would not have the time required to complete high-qualityreports; especially as some of the international participants were non-native English speakers.3 ResultsDuring the final week of the SSEF program, one-on-one exit interviews were conducted betweenone of the organizers and each of the participating students. These data were originally collectedfor continuous improvement of the initiative, however secondary use of these data wassubsequently approved by the institutional ethics board for research purposes (Office of ResearchEthics #45798). Of the 9 total participants, 7 provided consent to include their interviewtranscripts in any published research, with at least one participant providing consent from eachparticipating institution

. You can't use the excuse that it's a technical job to deny its interpersonal attributes, because your products will always end up being used by a person. (S7)Many students have reported a heightened sense of social responsibility as engineers. Onestudent expressed that 'the training of engineers is the training of a person' (S2). They havebecome significantly more attuned to the societal aspects of engineering and the importanceof integrating social and ethical dimensions into their work. Human-centered issues, such asecology, environmental protection, and life cycle considerations, now occupy a much moreprominent place in their consciousness.Linking theory with practice.

overcome any obstacles that they might havefaced. This is evident when looking for reasons why engineering students drop out. To nosurprise, there are a plethora of pitfalls an individual can make, with no recognition of theinstitutional hurdles that act as gatekeepers in perpetuating the current makeup of engineering as“pale and male” [62, p. 9]. As listed by industry and blogger articles, reasons that students dropout of engineering programs include: poor work ethic, inability to deal with failure, and lackingthe engineering mindset [63]. It is common talk among engineers that when trying to explain the dearth of women andPOC in engineering, meritocracy is used to justify by stating things such as “they aren’t cut outto be an engineer” or

essential for the creation of attitudesrelated to solving social problems as well as for developing the abilities that could help them. This vision has been appropriated for American engineering curricula considering thatengineering can have a humanistic approach through specific courses or methodologies, theassessment of their activities from a perspective of the ethics, and the reflection about therelationship between engineering and technology, including its impacts [8]. In that sense, themain objective is deconstructing engineering from a utilitarian perspective, based on effectivityand loyalty to institutions, to reconstruct it in a libertarian or communitarian perspective based

work together. It is unclear if these students, the majority of whom areGeneration Z, tend to think of themselves as self-reliant or if the COVID-19 pandemiclockdowns have made lasting effects of isolationism in their work ethics. Another possibleexplanation comes from students lacking confidence in the advice or feedback from peers, as onecomment stated (Q18).3.3 Perceived Design and CAD Skills and Students’ Benefits After Design ReviewMore than half of the students agreed with the statement that they had strong CAD and designskills coming into the course, much higher than anticipated when examining the Part II surveyresponses. The question then becomes about who benefits from design review and how. Basedon the students’ perceived design
