small numbers, these papers express ambitions and concerns that become increasinglyprominent and more fully developed in the periods of high activity that we say more aboutbelow. To various extents, all of the applied STS papers reflect a growing awareness that the newABET criteria and the emergence of STS (understood as both “science, technology, and society”and “science and technology studies”) create new opportunities for non-technical disciplines(typically categorized as humanities and social sciences) in engineering education. The authorsof the applied papers all focus on the limitations of disciplinary approaches and often addressunintended negative consequences of engineering education as traditionally delivered andexperienced.All of the
