This is supplemented by his role in developing assessment techniques for two NSF-funded projects focused on the incorporation of virtual and mixed reality technology into civil engi- neering education. In addition, his past civil engineering research investigated the behavior of wood shear wall structures under seismic loading conditions.

Solutions to them willrequire interaction and collaboration between engineers and those from the broader liberal arts.Similarly, there is a need for those in other fields to have basic understanding of engineering.This need for a basic understanding is an outgrowth of the degree to which technology permeatesand shapes modern society. Without an understanding of how and why technology is developedand implemented, it becomes an almost magical black box. A lack of understanding of howsuch technology functions and is developed is antithetical to the enlightenment idea of educatingindividuals so they understand the world around them.

This ambiguity extends to (or perhaps stems from) educators’different approaches to teaching “science” and “engineering.” A poor understanding andappreciation of this difference profoundly affects the demographics of higher education aswell as those of the professional workforce.At the K-12 levels, educators’ attempts to introduce engineering into the curriculumtypically focus on either science education or technology training. The ideas in this paperarise from numerous discussions and from the collective work of the NSF Galileo Fellowsand their Directors at the School of Engineering, University of Connecticut.
