Dr. Godwin graduated from Clem- son University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent di- versity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning, to understand engineering students’ identity development.

weaponry—even as a point of discussion—isapparently outside the scope of the course, despite evident student curiosity and the seeminglylogical connection of nuclear weaponry to the course theme (including the pervasiveness ofengineering careers directly or indirectly connected to the military sector [22]). The topic ofnuclear weaponry repeatedly goes unaddressed, and students repeatedly seek to bring it up. Thisdimension of HC includes those topics notably absent from the formal curriculum, notableespecially when their inclusion would seem to be reasonable or even likely.

work (average 8.4, Table 2), but perhaps this wasdue to other courses that they had taken rather than the senior-level engineering professionalismand ethics course. I2 required multiple ethics courses outside engineering that were taken earlierin their undergraduate careers, and perhaps those courses were viewed as being more helpful. Inaddition, the I2 course was new (in first to third iterations) and the alumni who responded to thesurvey had only worked for about 1 year after graduating. The short time in-practice was notatypical compared to alumni respondents from institutions I3, I6, and I7. The exemplarinstructors from I1, I3, I6, I7 did appear to have more established courses.

Prior studies have focused on the instrument’s latent constructs, and thisanalysis examines how some of the constructs influence each other. Specific latent constructs ofgoal orientation, agency (students’ beliefs that their career in science or engineering can lead topositive effects on the world), future time perspective (FTP), and personality type were selectedfor secondary data analysis based on existing theory about relationships between motivation,goal setting

] without considering theimpact that other identities may have on the engineering experience, although some findings doindicate that gender and race are factors in attrition and persistence [23]–[31]. Outside of engineering, researchers have investigated the impacts of gender identity [32]–[36], racial identity [37]–[40], and even religious identity [41] on students' experiences inuniversity and future career goals. These studies recognize the multiple identities that studentsmust navigate the world with. Their experiences are complicated even further when they havemultiple marginalized identities (e.g., female, people of color, and LGBTQ in a predominatelyWhite, hetero, male setting) [5], [42]–[45].

The intellectual strand of identity describes growing knowledge of engineering,which often includes hands-on skills. The institutional strand of identity describes recognition asan engineer by external entities, like academic departments or professional societies. Thenetwork strand of identity describes the development of a network of collaborators and mentors.Identity trajectory suggests that long-term group projects (section 2.1) are particularly salient toidentity development because they weave together all three strands of identity: long-termprojects are an opportunity for
