There areexceptions, perhaps even increasingly so; these “exceptional” courses may be seen as part of alarger movement in engineering education to integrate ethics, human-centered design, leadershipdevelopment and community-based project work—considerations of people, in other words—into more traditional technical coursework [2] - [5].At the center of this paper is one such course newly offered at Stanford in the winter term of2017.
