Thisarticle then describes how, after an exhaustive survey of the literature, a grant from theUniversity’s Major Pedagogical Innovations Program is being used to devise ways in which thedevelopment of the interpersonal and intrapersonal competencies of engineering students will beintimately integrated throughout the whole undergraduate programs with that of the scientificand

This can be done by giving some examples in class so that students can understand how AI tools can be wisely used in engineering education. 2. Do not have AI take over the thinking process. Make sure that students understand that when they are using an AI tool, they should double check its accuracy. AI tools may be beneficial in many ways and may give accurate information, however, information given still needs to be double checked. 3. Promote awareness of ethical considerations.

Among them, the ethical culture of Confucianism constitutes the core oftraditional culture and is an important pillar of life and spiritual order. For example,Confucianism advocates “exercising benevolence”. The cultural intension of this kind ofbenevolence is manifested in the spirit of practicing, caring about society, and activelyjoining the society (ru shi). The Taoist thought advocates “inaction” or “do-nothingness” (wuwei) to express the heart of salvation. Among them, the dialectic thought that “being andnot-being grow out of one another” (you wu xiang sheng) in Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching hasimportant implications for entrepreneurial activities, such as starting a business from nothing

In engineering curricula,however, a full compulsory course on engineering ethics is not offered to the undergraduate students.For this reason, during the exams for the engineering license (Professional Engineer or PE license) therecent graduates do not perform well in the areas of engineering ethics and aesthetics.

Infact, stakeholder-focused communications employ two of the three aspects of empathy:perspective taking and empathetic concern [9], [10]. When communications are developed tofocus on the content and delivery needs of the person receiving a message, this change inperspective sets the stage for more ethical communication and stakeholder involvement indecision-making [11].

Faculty are often helping student develop asengineers, which is a process that is not reserved for the senior design courses. In many cases,faculty could contribute more strongly to the ABET continuous improvement cycle. In some cases,they may need to just document what they currently do in a course or
