Alejandro Mejia, University of Cincinnati Dr. Joel Alejandro (Alex) Mejia is a Professor of Engineering Education in the Department of Engineering and Computing Education at the University of Cincinnati. His work examines the intersections of engineering, social justice, and critical pedagogies. He focuses on dismantling deficit ideologies in STEM, centering Latino/a/x student experiences—especially of those along the U.S.-Mexico border. His work draws on Chicana/o/x studies, raciolinguistics, and bilingual education to explore how language, race, and socialization shape engineering pathways and engineering practice.

Once internalized, this stereotype begins to shape their interestsand can significantly constrain the range of careers they consider in the future [9, 10]. When, from an early age,girls are exposed to the pervasive stereotype that men possess superior abilities in mathematics and science; thiscan negatively impact their experiences and opportunities across multiple stages of their lives [11].
