Standards Institute (ANSI), in collaboration with other national organizations, hasdeveloped the United States Standards Strategy (USSS) that states that simple familiarity withstandards is not enough but that there is need for firm education on the fundamentals of standardsand their respective implementation.1It is widely recognized that engineering students do not get much exposure to standards while inschool.2-4 Through a study done in 2004, it was revealed that standards education was notconsidered a priority at the institutions surveyed.5 However, employers have expectations thatnew hires have knowledge of standards and their applications.3,4Additionally, many standards developing organizations (SDO) encounter difficulties inrecruiting the

of philosophy and engineering is expected to contribute to the field ofengineering epistemology and be of interest to the broader community of engineers andengineering educators. The so-called epistemological distance (a measure of differences inknowledge and ways of knowing) among disciplines can create a barrier or a precondition to shyaway from potentially productive cross-disciplinary communications and collaborations. Thiswork also hopes to play a gap-bridging role, such as remarkable contributions of others 7 who inauthor’s judgment were successful in preserving accessibility to a broad base of engineeringaudience in their efforts toward a philosophy of engineering. In addition, the present paper is aresult of a newly initiated effort
