Society for Engineering Education, 2024 Towards a Philosophy of Engineering Education LaboratoriesAbstractMost engineering educators agree that laboratories are a key part of the engineering curriculum,but there is less agreement about what labs are to accomplish. This ambiguity may be partiallyattributed to changing views in science more broadly about the role of experimentation andparallel changes in emphasis on lab education throughout the twentieth century. Whenlaboratories are seen as practical necessities, their perceived importance decreases. At present,many are returning to the view that laboratories play a key epistemic role. This paper develops arole for philosophy in understanding the purpose of laboratories. Concepts from

The curriculum was based in both service learning and engineering designwithin a global context. The Lwala Community Alliance of Kenya "hired" the participants towork on two projects.

et al. [11] conducted a study of gendered interests and careeroutcome expectations in engineering. They found that within engineering programs, the gendergap disappeared in biomedical engineering, where female students expressed strongerassociations with “helping others,” while for electrical and computer engineering, femalestudents expressed less interest and associated the disciplines with “inventing/designing things”[11, p.298].Furthermore, students’ networks of support are also highly uneven. Though networks of support,especially those including family members and friends with disciplinary experience, are crucialto student success, students from underrepresented communities are less likely to have thesenetworks.

When students struggled because of the inaccessibility ofsuch a broad problem, instructors mentioned that evaporative cooling could be used to keepmedicines cool in situations without electricity. This led to a deterministic high-ceilingedproblem as almost all students used this example as their project. The initial grading rubricemphasized technical aspects, and most students did not integrate sociotechnical context intotheir designs. With the COVID-19 pandemic, the need to keep vaccines cool

At present, most students have access to laboratory equipment only duringscheduled lab times for 2-3 hours per week and laboratory experiments are one-off procedure“cook-book” modules rather than extended projects [8]. Increases in computing power haveenabled new types of remote-control laboratory equipment accessed from home, smallinexpensive kits that can be shipped to students, and advanced simulation software rather thanhardware experimentation [8] [6].Laboratories have been relatively less studied in the literature than other parts of the engineeringcurriculum and what results exist suggest a potentially negative impact of laboratories on studentepistemology.

By equipping graduates with a morecomprehensive skill set and deeper understanding of the field, it is hypothesized that they will bebetter positioned to secure higher-paying jobs and contribute more effectively to the economy.Moreover, to gain exposure to modern technologies used in the industry, students need to gettrained with the latest tools and techniques. An extension of the degree program allows thestudents to delve deeper into these modern technologies and gain hands-on experience thatdirectly aligns with industry requirements. To achieve this goal, the addition of specializedcourses and internships into the curriculum will ensure that graduates are well-prepared to enterthe workforce and excel in their

The framework presented by Jesiek et al. [20] wasdeveloped through a literature search of global engineering case studies, along with interviewsand focus groups with global engineers. The resulting framework describes three dimensions ofglobal engineering competency. Technical coordination refers to the informal management tasksengineers perform in working with others to complete their projects.
