This quantitative study is guided by the following research questions:RQ1: What is the relationship between the empathy and innovation amongst engineering students?RQ2: To what extent are empathic tendencies predictive of innovative behavioral tendencies?Using a model developed out of social psychology,13 we define empathy as a multi-facetedphenomenon built upon four distinct sub-constructs: (a) fantasy, (b) perspective-taking, (c)empathic concern, and (d) personal distress.

3400 or ENGR 3600 do not have a strong design component; however, these courses do teach systems as a sociological methodology, which can be applied to economic, environmental, social, political, and ethical issues relating science and engineering practice. ENGR3400 focuses one-third of the course on ethical and value issues as they relate to science and engineering. B. An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility: One of three units in ENGR 3400 is dedicated to ethics as they relate to entrepreneurs involved in the development of the Internet.

In all except one case, the courses were taughtby one of the members of our research team (these instructors are also all co-authors on thispaper) and included some elements of sociotechnical
