Other women spoke about licensure in the context of whether it was requiredby their employer for their current roles. Women in this group mentioned both instances wheretheir license was required as well as those where it wasn’t. One woman mentioned her licensehaving value even in a role where it wasn’t required, sharing that “Working in the environmentalfield, the 'engineering' designation carries a certain weight over other enviro professionals, so Ido identify with it and include it in my email signature, etc. It's a requirement for my currentrole, mind you, but [for] my previous position [it] wasn't.” (WW, IR: 7/10).Theme 3

exposed to DEI discussions and become aware of unintended inequities suffered byminority populations, feelings of shame or even perceived loss of status/privilege can materializeas disruptions to the discussion that are counterproductive. As noted in the Rottman article, it iscritical that the discussion tone “shift from rational argumentation to respectful dialogue byincluding mindful listening activities”. The cautionary tale described in the Rottman articleserved as guidance in this study's development.To address these issues, an intervention was proposed to reframe DEI as a central tenet of ethicsand professional responsibility for the 21st century engineering workforce. Several professionalengineering organizations (e.g., American Society of

way.Although there is no official data publicly available for comparison, given that we know manyengineering graduates do not become licensed, and even at four years post graduation onlyaround 45 percent of graduates become licensed [6], our sample consisting of 88 percent licensedProfessional Engineers was a large overrepresentation of this group; this suggests our samplewas likely missing those who have exited engineering completely. These characteristics of oursample are all considerations to keep in mind as readers reflect on our findings below.Table 1.Sample Comparison with 2021 Canadian Census Data Engineering Graduates
