İngilizce öz

The goal of the paper is to provide guidelines for building a comprehensive
model that fosters humanitarian engineering education. The paper brings the
voice of field practitioners and students, in addition to academic research, to
determine the most critical attitudes, skills, and capacity building practice for
empowering humanitarian engineers. A large pool of data related to the
research topic was collected through an online questionnaire answered by 187
members of Engineers Without Borders. Inductive analysis methodology was
used to analyze the survey results. Moreover, scholarly literature review was
done to review the history of engineering and learn about the shortcomings in
conventional engineering education and how it could be reformed to meet
humanitarian engineering challenges
