The lack of validated assessment methods for process safety thinking, coupledwith the general lack of authentic situations in which students can make these decisions presentsus with an opportunity to address both points. In this paper, we will discuss both the creation of avirtual process safety environment which attempts to address the authenticity issue, as well as thedevelopment of an assessment tool, the Engineering Process Safety Reasoning Instrument(EPSRI), which is based on previous work in assessing students’ moral and ethical reasoning inan engineering context.Project ObjectivesThis work

The surveys also measured personalendorsements including the importance of ethical considerations in engineering decisions,the value of professional skills compared to technical training, and empathy. Data analysisrevealed that among novice students, the more they believed that the ECE professionafforded opportunities to benefit society and work with others (i.e., had prosocial value), themore interested they were in the class and in turn, the more they intended to persist in theirECE degree program. This persistence intentions relationship was not true for studentbeliefs about the ECE profession affording opportunities to gain wealth, power, and

For three years, the program recruits acohort of 10 students/year who work on a number of advanced manufacturing related projects for10 weeks in the summer starting from last week of May through first week of August. Eachstudent has to complete both research ethics and lab safety training before starting their research.All students are mentored by a professor and also a graduate student. In other words, eachstudent has a faculty and as well as a graduate student mentor. For 2018 cohort, all facultymentors were from College of Engineering. The mentors guide the students in selecting theresearch project and also throughout the progress of the research. Students participate in weeklymeetings

DevelopmentSystems thinking is the ability to view problems and develop solutions from a systems levelperspective, understanding the complex technical, industrial, social, and ethical implications. Webelieve this to be essential to a researcher’s ability to transform fundamental research intocomplete engineering systems [6]. The transformation of fundamental research into completesystems, known as translation, is a priority to the advancement of nanotechnology according toNSF [7] and a key focus area of the Centers. However important, systems thinking is not theonly skill necessary for success.A range of other professional and career skills are also valuable and are well articulated in theNational Academy of Engineering publication, The Engineer of 2020 [4

The algae basedexperiments present engineering fundamentals and scientific principles, and providestudents/educators hands-on experience with engineering experiments and problem-solving. Theexperiments also include concepts from both the humanities and social sciences, such as ethics,gender and racial biases.

Appendix B.On the first day of class (for undergraduates) or before the first session (for high schoolstudents), this survey was distributed and collected by a sociology graduate student, so thatrespondents would not feel that their answers would prejudice the professor towards them oneway or another. After removing unique identifiers from the survey, the engineering professorsgraded them. Each professor was responsible for the same questions at Time 1 (before thecourse) and Time 2 (after the course) so as to maintain as much uniformity in grading aspossible. No grade was attached to the survey, as per ethical guidelines, but students were told to“do their best.”Research Questions:Thus, our research questions include: i) what is the knowledge

. Students expected to gain confidence, skills, and relationshipsthrough the program.All students expressed an interest in pursuing a career in STEM and hoped to use thisprogram as a way to help them refine what they wanted to do for graduate school.Students reported an increase in knowledge about ethical research conduct, graduateeducation at UNL, and how to apply for graduate school. Other skills students gained werecommunication skills and interdisciplinary work. Students felt most strongly they gained anability to complete research independently. They also felt mostly satisfied with mentorinteractions and the social events during the REU. 4

They also noted that not all veterans are the same:Navy veterans are different from Army veterans, etc., but still they have more common ground,and similar work ethic, than they do with the traditional population of students.

political identity, social welfare, and perspectives ofdiversity. In reflecting on the personal impact of recent national events and how politicaldiscussions have or have not been integrated into their STEM courses, two themes emerged: 1)political awareness and 2) future-self impact. Findings revealed that first year engineeringstudents recognized the personal and social impacts current national events imposed on theirfriends, family, and society. However, students did not sense the significance of politicaldiscourse concerning the social impact and ethical practice of engineering. Our research showsthat limiting political discourse in the classroom and depoliticizing engineering spacescontributed to students dissociating the relevance of political
