bioethical dilemmas is critical in creating a biomedical engineering curriculum thatemphasizes risks and harms in unintended consequences and virtuous character development whendesigning novel technologies. Advances in gene editing, such as “CRISPR babies,” have brought forth new ethicaldilemmas. Brain-computer interfacing companies, such as Neuralink, force us to consider what webelieve to be “unnatural.” Integrating these questions into a traditional curriculum can bechallenging, and measuring its success can be even more difficult. A study published from 1997 -2001 by Robert E. McGinn [4] found a disparity between students' desired ethics training and thetraining they received.

Over time various computer software programs have been developedto allow for a more expansive computerized mapping technique that promotes the opportunityfor a more in depth look at the data. For example, CmapTools software is now free for downloadand utilizes a more expansive platform to organize and wade through large amounts of data vsjust a tool to represent the data [3]. In this study the software used was Group Wisdom.Despite the increase in the use of concept mapping there is limited research on the effects ofconcept mapping in education research and especially related to reaching group consensus.

STEMengagement, and their engineering identities [11], [12]. One study found that among first-yearcollege students interested in engineering, self-reported engagement in various STEM-relatedexperiences were predictive of their engineering identities [13]. However, young women’sengagement with tinkering and computer programming was associated with lower levels ofidentification with engineering. Overall, research reveals that understanding the factors thatcontribute to young women’s engineering identities is critical, as those with strong identities aremore likely to persist in engineering [14], [15].Similar to engineering identity, intentions to pursue an engineering major are highly predictiveof STEM college persistence and interest in a STEM career [16

“limit” may refer to a limit state (in the reliability sense) or a mathematicallimit. The term “variation” may refer to variability in a statistical sense, or be part of the phrase“calculus of variations.” Finally, the term “error” has widely diverging definitions andinterpretations across disciplines, even within engineering 16. While it would be possible tocategorize the use of these terms on an individual-textbook case, this resolution of investigationwas outside the scope of the present work.We detect the presence of selected index terms per-book and use this to compute statistics; we donot provide any additional weight to multiple occurrences.

Even in social interactions where concepts were negotiated,tools such as design manuals were used to alleviate uncertainty in conceptual representations.Furthermore, reliance on tools was evident in the constant use of computer software to completeabstract conceptual calculations and context-based drawings and simulations. The use of designsoftware, spreadsheets, traffic analysis software, and practical texts were often used to resolveproblematic features of concepts in a timelier, more efficient manner than without these tools.When these tools were not able to fully resolve a concept in design, members of the design teamwould consult other members of the team with experience and sometimes

Standard firetests developed by a number of institutions (e.g. ASTM, NFPA, UL) are often called byprescriptive fire safety codes such as the NFPA101 Life Safety Code [1]. These codes oftenspecify fire protection design requirements based on material classifications determined usingstandard fire tests.

There was a well-developed scientific community involved in this industry, but it wasnot well served by engineering. Engineers who entered this field were trained in one of the othertraditional disciplines and learned the biological disciplines as they got involved to solve theproblems. Consequently, many engineering solutions were developed by MD’s and scientistswho saw the needs even though they were not trained in engineering or business.

$2,688,384,127,000Conclusions The research showed that engineering students can learn to generate a set of energy plansusing genetic algorithms. The students demonstrated that they can learn to form and revise theirown specialized genetic algorithms based on crossover and mutation operators and based on theparticular application such as complex energy systems. They were able to formulate the energyplans in the form of spreadsheets using tools such as Microsoft Excel and then apply the geneticoperators to the plan components and finally use the add-in solvers to optimize the plans. Thismethod can be applied to other plans for complex systems Planning and implementing cheaper, more abundant and more efficient energy systems will
