Workers hired after thenew scheme was implemented were on average 28% more productive than the ones hired in theold regime.Experimentation is an effort that requires collaboration among Science, Product, andEngineering teams which means it is typically multi-disciplinary in nature. Experiments typicallyhave three phases: the pre-experiment planning, the implementation and monitoring, and thepost-experiment analysis. During the pre-experiment planning, Science, Product, andEngineering work together to translate the business problem at hand into testable hypothesis,make ethical and legal considerations and submit the research proposal for review if applicable,define the details of the intervention, design the randomization, define

Being international graduate students, they learned professional social etiquettesfollowed in United States and how to build professional relationships with professionals from othercultures. By working in culturally diverse teams for semester-long projects, the graduate studentslearned some critical professional skills such as effective communication, project management,leadership, and critical thinking. For example, one of the graduate students learned to apply criticalthinking to provide

the Chinese nation in the cultural andspiritual path. 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

They [23] explain how that disrupts the“technical/social dualism in engineering” which eventually leads to the complications of thestudents’ understanding of “what it means to be an engineer, what engineers do, and whatconstitutes engineering knowledge and expertise”. Niles et al [23, p.6] further explain howthis “created difficulties for students as they contended with conflicting conceptions ofengineering knowledge and practice”.Moreover, the findings of Niles et al [23], along with others that describe how

creates moreawareness in human oriented engineering design and manufacturing but also adds a novel dimension inthe personal and professional life of any engineering practitioner. In other professional schools, such asin Law and Medical schools, more emphasis is given on the socio-cultural aspects of the profession.Similarly, medical ethics and legal ethics are compulsory courses in their curricula. 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.

class, the course objectives havethe effect of doing just that.Empathy involves taking the perspective of others or placing oneself in the role of someone else.Empathy developed through this “role-taking” can lead to more efficient communication [8]. 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]. The combination of positive attitudes toward communication andempathy is encouraged in the education of future physicians, to

Faculty are often helping student develop asengineers, which is a process that is not reserved for the senior design courses.
