However, the downside to this is that students cancompartmentalize this information and fail to connect it with the rest of the curriculum, as that’show the course was designed. On the other hand, an across-the-curriculum model in which ethicaland global concepts are integrated into many disciplinary courses provides a model in whichstudents can connect their ethical knowledge to their disciplinary work. And while an across-the-curriculum program for these integrative concepts might lead to a lack of depth of continuity, manyfaculty do not have the competencies to teach these concepts even if they wanted or were requiredto [3].

Boundaries of Engineering Education.AbstractGenerative artificial intelligence (GAI) has long been used across various fields; however, itsusage in engineering education has been limited. Some areas where GAI tools have beenimplemented in education include intelligent tutoring, assessment, predicting, curriculum design,and personalized student learning. The recent proliferation of CHATGPT and other GAI toolspresents limitless possibilities for transforming engineering pedagogy and assessment. At thesame time, there are challenges associated with implementation. Consequently, there is a need toconduct an empirical study to evaluate these tools' strengths, limitations, and challenges tohighlight potential opportunities for their application in

As aresult, there have been several attempts at integrating math into other courses in an effort toencourage that transfer [2, 13-16]. Instead of a separate “math” course, calculus is taught throughoutmultiple courses, as topics are needed, allowing for a clear relationship between the how and thewhy. This model provides increased motivation for, and transfer of, calculus to other relatedareas, in part because terminology differences are quickly resolved. The increased learning andmotivation associated with such models often improves student retention[16]. In their work

Furthermore, the majority of programs either did not include any sustainabilityconcepts in their programs (27%) or exhibited a weak level of integration of sustainabilityconcepts in their programs (28%). This lack of significant incorporation of sustainability inenvironmental engineering programs is surprising, considering that ABET has identifiedsustainability as an important student outcome.
