remained a difficult change foran established college was significantly easier to accomplish in a school built from scratch. Italso helped that aviation firms, for technical reasons13 as well as for reasons of a desperate labormarket, were willing to hire any and all engineers and offer them specialized training at “fullpay” on company time, as stated in the Lockheed ad. There was also the explicit expectation thatBoelter would develop a program complementary to the one at Berkeley. Finally, Boelter had nochoice but to begin with a single, unified curriculum. With but a limited appropriation, whichprovided no money for new buildings, Boelter opened the doors to his college in August 1945with a small handful of faculty and but 25 students. During

Cognitive innovation, for the purpose of thispaper, is defined as identifying and applying mental models to develop a more integrative way ofthinking about complex global problem for a solution economy. Secondly, examples of howcritical thinking/problem-solving skills are applied to study complex global sustainabilityproblems during the undergraduate general education experience will be provided. Subsequently,examples of how students apply these skills during their major’s course work, including theculminating Honors Thesis are provided. It should be noted that while there are many otherentrepreneurial skills developed throughout this curriculum by

the obvious benefit tosociety, socially conscious computing endeavors to exploit the finding that students’ desire tohave a positive societal impact is a strong determinant regarding their choice of career theychoose [40]. It is worth noting that this positive societal impact is considered an inclusive term,and therefore, it includes sustainability [7], ICT4D [8], ICT4Peace [9], value sensitive design[10] and so on. We wanted our students to learn to make positive social change through themobile application development course where design and development for socially consciouscomputing were weaved into the curriculum using various strategies. Through our course, wewanted to teach the following two primary knowledge areas to the upper-level CS

Sauerand Arce’s [5] work offers a parallelism between sports teams and academic teams wherein theirview is that the team members are intimately coupled to the functions needed to complete a task,and they must work in harmony among the different team members to do it. This observation is alsotransferable and of value for a team of researchers working collaboratively to achieve the goal ofdeveloping a research proposal supported by the Foundry as a guiding protocol (see Section 3).After a team has been formed, a potential struggle to find successful
