Originally conceptualized by Rittel & Webber [2], wicked problemsare problems with multiple stakeholders and competing demands, which often contain ethical,social, political, or environmental dimensions. They are challenging to frame and scope, giventhe lack of an obvious “stopping point” when the problem to solution process is complete.Wicked problems reflect pressing societal issues like climate change, transportation and urbandevelopment, healthcare and technological unemployment – problems that frequently engage thetechnical expertise of engineers but require a breadth of disciplinary knowledge outside ofengineering as well, requiring strong collaborative skills and an intellectual

The data presentedhere suggest to some extent that LGBTQ people score similarly to their peers on indicators ofscience and engineering identity, but that attention to their experiences is still warranted. AsLGBTQ issues become politicized across the nation, LGBTQ individuals need safe environmentsin STEM fields to nurture their intrinsic motivation and pursue fulfilling careers.1.0 Introduction The purpose of this research paper is to test differences in science and engineeringidentity among students based on minoritized sexual and gender identities.

cultural andintellectual domination of the Europeans [6]. This historical has implications for how science,technological, and engineering knowledge has been created and the voices that have been left outof the creation of that knowledge [7]. Additionally, criticism of surface-level, performativedecoloniality (e.g. official statements) shows that there is room to create more practical,meaningful tools for moving from statements to action [8]. Little has been done in STEM fieldsto connect disciplines with decoloniality, thus the opportunity to focus tools for decoloniality insystems engineering is fruitful.Most curricula then recommend their set of stakeholder analysis that they think are appropriate totheir domains.
