Abstract
This special session presents applications of the philosophy of engineering to the understandings of engineering design. The philosophical basis of engineering provides particular insight into framing and interpreting design experiences. This interactive sessions/workshop aims to discuss and analyze engineering design and its place in engineering education. This includes examining perspectives from practitioners and educators on engineering design, and how these can better shape priorities and learning experiences in undergraduate engineering education.
