engineering students often dothe opposite: they focus on social (and sometimes SJ) dimensions but exclude technical ones.With the exception of Science and Technology Studies (STS) and occasionally ProfessionalCommunication and Engineering Ethics, most HSS disciplines rarely try to bridge the social andthe technical. Combined, this dichotomy of the engineering curriculum into the technical(engineering sciences) and the social (HSS), with perhaps some occasional (yet often superficial)sociotechnical integration in engineering design, constitutes a disservice to future engineers.Engineers-to-be need to practice thinking not just technically or socially, but sociotechnically.By practicing sociotechnical thinking, engineering students can improve their
