Stephanie Jorgensen, has received the Leighton E. Sissom Innovation and Creativity Award from the College of Engineering. She was selected for her innovative redesign of a Chemical Engineering Process, Products, Ethics course, which students have described as “changing the way we think.”
“Engineering ethics became less of something we should do, and more of an actual ideology to follow through our lives and careers,” said Phoebe Dawson a recently graduated student who completed the new course. With the new format, topics are viewed and discussed through five different lenses: global, economic, societal, environmental, and societal impact.”
