The REU programaimed to provide participants with a research experience integrating the best aspects ofacademic applied research (e.g., theoretical basis and rigorous scholarship) with essentialbusiness practices (e.g., real-world customer discovery and developing sound business models).The participants were divided into five research groups based on their project preferences. Eachgroup, consisting of two to three students, was led by a faculty advisor, totaling five facultyadvisors for the program.

to meet the ethicsrequirements in EC2000, being able to apply ethical theories (such as virtue ethics) and theNational Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) code of ethics to the evaluation of alternativesolutions in an ethics case study was a desirable first step (e.g. [10]). However, when selectingcase studies, some educators were already split over using real-world cases (e.g. [11, 12]) orfictional cases (e.g. [13]). The Internet had already made possible the proliferation andavailability of both types of case studies by the 2000s, including webpages from the OnlineEthics Center for Engineering and Science, the NSPE, the Institute of Electrical and ElectronicsEngineers (IEEE), the Center for the Study of Ethics in the Professions (CSEP

Microorganisms mutate toresist medications both spontaneously and as a result of the overuse and misuse of antimicrobialdrugs, poor infection control practices, environmental exposure, and easy travel [4], [5], [6], [7].The World Health Organization has determined that this is a worldwide public health threat andhas urged all countries to develop plans for managing and decreasing AMR within theircountries. The United States has made a National Action Plan that outlines the nation’s prioritiesfor combatting AMR. It has been found that the overall number of U.S. AMR-related deaths fellby 18% from 2012 to 2017, though some of this progress has been attributed
