engineering education asexperiencing similar tensions - playing rigor games to survive within engineering [12],struggling and failing to create a liberatory space, reproducing dynamics of oppression.With all this in the balance, the only option is to dare yet hope, and dream, and risk, andact, and try again. I am confident in this path because of powerful educationalexperiences in my own life that have reoriented me - for example, an experience during a“work week” at Highlander that challenged me to viscerally shift my relationship withwork. While it is difficult for me to articulate, the experience of breaks from work incommunity was so powerful that it began to break down the engineering-capitalist-protestant work ethic so deeply ingrained in me

level, meaning teachers and students were encouragedto examine the issues that are symptomatic of inequities in social power rather than scrutinize theunderlying values and beliefs that sustain their presence. We see opportunities to identify howconceptions of race, gender, and ability have shaped scientific thought and engineering practicethroughout history. Additionally, there remains a need to critically evaluate claims about thescience of human difference and analyze the complex relationships among engineering,technology, and ethical responsibility in current social contexts in which engineering ispracticed. Lastly, we would like to see more attention and detail given to presenting thecorrectives or solutions students and faculty devise to

addition, these experts identified the need for honestengineers with unwavering integrity. More recently in 2019, the American Society of Civil Engineers(ASCE) brought together over 200 engineering educators and professionals to discuss the capabilitiesneeded by today’s civil engineers to solve society’s complex problems. One of the four major objectivesidentified as pathways to preparing engineers to meet society’s needs was to elevate professional skills toa truly equal footing with technical skills [5]. Specific skills included communication, teamwork andleadership, lifelong learning, professional attitudes, and ethical responsibilities. Thus, while most mayagree that technical prowess is the most essential characteristic of an engineer, all

The focus of this paper is on some of those professional skills.Below are some examples of things that many employers look for in new engineering graduates:  Leadership examples in school, at home, at work, in outside organizations, etc.  Previous relevant work experience, preferably internships, co-ops, and research projects with professors.  Can cogently discuss major projects, especially their capstone.  Passion / interest in the company and

A student, who is enrolled on the census date, and does not officiallywithdraw from a course but fails to complete it, receives a WU. The NC stands for No Credit,and the students who failed, their grades automatically changed to NC. The students who got Dhad the option to petition for changing their grade to NC.
