The patterns discovered in the analysis fell into three broad themes: CareerProfile, Discipline Profile, and Discipline Meta-Profile. Career Profile addressed the types ofenvironments in which IEs work, as well as the level of status they feel it is possible to attain.Within Discipline Profile, participants compared IE with other branches of engineering,indicating that IE is more people-oriented, broader, and more systems oriented. Discipline Meta-Profile emerged from students’ perceptions of how other engineers perceive IE as a discipline.Participants used soft, easy, or imaginary engineering to express how they feel many of

Robin Fowler is a Technical Communication lecturer and a Engineering Education researcher at the University of Michigan. Her teaching is primarily in team-based engineering courses, and her research focuses on equity in communication and collaboration as well as in group design decision making (judgment) under uncertainty. She is especially interested in how power relationships and rhetorical strategies affect group judgment in engineering design; one goal of this work is to to understand factors that inhibit full participation of students who identify with historically marginalized groups and investigate evidence-based strategies for mitigating these inequities. In addition, she is interested in technology and how

In addition, what is legal may notbe ethical. The case of cancer cells removed from Henrietta Lacks without her knowledge orpermission is a famous ethical case study. The use of HeLa cells to test cancer treatments, tostudy the human genome, and to develop the Polio vaccine has saved millions of lives.

As an asset-based framework C2WEST considers the scope and categorizes the capitals of CCW in Blackengineering students. We look specifically at the aspirational wedge in the C2WEST frameworkto explain the aspirations evidenced in interviews with two Black engineering students. Ourmotivation for using this framework is to be able to inform both students and engineeringeducators about ways to categorize and define the aspirational capital of students

processes of disciplinary and professionalenculturation affect core values. In taking this approach, we take up the call to become “ethicalengineers”: “Moral philosophers become ethical engineers who use their expertise in ethicaltopics to criticize existing “moral technology” and construct new concepts, tools, and theoriesthat better answer the current challenges for living a good life” [13]. Moral foundations theory isjust such an emerging moral technology with the potential to answer some of the key challengesof engineering ethics.3.

It is evident that the U.S. engineering community must increase its focus on sharing and disseminating information, knowledge and technology that provides access to minerals, materials, energy, water, food and public health while addressing basic human needs. Engineers must deliver solutions that are technically viable, commercially feasible, and environmentally and socially sustainable.5Clearly, sustainability education will play a major role in providing society with engineers whoare environmentally conscious and critically aware of the global engineering

architecture and graphic design the emphasis is similar to engineering, while in fine arts the emphasis is not oriented to solving problems for people.Hence the act of Design is the fundamental mode of operation of an engineer. In our teachingwe must reflect this; we must teach problem solving and creative design. George Polya explainedthe four main steps well in his book ``How to solve it.''4 First one must understand the problem,then devise a solution, then put the solution into practice, and the reflect on the solution (both toevaluate and to reuse parts of it). While the book was about mathematical problem solving itapplies well in many areas of Engineering.This leads to our approach to teaching Design. Students must emerge from our programs
