Abstract:
Systems developed by engineers affect the society in several ways, and taking into consideration such effects in systems projects is a complex activity. In Brazil, engineering schools are not prepared to teach their students, neither to take this complexity into consideration nor to model the knowledge about the relationship between society and technology. We suggest the first steps to enable engineers to build system models that represent the necessary knowledge to deal with the effects of the systems created by engineering upon people and society in general.
