The preferred Zone Temperature Equation(ZTE) is a time-derivative equation for the all-important temperature of the air in such a buildingzone; consequently, the ZTE is an important tool used in state-of-the-art building energy systemsimulation models. In contrast, early building energy simulation programs did not incorporate orutilize a rigorous

prioritization scheme that is based on resolving conflict between contrasting values. Characterization occurs when the engineer acts consistently in accordance with internalized values. The highest level of the value system then forms consistent behavior at this level under all circumstances.Including the affective domain captures the essence of responsible charge. Simply finding asound technical engineering solution does not fulfill an engineer’s obligation to protect andadvance public health, safety, and welfare. An engineer in responsible charge has an ethical andprofessional obligation to understand and utilize technological advances, and considerenvironmental factors such as sustainability, resilience, the effects of climate

codesremained as such until 1974, when the Engineers’ Council for Professional Development shiftedfocus from the client/employer to public health, safety, and welfare [5]. It was during this timethat engineering ethics was emphasized in the engineering curriculum of many colleges anduniversities. Similar to what happened at the turn of the 20th century, there were also a numberof high-profile disasters which added emphasis in this area of engineering [5]. In 1985, theAmerican Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) required engineering programs to addengineering ethics as part of their curriculum. In addition to ABET, several professionalpublications became part of the engineering professional landscape [5].Once ABET established a criterion for
culture that rewards the use of evidence-based pedagogical best practices to promote continuous professional formation throughout theundergraduate program. The change to the environmental engineering program takes place inthe context of a larger department. Lessons learned through this process can be used in future tointegrate curricula within the other two undergraduate degree programs (civil engineering andconstruction engineering technology) offered by the department.At the core of our approach is a transformation of the topic-focused course structure to a modelof integrated and project-based learning courses throughout the curriculum that could be team-taught.

www.slayte.com The Community College Pathway: A Study of Women in STEMPurpose of the StudyMany women begin their postsecondary education at a community college (CC), so encouragingand supporting them on the transfer pathway is critical for addressing the lack of gender diversityin STEM – particularly in engineering and technology. The National Academy of Engineering(NAE) has highlighted the importance of community colleges in broadening participation inengineering because of the diversity they represent [1] [2]. In fall 2019, approximately 41% ofHispanic undergraduates, 38% of American Indian/Alaskan Native undergraduates, and 31% ofBlack undergraduates were enrolled in two-year colleges in the U.S. [3] Approximately 34% ofwomen undergraduate
family status, and highschool graduation status. Overall, the seven characteristics specifically associated withnontraditional students are: (1) Delayed enrollment by a year or more after high school, (2)attended part-time, (3) having dependents, (4) being a single parent, (5) working full time whileenrolled, (6) being financially independent from parents, and (7) did not receive a standard highschool diploma. Table 1 shows these seven characteristics for both public 4-year institutions andengineering and engineering technology undergraduates across all institutional types. In relationto the seven characteristics of NTS status, there are varying degrees to which a student isnontraditional. They are considered minimally nontraditional if they
