IntroductionThe study of System Dynamics and Control requires a genuine multi-disciplinary approach tointegrate principles in various engineering disciplines (mechanical, electrical, computer,information technology, etc.) to develop optimal strategy for solving a contemporary engineeringproblem. Many educators have developed various forms of pedagogy for the improvement ofteaching-and-learning of this important subject1-10.

. In response to the above, and as part of a revision to the core curriculum to provideamong other goals a more engaging and less onerous first year along with more choice, a newapproach has been taken that attempts to preserve those elements of the Engineering Seminarthat were valued by the students while offering a more flexible, engaging format. A two-semester sequence, E101-102 Engineering Experiences, has been introduced. The approach is tooffer students a variety of experiences and events scheduled throughout the freshman year.Coupled with this new two-semester course has been a change to the advising system wherebyan advisor is assigned to the incoming student based on his/her anticipated engineeringdiscipline.

Anend of semester survey was given to students only taking the design class, taking the classsimultaneously with a capstone seminar course that included more traditional ethics curriculum,and only taking the capstone seminar course. Results indicate that integrating ethics assignmentsinto design courses can complement traditional ethics instruction. Students enrolled in bothclasses responded with more consistent ethical decision outcomes, where students acknowledgeother perspectives and were less likely to select decisions that avoid responsibility for theiractions. Student responses also indicated a positive experience with the new content deliverymethod.IntroductionEthics instruction in the engineering curriculum is fraught with

In the past, this topic has been approached through the analyses of case studiesusing prescribed strategies to solve an ethical dilemma. A new ethics module has beendeveloped that uses a modification of the phenomenological approach described above. A pilottest will be used to compare our current ethics analysis method and the phenomenologicalapproach. Both approaches will be evaluated using pre- and post

engineerAbstractIn the fall of 2004 a college with five undergraduate academic programs decided to integrateservice-learning (S-L) projects into required engineering courses throughout the curriculum sothat students would be exposed to S-L in at least one course in each of eight semesters. Theultimate goal is to graduate better engineers and better citizens. Four of the degree programshave achieved on average one course each semester, with an actual coverage of 103 out of 128semester courses, or 80% coverage over the four years. Of the 32 required courses in theacademic year that had an average of 753 students each semester doing S-L projects related tothe subject matter of the course, 19 of the courses (60%) were considered engineering science,that is, not
