In the next five years, we will:

• Be instrumental in promoting the integration of ethics and leadership in accordance with the college’s mission and our understanding of what it means to be an engineer.
• Be offering courses that speak to ethics. Our courses will spark discussions on how to humanize innovation and the impact of science and technology on people in local and global communities.
• Be leaders in innovative pedagogical approaches to course materials that focus on a deeper understanding of contextual engineering and ethics through history, sociology, politics, literature, philosophy, art, and music.

To enable this vision, we will:

• Collaborate with CEAS babyÖ±²¥app and other CU colleges.
• Be on the forefront of integrating generative AI into our classes while educating our students about the ethical considerations.
• Encourage undergraduate Herbst Fellows to share their research in publications, teaching workshops, and presentations to CEAS babyÖ±²¥app, and with the community at large.
• Encourage babyÖ±²¥app to attend conferences and workshops on pedagogy in STEM education.
• Create interdisciplinary spaces and/or work groups within CEAS for ethical and socially engaged engineering practices.
• Strengthen our various collaborations with national and international partners.

In the next five years, we will:

• Be partners with the Engineering Connection First-Year Residential Community in fostering the fundamental values of belonging, mattering, ownership, inclusivity, and service throughout the undergraduate experience in and beyond the classroom.
• Be known for encouraging student learning by fostering curiosity, enthusiasm, critical and analytical thinking as a principal component of human thriving.
• Be a leader in integrating ethics into the engineering curriculum.

To enable this vision, we will:

• Increase the number of CEAS students we serve by adding more seminar sections and enlarging lecture classes.
• Enhance all our courses to consider ethical & leadership dilemmas posed by the technological age with particular focus on the history and philosophy of science and technology.
• Increase student enrollment in the Herbst Certificate in Engineering, Ethics & Society, Engineering Leadership (ENLP) and strengthen their respective Fellowships for undergraduate students.
• Create a sustainable fellowship in ethics for students.
• Support the first-year residential experience through teaching, mentoring, and leading Residential Interest Groups outside the classroom.
• Collaborate with babyÖ±²¥app and related groups in other ethics and social sustainability programs.
• Be adapting our courses to the evolving changes in the field of engineering and technology.

In the next five years, we will:

• Be leaders in fostering a learning environment that is mindful of justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
• Be a program that equips engineering students with the necessary skills to effectively navigate cross-cultural encounters and proficiently design solutions with a global perspective.
• Be known for our commitment to international students and international activities.

To enable this vision, we will:

• Develop an inclusion plan which aligns with the CEAS ICC guidelines. This will also include a target strategy for babyÖ±²¥app, students, and staff.
• Seek additional funding so all students have an opportunity to participate in Herbst Global Seminars, regardless of financial challenges.
• Strengthen our courses for international students and encourage babyÖ±²¥app to participate in cultural trainings offered through CU International Student and Scholar Services.
• Expand current partnerships with academic coaches, the BOLD Center, and the Office of Undergraduate Education to boost students’ academic success through mentorship programs, buddy programs, and/or student ambassadors.
• Thoroughly examine ENES curricula with a focus on identifying ways to incorporate considerations of justice, inclusion, diversity, and equity.
