Both successful as well as unsuccessful systems engineering practices areabsorbed before the students enter the engineering workplace.IntroductionMost electrical engineering and electrical engineering technology curricula focus on specificaspects of electrical engineering, such as circuits, motors, communication systems, etc.However, it is rare to find an undergraduate class whose purpose is to not only look at electricalengineering and technology from a systems level, but also to look at how the electrical systemintegrates with mechanical systems. Furthermore, very few classes ever discuss real-worldaspects of the reliability and design limitations associated with putting a real-world design intopractice

We must find ways to promote change in engineering faculty for this new opportunity in engineering educational scholarship.

This distinction is often hard to appreciate for individual engineers (especially those engineers intraining (engineering students) that we work with every day). For them, a regulation is a regulation regardlessof its origin. However, there is often some leverage to be found in reminding engineers that these regulationswere not imposed upon them by some outside, non-engineering body. They were, instead imposed upon themby other engineers, who, having decided what they want to require from their profession, have imposed uponprofessional engineers certain legal requirements. Thus, there is an argument to be made that the requirementthat “ethics and equity” and the “impact of technology on
