The fact thathundreds of millions of people are suffering from hunger, poverty, and lack of health care,education, water, safety, and shelter, is a clear reason that we need to change the way weare doing and being engineers. Martin and colleagues [7] claimed that effecting change inthe status quo of engineering education and research requires adopting a critical and self-reflective approach that encompasses socioeconomic and cultural contexts, geographicaldifferences, prevalent biases, and cognitive assumptions.

]. Since 2000, the image of education for competitiveness has also come to refer (both insideand outside the United States) to the career challenges of individual engineers participating in theglobalization of industry. If industry has gone multinational, then individual engineers must gain“global competence” in order to successfully locate employment and build careers [33]. By 2004, the National Science Foundation (NSF) had officially embraced the image ofeconomic competitiveness as grounding organizational mandates.
