Moreimportantly why should humanities education be integrated in such a course of study, tohave “full membership in the community of engineering educators”?Engineering itself might be characterized as the art of fitting means with ends forpractical results — results that make life much easier. Mathematical formulas,employed by the engineer, seem to draw from an abstract realm durable truths thatmanifest themselves in the reliability of

Security concerns will continue to be important criteria, which will shape the future of embedded systems. Therefore, incorporating security concepts in the design of embedded systems becomes a life-learning behavior, which will shape the professional behavior of future embedded systems engineers.

Both classes were required to do Internet and library research and to seekinformation from other professionals through personal interviews, tours, phone calls and e-mail.This was done in an effort to help the students develop their research skills and to help themunderstand how to apply information gained from their research to solve a problem.
