Tóm tắt

We suggest that engineering education would benefit from a closer integration with the arts and humanities: to improve the design process, to attract a more diverse student body, and to sensitize students to the social impact of technology. Conversely, in today's high-tech environment, the liberal arts would be strengthened by introducing students to engineering concepts. We propose a program, Liberal Studies in Engineering, and outline its key components. Creating this interdisciplinary program in higher education requires confronting and transcending academic silos. © 2017 Asia-Pacific Society for Computers in Education. All rights reserved.
