grounded in threeengineering educational cultural norms: competition, masculinity, and whiteness. It draws on acombination of work in critical history and Science Technology and Society fields, and theauthor’s literature reviews of engineering education publications. While primarily relying onsecondary sources, it is in the combination of the accounts, the connection to present dayeducational cultural settings, and the communication to a specific audience of educationalstakeholders that comprises this work’s intellectual contribution.A prominent theme of the historical narrative is to suggest a reflexive relationship between thedemographic representation of the discipline and its cultural normativities. This interrelationshipsuggests ways in which

. Design Thinking is a very valuable enabler toattract high school students to engineering1. Design thinking facilitates inspiration,evokes ideation, and provides pathways for implementation and evaluation. Thisemerging discipline blends sensibility and processes, to match people’s needs with whatis technologically feasible.During 2016, the College of Engineering and Science at the University of Detroit Mercydeveloped and delivered a prototype two-week Design Thinking Summer Camp (DTSC)intended to engage high school students from across the community in human-centereddesign activities and, in the process, lay out a vision of how an engineering education canbe leveraged to create products and services that affect and improve peoples lives.The paper
