researchers can disrupt the chilly, heteronormativeculture of STEM by modeling inclusive classroom and lab practices. Additionally, we offerinsights on how students negotiate their identity visibility in a chilly, heteronormative, and silentculture. Introduction Despite efforts to increase diversity and inclusion on college and university campuses,Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) programs continue to be largelycisgender, male, heterosexual, and white [1]–[3]This continued lack of diversity is largely due tothe heteronormative, racist, and sexist culture that serves to make STEM spaces inhospitable formarginalized students, and results in high levels of attrition for these groups [1], [4]. In order toaddress this, we

They found no significant difference between the personality types of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) test between engineering students and faculty.In addition, most studies have been published several years or decades ago, but nowadays, mostof the undergraduate students are from Generation Z, the first generation to be digital natives[23], [24]. They use technology to facilitate their lives, find relevant information, and solve theirproblems. They grew up with sophisticated visual imagery. They are known to be fast decisionmakers and rely on a trial and error approach [25]. To this date, there is a dearth of studiesfocused on

the past couple ofdecades. Lang et al. (1999) write, “In an era of unprecedented technological advancement,engineering practice continues to evolve but engineering education has not changed appreciablysince the 1950s” [6]. While there are some bright spots, real changes have been far too small andslow. This is ironic because technology, typically developed by engineers, changes very rapidly.It is also ironic because many engineering professors work on cutting-edge research, whileteaching their courses essentially the same way for many years. Engineering education has notkept pace with a changing world. While there are many possible reasons for the lack of progress,one solution is to launch a brand-new program with intentional design to

, one of them being “… a growing need for interdisciplinary andsystem-based approaches …”. As technology advances, there is an increasing demand for aninterdisciplinary approach to translate operational needs and requirements into a system solution thatsatisfies customer expectations and meets public acceptability [4].Such an approach requires engineers to be able to identify various stakeholders, understand their roles, andeffectively communicate with them to facilitate the identification and implementation of possible solutions.In the system engineering design process, identifying the right functional and non -functional systems

Engineering launched anexploratory survey to determine the amount declared engineering majors spent on textbooksacross their classes. At Dartmouth College, major declarations occur at the conclusion ofsophomore year, therefore junior and senior engineering majors were the target audience for thesurvey. Because Dartmouth is a liberal arts college, engineering students must take courses in art,literature, thought, international study, social analysis, quantitative or deductive sciences, naturaland physical sciences, and technology and applied sciences [4]. While engineering classes fulfillthe science and technology portions, engineering majors take many classes outside of thedepartment. It is important to note this fact because the costs of textbooks

Women of Color numbers grew expeditiously in 2017 to41 percent of the female population and 21 percent of the total U.S. populace [2]. Though thenumbers uptick toward growth, stagnation looms in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering &Mathematics) academically and professionally and in fields similar to engineering. Thedemographic reporting on engineering faculty with women of Color scholarly reports do notreflect the full scope of their characteristics, often negating gender, race, and specific engineeringdiscipline [1]. The lack of an extensive demographic may lie
