Design and Engineering Science within an Inclusive Framework of Professional PracticeAbstractEngineering design continues to be focal point in undergraduate engineering education.Developments over the past two decades include a body of literature of design course andcurriculum models, the emergence of research and scholarship in teaching and learningengineering design, and the emergence of a discipline of engineering education. Ongoingchallenges include an artificial separation of engineering science and engineering design in theundergraduate curriculum, definitions of engineering design that are at odds with engineeringdesign in practice, and a perceived lack of visibility of engineering within larger

. Integrating forced displacement into engineeringeducation offers an opportunity to expose students to the potential of using their technical skillsto address complex societal challenges. It can also demonstrate the limitations of approachingsuch issues from a single perspective and the shortcomings of working within isolateddisciplines. Though the aim of such a course is to instill in students a long-term desire to engagewith the issue of forced displacement, framing concepts this way can also empower students totackle similarly complex issues requiring interdisciplinary thinking beyond their time in theclassroom.

require a paradigm shift in re-conceptualizing their role as a teacher. Due to this difficulty, tapping both individual andcollective capacity are best within the context of professional learning communities (PLCs),which are characterized by shared norms and values, reflective dialogue, de-privatization ofpractice, collective focus on student learning, and collaboration. These PLCs set the foundation,so teachers can begin inquiry into their practice in a new way for increased student learning.The integration of Professional Learning Communities and Project-Based Learning serve toaddress the issues discussed above.

[1,2]. In 2018, 57% ofAmerican students in eighth grade indicated that they had taken or were taking one or moreclasses related to engineering or technology, an increase from 52% in 2014 [3]. Engineering maybe taught as a stand-alone topic or integrated with other STEM (science, technology,engineering, and mathematics) fields [1]. As a result, many students entering engineering majorsin college are likely to have some knowledge and/or preconceptions about engineering. It isimportant that from the beginning, students understand the important role of ethics inengineering.Engineering ethics includes both microethics and macroethics. Microethics encompassesindividual responsibilities (such as avoiding bribery and issues such as cheating in an

Ideally, this process ensures that competencies are sequenced correctly, thatstudents have the freedom to create their own specializations, and that the amount of challenge isspread across the curriculum so that students aren’t overwhelmed in one semester andunder-challenged the next semester. These representations are often based on the curriculumdesigner’s best estimates or based on an existing curriculum. These heuristics do not alwayscorrespond to students’ actual pathways through the curriculum.By plotting students’ temporal pathways through the curriculum, it is possible to see where in thecurriculum students are struggling most, to
