note = "Funding Information: An opportunity to develop such a course recently arose at Lafayette with the retirement of a faculty member who was responsible for a required engineering science course for freshmen which included units on engineering economics, modeling, statistics, and engineering design. It was the consensus of the engineering department heads that these topics, with the exception of engineering economics, could be better dealt with elsewhere in the curriculum, thus opening the door for the introduction of STS material. Reorganization of the freshman-sophomore engineering sequence required that the course be shifted from the freshman to sophomore year, thus providing a full year in which to carefully plan the new course. During the summer of 1989, the author and a senior engineering professor received faculty grants from the College to support development of the course.",
