AI integration in engineering education faces challenges and requires critical literacy

Two new papers submitted to arXiv explore the integration of AI into engineering education. The first paper, based on a survey of 100 students, highlights how students use large language models (LLMs) for tasks like writing support and coding, while also expressing concerns about accuracy, bias, and academic integrity. It advocates for a purpose-driven approach to AI integration, emphasizing critical literacy. The second paper reflects on a project-based course at the University of Bremen focused on engineering AI-enabled systems, noting persistent challenges in architectural decisions, deployment, and data management due to uneven expertise, but concluding that the course improved system-level reasoning.
