wewant to increase the diversity of the cybersecurity workforce because one good indicator ofcareer interests for adolescents is their choice of leisure and extra-curricular activity3.Tangentially, we also recognize that while computer-skills are critically important to acybersecurity professional, professionals in cybersecurity also are required to have a widebreadth of skills. This broader set of skills include critical thinking, teamwork, communication aswell as being well versed in privacy, ethics, and legal aspects of cybersecurity.To expand demographic participation in cybersecurity and the diversity of the cybersecurityworkforce, we believe that cybersecurity competitions at the formative ages should focus on abroader set of cybersecurity

Ethics education has been correlated with increased measures of socialresponsibility, and greater student ranking of the importance of ethics relative to fundamentaltechnical skills [7]. The case studies allow reflection on and discussion of ethics, economics,stakeholders, and impact of engineering projects; while providing a richer context for learningengineering math and science fundamentals. The term “case study” as used in this paper refersto an exercise that contains elements of “inquiry-based learning”, “guided discovery learning”,“problem-based learning”, and “case-based learning” [5].

The goal was tointroduce different unit operations through a fun process example that was simple enoughfor the students to follow. The process needed to involve simple chemistry and provideopportunities for introducing different unit operations, teamwork, ethics andsustainability.

Therefore, it is important for institutions to define what constitutes cheating tostudents. In general, it is believed that students who cheat in college are more likely to shoplift,cheat in income taxes, abuse harmful substances, and engage in un-ethical behavior in theworkspace. Students that cheat in high school also do it in college [1].Among the different disciplines, Business and Engineering students are among the most likely

One class period and two homeworkassignments were dedicated to University values. The first homework assignment focused on thevalue of citizenship, with the goal of engaging students in the School’s engineering community.This assignment required students to attend a chapter meeting of an engineering studentorganization, then complete an online discussion board post about their experience. As Meyerset al. note, freshman are more apt to listen to the advice of other upperclassmen than facultymembers16 and such engagement could lead to a forum for soliciting this advice. The
