research seeks tounderstand the forces that motivate educators to blend engineering learning with liberal studies,the institutional and pedagogical strategies used in different integrative programs, and theimpacts of liberal learning on students’ understandings of engineering and its social context. Inthis paper, I focus on a subset of the research questions posed for the dissertation: ● What motivates students to study engineering in a liberal education environment? ● In what ways does the experience of “a liberal education for engineers” assist students’ personal growth and career development? ● To what extent does students’ understanding of engineering take into account the social dimensions?MethodsMy dissertation

I learned a lot by doing homework and applying it in the lab.• Manufacturing performance models, quality engineering, project management• Mechatronics needs to be taught. The electro-mechanic-computer controlled mechanisms transcend all of our industries, from the food and bottling industry to metal removal and joining to the process industries..."• Include international opportunities, hybrid teaching, management and social skills for graduate level.• Manufacturing enterprises need a full spectrum of knowledge from
nanoscience and technology into existing requiredundergraduate engineering courses. Introducing the concepts of nanoscience and engineering atthis early stage of undergraduate education was found to positively impact student interest inregistering for a technical elective nanotechnology course that we developed as our secondinitiative. Under our third initiative, a limited number of undergraduates well-imbued with thisfoundational perspective were recruited and financially supported to engage in a semester-longresearch project related to nanotechnology. The efforts made by the NUE team have befittedmechanical undergraduate students at sophomore, junior and senior levels. While theNanotechnology-I and nanotechnology-II course have jointly attracted
