About
Kevin Bolding is a dedicated engineering educator whose work centers on integrating engineering principles into broad, liberal arts educational frameworks. His most cited contribution, "Integrating engineering into a freshman liberal arts curriculum" (2003), with 4 citations, documents his pioneering efforts at Seattle Pacific University to embed engineering into a new common core curriculum. This work addresses a critical challenge in higher education: ensuring that engineering is not marginalized as universities adopt more traditional liberal arts and science requirements for freshmen. Bolding’s approach demonstrates how engineering can be woven into a holistic educational experience, fostering interdisciplinary thinking and problem-solving skills from the very start of a student’s academic journey. His contributions are particularly notable for their focus on curriculum design and pedagogical innovation, offering a model for other institutions seeking to balance technical education with a broad-based liberal arts foundation. Through this work, Bolding has helped shape how engineering is perceived and taught in contexts that prioritize a well-rounded, integrated education.
