incoming engineering students to take the introductorycourse, ENGR 100: Exploring engineering. The course is typically taught by a team ofeight faculty and has an enrollment of approximately 200. In the Fall semester of 2002,ENGR 100 was changed from a large-lecture-based course to a modular course based ona seminar format (Vigeant et al, ASEE conference proceedings, 2003). Students couldselect two of eight seminars focused on areas of interest to them, ranging from buildingand analyzing trebuchets to computer programming. These seminars were taken betweentwo large lecture modules, the first introducing engineering as a profession and the finalone introducing professional responsibility and ethics.

In class, students explore basic sciencesand emerging diagnostic technologies for genetic disease, including lab-on-a-chip, gene chip,and MRI imaging. Students receive hands on experience through lab modules dealing withgenetic sequencing and molecular imaging of proteins. In addition, students receive formalinstruction in technical communications, and problem solving strategies, including brain-storming and research organization. Performance on an individual and team basis is evaluatedthrough a series of homework sets, exams, lab reports, journals, team minutes, and oral projectreports, in addition to a final formal report prepared for the client.

Beginning in the 1800s,demand for safer designs for machine guards, controls for elevators, and boilers became thenorm, followed by a procession of other devices and processes created by engineers to makework environments safer. The important role of engineers was highlighted as early as 1947, bythe Canons of Ethics for Engineers, which stated that: He will regard it his duty to guard against dangerous elements in apparatus, structures, or plants, or

Achieving significant and continuous innovation through design requireslooking beyond current systems design practices. Engineering educators must adapt new ways ofthinking, teaching, and learning engineering design from other disciplines. This paper discussesthe modes of engineering thinking and how they differ from those of contemporary innovatorsand examines how a human-centered approach to design can replace approaches that considerhuman values and ethics as constraints to the design.

Society of Professional Engineer ethics creed5 isintroduced: “…I dedicate my professional knowledge and skill to the advancement andbetterment of human welfare.” Like many other professional society ethics statements, engineersidentify service to humankind as their greater purpose. If engineering students are trained to be“problem solvers,” why not present the world’s problems as challenges for our engineers totackle?One of the most effective ways used to raise the awareness of global issues for students is toassign reading articles from mainstream publications, such as Time magazine and TechnologyReview.

Curiously enough, some of these traits are also necessaryfor a reputation built on integrity and a strong sense of professional ethics, which one of our priorstudy populations identified as part of the ethical obligations of engineers [3].How Teams Relate to Concepts of TrustAnother way to describe trust takes the view of “trust tokens” in team dynamics, as described byMorita and Burns [4]. These “tokens” are perceived expertise, recommendations, social capital,willingness to help and validation of information [4]. Perceived expertise refers to the ways inwhich team members regard the abilities of each other and expect everyone to use their expertise(as a combination of ability and experience) to

on Undergraduate Research, undergraduate research is defined as “aninquiry or investigation conducted by an undergraduate student that makes an originalintellectual or creative contribution to the discipline [1].” As stated in literature, undergraduateswho conduct research show improvements in thinking independently, thinking critically, puttingideas together, solving problems, analyzing data, analyzing literature, interpreting researchfindings, conducting ethical research, writing and communicating [2-9]. Literature also assertsthat it is rare for students to have enough opportunity to gain higher-order thinking skills fromtheir undergraduate research experiences [10].Students involved in undergraduate research also report outcomes that may
