Welcome to LEES

This division provides a vital forum for those concerned with integrating the humanities and social sciences into engineering education via methods, courses, and curricular designs that emphasize the inherent sociotechnicality of engineering learning and work. LEES is concerned with the intersections of engineering and liberal education, including the role of the humanities, arts, social sciences, and communication in engineering education and work in science, technology, & society. We critically analyze the social and ethical dimensions of expertise and technoscience, build and maintain higher education programs, care for members of our communities, teach research and communication skills, study engineering communities, and situate engineering within larger social, historical, political, and cultural contexts. The division welcomes both engineers and non-engineers as members.
