The content for the three existing courses emphasized a variety of programminglanguages to develop students’ skills. COSC 1010 uses a high-level language (MATLAB) tointroduce programming concepts, program debug skills, and general solution development forcomputer and other technical programs. COSC 1030 and COSC 2030 provide a more in-depthlook at programming, this time at the machine level, commonly referred to as “assemblerlanguage level.” Again, the emphasis is on problem-solution development, program debug, andunderstanding machine operation

IntroductionEngineering curriculum frequently focuses on technical, analytical, and decision makingknowledge and skills, evident by the common focus of courses on math and physics principles[1]–[3]. Course problem sets and projects routinely focus on determining variables and solvingequations where there is one “right” answer [4]. However, engineering work is inherently bothtechnical and social [5], [6]. To address major problems of today’s world, engineering studentsneed to develop contextual and cultural competencies, ethical responsibility, and socialengagement knowledge and skills, as well as the ability to work across disciplinary boundaries[7]–[10]. Engagement in these skills, which we collectively call “comprehensive engineeringknowledge and skills”, are
