We have developed an executable case-study approach to expose engineering students to social and community issues. Undergraduate engineering students can team up with social science students to identify, analyze, and potentially solve such issues. We hypothesize that this will not only increase social awareness among mainstream engineering students, but also pave the way to recruit and retain women and underrepresented minority students in engineering.
