This paper aims to propose a way to diversify engineering education and practice via the merge between engineering and social science, humanities and arts. The paper is based on documentary analysis of newspapers, in-depth interviews, annual review reports, and participant observation. Based on about three years of experience to participate in the process of building an innovative engineering program, the paper follows the trajectory of a contested epistemic and pragmatic space, where the topography of engineering practice and education has to be reconfigured and remapped. It explores a formative hybrid space, in which experts with a wide range of disciplinary matrix in a Kuhnian sense mix together under the same departmental roof of the university to foster creative innovators in information technology (IT)-related fields. In recent decades, the incorporation of non-technical elements such as social science, humanities, and arts and design into core engineering curricula has never been more emphasized in the Korean national context. Inspired by the success of Silicon Valley and IT giants such as Google and Facebook, the government viewed that the unique element of their success should be found in the infusion between the technical and the social/the humanistic. As a way to cultivate future creative innovators with global competence, in 2011 the South Korean government funded two major universities to design an engineering program at the undergraduate and graduate levels. This offered a timely opportunity for the electrical engineering faculty to reformulate engineering community and to redress as innovative community. Drawing on such concepts as trading zones, boundary objects, and boundary organizations, the paper presents a case study of how this particular sort of innovation community is formed through collaborative efforts between engineers, the industry, the government, and others. First, it argues that a hybrid form of engineering education can help design engineering to nurture students as future global leaders and innovators. Second, it concludes that engineers and social scientists/humanists can manage to collaborate together despite their cultural and intellectual incommensurability if incentivizing environments are securely provided. Third, it proposes that both social scientists and engineers should become cultural innovators to build creatively successful intellectual and cultural hybrids. Forth, the paper notes that entrepreneurial citizenship is a useful tool to exercise hybrid imagination in a global age.
