This was coupled with feedback from the department’sindustrial advisory board (IAB) which regularly reviews students’ senior design projects in thefall (mid-project) and spring (project conclusion). Also, a survey was conducted of recent alumnias to their experiences and confidence before and after the senior design course. These inputs todesigning the junior-level course suggested that although students had exposure and experiencewith teamwork, oral and written communication, and a variety of so-called soft skills, they feltless confident in their ability to drive and control hardware using programing and in their makermechanical skills. This was true regardless of their concentration

developing technical knowledge and interpersonalskills [2]. For example, it is recognized that the humanities have played little or no role inengineering courses [3], and most institutions deliver these curricula through differentdepartments/faculties/schools. Most STEM curriculums emphasize technical knowledge withoutconcern for the social implications or the historical and social contextualization of science andtechnology in our modern world and our shared global past. This has led to the development ofpedagogical approaches designed to promote the training of engineering students as specialists intheir narrow disciplines while relegating the study of humanities to the “soft skills” involved ininterpersonal relationships [2].The humanities ground
