, requiring all students, regardlessof major, to take courses in a variety of subject areas. These general education courses are oftenconsidered by engineering students to be unrelated to their chosen profession and are thereforeseen merely as hoops to be jumped through on the way to graduation. However, these coursesmake up a significant percentage of students’ overall credit requirements, and represent a mostlyuntapped opportunity to meaningfully incorporate the global and societal context required byABET into an engineering degree program. By partnering with the humanities and social sciencefaculty who teach these distribution requirements, engineering programs have an opportunity toreclaim this portion of the university experience, making it a
