some of itenforces norms and inequities that work against these ideals. So how do we pivot? How do weelevate these values within engineering education and the workplace, and what are new modes ofengagement, research, development and design that will help us get there?Building a Peace Engineering CurriculumThe Peace Engineering program at Drexel was developed in partnership with the U.S. Institute ofPeace (USIP) and its technology-based spinoff PeaceTech Lab (PTL) with a vision to educateprofessionals capable of identifying challenges and implementing solutions at the intersection ofpeacebuilding and engineering. Our goal is not only to integrate STEM students and researchersinto peacebuilding, but also to embed peacebuilding practices

At CCSU, student participation ina voluntary online screening test paired with an optional, ten-hour, non-credit seminar wasdisappointing, with only a small fraction of the students deemed eligible for the seminarselecting to participate. In the Fall of 2020 the students in an Introduction to Engineering course(ENGR 150), were screened for weakness in spatial visualization using the Purdue SpatialVisualization Test: Rotations (PSVT:R). Those students in need of remediation were providedinstruction during break-out sessions during regular class time over the course of ten classmeetings. The breakout sessions lasted about ten minutes each, resulting in two
