To improvefluency and flow, in writing and speaking, a topical focus on ethical issues has served to linkspecialized technical information to broader social communication that ultimately helps connectsstudents to greater communication opportunities.IntroductionPh.D. engineering students and faculty alike understand the critical need to communicateeffectively in order to lead research projects, teach, mentor, write papers and proposals, and togenerally

Considering that individualstudents approach the librarians for instruction on topics such as strategies for literature reviews,or that individual faculty members approach the librarians for instruction to the students in theirlabs on topics such as best resources for researching specific subjects or instruction on citationmanagement applications, one might reasonably conclude that there is an unmet need for a broadinstruction program.

struggle to make theconcomitant adjustments to their curricular culture. For example, an instructor might adoptclickers but ask superficial questions (e.g., where answers reflect varying numerical calculationsrather than underlying conceptual models) and find that student outcomes do not improve as theyhad hoped. Schein’s depiction of organizational culture differentiates surface-level features fromdeeper values and assumptions [3]. In the example above, the clicker was a surface-level artifactthat the instructor tried to duplicate, but the underlying curricular culture was missing.Thus, major changes to curriculum, such as the adoption of project-based learning or movingfrom lecture to studio formats, often involve cultural shifts.
