's worth noting that AI tools may encounter challenges in understandingcomplex contexts, cultural references, and emotional subtleties, potentially leading tomisinterpretations in the generated content.The ”AI Writing Tools” used for the analysis are listed in Table 1

The class looks at topics from professionalism to ethics, from presentation to peopleskills, from project management to international cultures. These issues are more important thanever in an engineering environment that is very dynamic and involves frequent transitionsbetween employers and job functions. Numerous assessments of personality styles are addressedalong with needs and motivation assessments. Because of the changing

the ability to work together while solving an open-ended designproblem, and being able to overcome any obstacles that arise. These obstacles involve differingwork ethics, personalities, and communication styles. Inevitably, these differences can lead toconflict, and a need to resolve disagreements within the team. These ever-present emotionalaspects to working in a team are found not only in student projects, but also on the projects theywill be working on once they graduate. Finding the skills as a student to successfully navigatethe myriad of issues that may arise when working with others, sets student up for success in theirengineering careers after graduation, as shown by Jones (1996) [1] and Seat et al.

For example, Dr. Madani shared: “I just want to be on the record as saying I am flat-out straight against entrepreneurship because as a scientist, I don’t want our students to grow up thinking, “I’m making this to sell it.” I am 100% supportive of entrepreneurship mindset” (Madani Interview, 04/29/2021)Dr. Madani’s exemplar animates the challenges some women STEM faculty

For mostof the engineering courses, the focus question can be ‘how to design in engineering ’? The nextstep is to identify a few concepts that are pertinent to the question. In engineering design, we usemath and science to find solutions for engineering problems. But in the process of arriving atsolutions to problems, we should be conscious and consider questions of ethics, safety, empathy,human interface, and other values.

These groups are split into smaller concentrations with specific specialties. Despitethe concentrations
