PRA has been used to assessthe designs of high hazard, complex, low risk systems (such as chemical manufacturing plantsand nuclear power plants). PRA examines events that contribute to adverse outcomes through theuse of event tree analysis and determines the likelihood of event occurrence through fault treeanalysis.4.3 Establishing and Upgrading LaboratoriesIt is believed that technology concepts are best learnt with hands-on activities.

The scant researchthat does exist about low income, first generation students (LIFGs) is grounded in a deficiencymodel, focusing on what these students lack. Our project breaks with the existing scholarship byidentifying the ways in which LIFG knowledges and experiences outside the classroom,including the practical knowledge they develop in their lives and at work, could offer innovativeways for all students to define, solve and design for pressing engineering problems.

Such systems are usually studied and designed in single contexts (e.g., highschool environmental science classrooms, engineering design projects), so the knowledgegained, though rich, is difficult to
