, lecture, lab, and discussion sections.Through the course, students examine positionality, power, and language in the context ofsocially engaged design. Students write positionality statements before they begin their projectwork, we provide readings and discussion about social power in the engineering design process,and we examine how language can make information more or less accessible to specificaudiences. Course assignments and lectures present ethics and engineering work as necessarilyintertwined. For example, students learned the fundamentals of nuclear science and engineeringalongside qualitative research methods and completed a community engagement workshop.Additional assigned readings and videos offer opportunities to reflect on user

creativity [3]. However, many mechanical engineering curriculums haveseen only minor modifications over decades [4]. Furthermore, effective communication meanseffective use of current communication methods and tendencies, including awareness ofdiversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). How many of those skills are taught and valued in the firstthree years of the curriculum?This paper provides an example of how to implement a couple of those concepts into a mid-yearengineering fundamentals course without reducing the learning gains or adding more work toalready busy students and faculty.The paper is organized in the following order. First, the courses offered in 2019, 2020, and 2021are described, followed by a description of pedagogy associated with

. Analyze their lab data and write an effective final laboratory reportThe project assignment included in this course will address the first student learning objective of“demonstrate the ability to design various microfabrication processes.” The course also supportssome of the student outcomes at the program level, but the outcome of “an ability to designsystems, components, or processes meeting specified needs for broadly defined engineeringproblems appropriate to the discipline” is primarily chosen to be assessed using the projectassignment in this course. It also supports the program educational objective of “can functioneffectively in open-ended activities involving applications, design, analysis, andimplementation.”Overview of Energy

expected to be an important consideration as the electricalgeneration section is expected to move from fossil fuel to non-CO2 emitting power generation. Thecurrent fossil fuel workforce represents an opportunity (both for workers and the industry) as theseworkers may be able to transition to other energy sectors. Transitioning workers will need to understan dand appreciate fundamental concepts of nuclear technology and the overall culture of nuclear powergeneration and operations. To assure a robust future workforce pipeline, the development of generaleducational content to communicate the advantages of nuclear power and the possibility of a nuclearcareer is also an outcome within Task 4. Thirdly, our task is to include online modules, internships
