Other important objectives for thecourse are to develop teaming skills, to provide exposure to ethical issues, and to initiate thedevelopment of skills that will be used in the subsequent three engineering design courses. Thiscourse is the initial step in the Design4Practice1 curriculum, first described in 19952, and whichwon the 1999 Boeing Outstanding Educator Award.3II.

Third, participation from engineering department faculty in the generaleducation components enables them to make these cross-curricular connections. Lastly, facultymentoring and training help achieve this shared goal. Future directions could include makingthese intentional connections common throughout other classes in the engineering curriculum,including both studio design classes and engineering analysis classes.IntroductionTeaching engineering ethics is important for a number of reasons, including the tremendousimpact of technology on society, the reputation of the engineering profession, and the characterdevelopment of students [1] - [6].

constant vigilance for the potential violation of engineering ethics must beidentified to the student as their responsibility. They must assume the roll of a waryattendant as well as the competent engineer once they join the engineering profession. Itis suggested that weaving ethics instruction within the ‘normal’ engineering course workcan be an effective means of accomplishing this task. It also has an added benefit: theInstructor is constantly reminded of his/her ethical responsibilities while trying to instillsome ethical conscience in the students.Biography:Francis A.

This process is mapped out in Task 2 to help facilitate a step-by-step solution. ○ It is envisioned that Task 2 could be a homework problem or assignment to be solved before the lab session as the solution could take beginner students time to complete. ○ Alternatively, a spreadsheet was developed to perform the equilibrium calculations and can be shared with the students to complete the theoretical calculations.● Lastly, if the instructor is looking to include more engineering technology and software in the class, the instructor could require the students to create their spreadsheets capable of completing the calculations.

Domestically, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that approximately 25,000new civil engineers will be needed each year of this decade. Given recent infrastructurelegislation, many more civil engineers will likely be required to design, build, and maintain theseproposed projects. Well-developed pre-college engineering curricula have been proven toincrease student enrollment in engineering majors. However, these benefits depend on effectiveclassroom technologies, tools, and techniques. This multi-year study looks at a one
