Working within theseconstrains compels engineers to rely upon heuristics and intuition. Intuition is an amalgam oftheoretical education, practical experience, cultural insight, and creativity. Contending withintuition can be challenging because it can be difficult to articulate, much less defend. However,intuition is the outflow from creative cognition [2].Both psychological and sociological forces work against engineers embracing creativity. Theseinclude group dynamics and self-identification. Conducting creativity exercises in an engineeringclass by
