Empathy impactscommunication [26], design processes [27], professional success [28], ethics [29], and the overallculture of engineering [24]. In this paper, a framework of empathy developed within theneurosciences is adopted. Decety & Moriguchi [30] neuroscience approach to empathy hasestablished four components of empathy: affective sharing, self-awareness, emotion regulation,perspective taking & mental flexibility. Affective sharing means one can reflect upon the feelingsof another. Self-awareness allows one to distinguish the self from the experience of another.Perspective

Although twoengineering courses were offered on that Spring 2002 voyage (Professional Ethics andIntroduction to Environmental Engineering), there were only seven engineering students out of620 onboard. As a result, science and business majors made up the bulk of the students in bothcourses. Nevertheless, this provided an opportunity to create engineering oriented courses thatwould be “voyage relevant” and would integrate field experience with coursework.

The SaS framework defines Christian stewardship as theresponsibility Christians have to actively manage and make use of the resources God hasentrusted to them in a manner consistent with God’s commands and character. This idea can bemost succinctly captured by 1 Corinthians 4:2, which states “Now it is required that those whohave been given a trust must prove faithful” [13].
