Description

This "course" is not a course but a collection of learning units meant to infuse ways of thinking and doing in engineering into courses in the liberal arts - courses in the humanities, arts and social sciences. These "modules" emerge from a project in which I, together with colleagues across the US, have engaged - one intended to explore opportunities to establish an undergraduate, pre-professional, degree program for students with broad, multidisciplinary interests who find attractive a program that keeps open the possibility that they might pursue a career in engineering. For these individuals, the program will offer a smoother pathway into the profession - think of it as a "pre-engineering" program readying students for pursuing an accredited engineering degree at the master's level. For others, it will serve as a new liberal arts program centered on STEM.
