IntroductionIn many orientations to social science research, study participants are positioned as objects ofinquiry, but are not treated as partners in the inquiry process or within knowledge developmentprocesses. This paper offers one account of an engineering education research team disruptingthis dichotomy between “researcher” and “researched.”This work takes place in the context of an NSF-funded ethnographic investigation of Universityof Maryland (UMD) College Park Scholars Science, Technology, and Society Living LearningCommunity (STS-LLC) [1].

Wesuggest these resultant methods be used to create microinsertions of ethics and social impacts asone strategy for minimizing the technical/social dualism present in most curriculum [6], [7]which we hope will prove a rigorous strategy for the eventual full integration of sociotechnicalapproaches to problem solving in engineering education.IntroductionThere is a lack of consistency concerning integrating social impacts fully into technical lessons,modules, courses

The data consisted of perceived similarities between eachpossible pair of graduate attributes collected from engineering student, faculty and industrystakeholders. Multidimensional scaling analysis showed that the 12 graduate attributes can beconceptualized as four clusters, which we have suggested be titled, Problem Solving Skills,Interpersonal Skills, Ethical Reasoning, and Creativity and Innovation. These findings, supported bythe relevant literature, highlight the need to further explore how engineering competencies cluster inpractice to add empirical support for program changes aimed toward educating the whole engineer.1.
