If engineers have any duty to society as awhole, and the authors would argue that we do, then protecting them by our decisions should be one ofour prime duties. A problem could develop when a project might hurt a few people, but help manymore. An example might be a major dam project in the southwestern United States. Is our prime dutyto the few who might be displaced, or the many who might be helped by readily available water andcheaper electricity?A utilitarian approach might approve of this policy as being

Follow up mini projects that enable students to engagein hands-on design and/or testing would (a) enable students to make additional connectionsbetween the micromoment activities, concept mapping exercises, and, ultimately, the EMframework, and (b) further extend this work from a lecture-only class to a laboratory course ora capstone design course, depending on the activities undertaken following each micromomentand intermediate concept map

Before this I was super nervous for the capstone as I felt I wouldn't be able to contributebut now I feel as I can lead! This internship has not only given me experience but confidence as Ihave a better understanding of how things work. Being able to see things firsthand has beenextremely helpful and I believe it will be a huge help with all my classes.”“Absolutely, the internship significantly better prepared me for continued learning at Texas State.Through practical exposure and hands on experience during the internship, I gained a deeperunderstanding of

While including some of the same topics, such as energy andsustainability, the focus of this text is on engineering practice. This is beneficial for atechnological literacy course. The text is useful both for new engineers confronting issues in thepolitical and business arenas and for non-engineers needing to understand engineering.The author wanted material in the readings that would serve as case studies in engineering andtechnology, and used other books to supplement standard textbooks.
