resources that can fuel women’s rise in status” ● “Promise..that women’s full participation in white-dominated society and politics will not only improve their own social position...their leadership will redeem society itself.”We can’t help but see the parallels in the academy, where white women (whether white feminists or not)benefit the most from women in engineering efforts, perhaps because “white” is a silent or implieddescriptor in front of women. Women of color choose from women in engineering or minority inengineering efforts, neither of which are designed specifically for them in mind. As such, this fails tounite women despite efforts to build diversity and inclusion into the field of engineering (broadly) andengineering

Incorporating BiomimicryAbstractTo better implement the curiosity aspect of entrepreneurial-minded learning (EML), biomimicrywas adopted in a tissue engineering course project to nourish curiosity. Biomimicry belongs tobioinspired design and has been reported to offer educators a way to engage students withsystems thinking and creative problem-solving, which can potentially inspire student curiosity.Students were required to use natural materials (from plants, insects, etc.) and naturalstructures/mechanisms in tissue-engineered product design to adopt the biomimicry principle. Atthe end of the project, an anonymous survey was conducted to assess the relationship betweenstudent curiosity and project experience. The curiosity-related assessment was based

This is a weighty concept for the profession and the practicingengineer. The relationship of engineering and society dictates that engineers operate in goodfaith to ensure the welfare of society is paramount. As such, engineering ethics are a part of thiscomplex relationship and the education of engineering students should be effective in makingthem more ethically minded. This paper will set up virtue ethics as a needed approach inengineering ethics education and exams four virtues as the hallmarks of an engineer: phronesis,justice, fortitude and honesty.engineering as a valued

Academic advisers foundthat during their limited conversation time with students, they were addressing issues that weremore common in nature. Advisers were looking for a place to refer students to discuss thesecommon advising topics, such as learning university systems and selecting general educationclasses so a student’s time with the adviser could be focused on more substantive discussions.Keeping the above goals in mind, the following mission statement was created to guide theprogram: The Peer Advising Program will advance the College of Engineering mission by offering technical and advising

calls withinengineering for civic engagement, diversity, equity, inclusion, and social and environmentaljustice.IntroductionAn engineering instructor recently told us, “For those of us who were trained as engineers in the1980's and have taught the past 20 years, there's a bit of a Pavlovian response thatcommunication means writing.” Indeed, “communication = writing” is a widely accepted proofamong engineering instructors and is confidently echoed by engineering students when asked,“What is communication?” Those with broader perspectives include “and presenting” to theequation, but even some of the most experienced and open-minded engineers and engineeringprofessors we have met stop there.

an electrical fluid (current).” This seems like the statement in Sabbagh that the realexistence of electrical properties is not essential for engineering knowledge. Nilsson 2015 [12, p.11] includes almost the same sentence: “In circuit theory, the separation of charge creates anelectrical force (voltage) and the motion of charge creates an electrical fluid (current).” Perhapsthis change was for brevity or clarity, but it is epistemically significant. When discussing idealresistors Nilsson 1983 begins by saying “One must keep in mind several important properties ofthe ideal resistor” and follows by describing three assumptions. Nilsson 2015 omits much of thisdiscussion, presenting only one assumption and ends by saying “In this book we assume
