Awareness of one’s own mental models and theissues that face the end systems user, particular when it may be a diverse population, will allowfor more universal design that does not continue to privilege the same populations andexacerbate the inequities of others [23]. Handley and Marnewick [24] augment an existingcompetency model that incorporates elements of global competencies to now include DEIprinciples. They apply it to a systems engineering graduate program and suggest modifyingmaterial content, student interactions (classroom activities) and the teaching environment(methods, practice and atmosphere) simultaneously.

Research Center. Her research focuses on how identity, among other affective factors, influences diverse students to choose engineering and persist in engineering. She also studies how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering foster or hinder be- longing and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chem- ical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent diversity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning to understand engineering studentsidentity development. ©American Society for

University Alexandra Jackson is a second year PhD student at Rowan University seeking a specialization in Engi- neering Education. She began her research in Rowan’s Experiential Engineering Education Department in the Fall of 2019, and has developed interests in entrepreneurial mindset and student development. In particular, she is interested in assessment of entrepreneurial mindset through both quantitative and quali- tative methods, and is currently working in both survey and concept map assessment. She was awarded an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship in April, 2022, and hopes to continue her research in entrepreneurial mindset assessment using narrative inquiry.Dr. Cheryl A.

of growth mindsets than their White peers,yet they also reported lower levels of fixed mindsets [13]. Said differently, Ge et al.’s [13] cross-sectional study showed that White engineering students demonstrate a higher predispositiontowards a growth mindset and a higher predisposition towards endorsing a fixed view of theirabilities. An exploratory study aimed at understanding the relationship between students’engineering identity and mindsets longitudinally found that both a fixed and a growth mindsetwere positive predictors of identity [14]. However, the authors did acknowledge that there may bemoderating effects not considered in the model, such as course difficulty, that may also helpexplain the positive relationships [14]. The studies

has emerged as a core skill for thesuccess of new graduates and career growth. While the leadership studies field enjoys a broadliterature base, there is concern that many leadership development efforts have not demonstratedquantitatively substantive impacts on their students [9]. Some suggest this may be due to thecomplex, individual, and dynamic nature of leader development [10].IdentityOne approach that has emerged to meet the challenges of leader formation is identity (how onesees oneself, and is seen by others, in society). This approach has seen growth in the leadershipstudies field (e.g.,[3]) but is yet to be widely applied within an engineering context [11].

Following other scholarship in engineering education research on social capital [15]we focus on social capital at the individual level [16]. Each student brings with them a socialnetwork to their undergraduate studies, although the extent to which that network is equipped tosupport them through their engineering studies might be variable [17].

ResearchersAbstractThis pilot study explores engineering students' views on social responsibility in undergraduateresearch experiences. Participants displayed high concern for human welfare and safety butneeded more education and training to understand the importance of being socially responsiblescientists and engineers. To address this, the authors recommend incorporating a formalcurriculum to facilitate students' understanding and articulation of their views on socialresponsibility in science and engineering research. The authors provide suggested case studiesfor engineering educators to incorporate social responsibility topics into their curriculum,enabling students to learn and debate the ethical and social implications of their research,promoting critical
