Course Content
|
IE 102 is designed to promote the development of professional passion among students and provide early-on/hands-on experience through lectures, field trips, case studies, and projects. Students will have a big-picture view of the engineering profession and its practical requirements. Students will learn about the various aspects of the engineering profession and acquire both technical skills and non-technical skills, in areas such as communication, teamwork, and engineering ethics. The course also supports students entering the complex social system of the university in their efforts to succeed in engineering through personal and professional development, including understanding themselves as integrated physiological, social, and psychological entities who are able to formulate strategies and employ available university resources to support their academic and personal development. This course also provides a compressive knowledge about the philosophy of ethics, different types of ethics (normative theories of ethics, anthropocentrism, relativism, monism, post modernism, etc.) and code of ethics. We analyze exterior acts and interior intentions and truth and fairness in person-to-person and person-to-society relationships. We also discuss moral responsibility of engineers and ethical problems in engineering with some case studies.

Course Methods and Techniques
|
We will be using various tools for active learning to take place. For additional material the Canvas site will be used. This is also a student-driven course. It is your responsibility to participate actively in class discussions. You are not graded on whether you agree or disagree with the instructor or with each other. Evaluation of class participation will be based on your ability to raise and answer important issues, to contribute ideas or insights, to build upon the ideas of others, ask questions to presenters, etc. By actively participating in class discussions, you can sharpen your insights, and those of your classmates. Both the quality and frequency of your participation will count towards your active participation grade. Please note that high-quality or relevant contributions will earn you a higher participation grade than frequent but insignificant contribution. Also, you will not get any class participation points for just being present in class. Class attendance is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for a high score on the class participation.
