. Technologicaldevelopment is one of the primary detonators of this globalization, and engineering has been themain drive behind technological development. This situation has caused engineering professionalsfrom all over the world to seek to identify themselves, as collaborative projects between engineers ofdifferent nationalities become more and more common.For several years, American and Iberian-American countries have been carrying out studiesexploring this topic.

. Inthe original physics-based curricula, labs involving mechanical application were practically non-existent. To provide for new mechanical lab activities, basic laboratory stations were procured,an engineering measurements lab and course were created, and innovative, low-cost practicalexperiences were developed. These activities quickly became too numerous for a single course,and will need to be distributed into the engineering science courses. The electrical engineeringcomponent has been influenced by technology advances and changes in focus. Improvements tolaboratory equipment and software have simultaneously simplified many lab measurementswhile allowing for more complex projects. The focus has shifted from fundamental physicsmeasurements

It would be the responsibility of the engineering students to applythese themes to their individual projects, using the professional mentors as a source, and theInternet for background material3. As part of the evaluation process, students entering the “Ethicsof the Professions” course will take an ethics acuity test, followed by a similar exit test.

With technology becoming anincreasingly important part of our lives and a part of the education of our children, the absence ofthe content and processes of one subject has become increasingly evident over all others:engineering.

At the end of the day, ChatGPT is a tool that has the potential to both do good and causeharm. It is up to instructors to educate and support students in leveraging it for the good it canbring, and avoid causing harms that it can perpetuate.
