摘　　要：美国科罗拉多矿业学院从2003年开始实施的"人道主义工程"副修计划,旨在培养能在跨文化、跨地域等复杂环境下开展工程设计和工程服务的骨干人才。该计划重视培养工科生的服务精神、社会环境敏感性、社会责任感等"软"素质,在概念定义、课程设置、服务学习等方面颇具特色,对于工程教育者深入思考如何培养造福社会的工程师具有启发意义。The Humanitarian Engineering Minor Program （HEMP） implemented by Colorado School of Mines in 2003 was designed to cultivate a new cadre of engineers, who can carry out engineering design and service under the complicated across-culture and across-region circumstance. The HEMP attaches much importance to the ＂soft＂ respects of engineering education such as the spirit of service, the sensitivity to social contexts and the responsibility to society. There are some characteristics in this program such as definition of Humanitarian Engineering, curriculum setting and service learning, which can inspire engineering educators to think how to foster engineers who can contribute to the welfare of society.
