Other educators focus on aspecific class at a time to find ways of reframing technical content in a way that invites learningabout social and political factors [11, 12]. Our capstone course design is in line with theseapproaches and we contribute to the research with an analysis that aims to understand howtechnical and human-centered mindsets manifested in the students’ experiences.A related set of research endeavors aim to integrate social and ethical considerations withtechnical computing content.

The topic is firstintroduced through an in-class discussion during a lecture. Students are asked to take a fewminutes (3-5) to discuss the potential impacts with a neighbor or in an online breakout room. Thetopic is re-enforced and assessed through an additional homework question (the homeworkquestion has students to calculate the change in flow from a specific storm and to describe

Narrowly-trained engineers will not have the necessary expertise totackle real problems that pay no heed to disciplinary boundaries. Engineers need exposure to arange of specialties within engineering, and as importantly, need social science knowledge that itnot only complementary to, but also deeply integrated with, traditional engineering knowledge.Take climate change for example.

The students assumed therole of managers of an international team of engineers from their assigned countries and had todetermine how to lead the team effectively.
