engineering in 46 episodes of approximately 10 minuteseach. Over the course of the series, the origin of each branch of engineering was discussed,followed by discussion of core concepts of conservation, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, heatand mass transfer, materials, statics, safety and ethics. The series then described applications ofthe different engineering fields, including robotics, genetic engineering, and signal processing, aswell as specific extensions of core engineering fields, such as transportation and geotechnicalengineering. The series concluded with an explanation of engineering design, careers inengineering, and the future problems to be solved. The authors of this paper were part of the collaboration in the development and

study with this being “What are the 10-20 most importanttopics in [your discipline] and how these are related?”.MethodologyAt the first week of the term, in the first tutorial session of the class, students enrolled in thecourse CHBE 220 were presented with an exercise to use concept mapping to outline the 10-20most important concepts in chemical and biological engineering and map out how these conceptswere related. Students in the class were first presented with a consent form approved by theuniversity’s Research Ethics Board explaining the study. All students in the course were asked tocomplete concept maps and these were marked only for completion. Concept map data fromstudents not opting in to the study was not used for further analysis

No 30 73For each course, the respondents moved sliders to choose what fraction of the course was spenton various potential topics. The averages of the responses are reported in Table 7. Student andprofessional skills were described in the survey as “study skills, ethics, communication, etc.”Technical skills were described as “CAD, programming, statics, etc.” Safety included “personalsafety, occupational, health, and process safety hazards”. The fraction of class time spent on thedifferent topics was remarkably the same from introduction to engineering courses tointroduction to discipline courses. The introduction to engineering courses spend more time ondesign and student & professional

. The new space, MIL, is openly branded as a “Safe Space”(by use of AIChE & ASEE branded Safe Zone signs). To warrant such a claim, the MIL issupervised by faculty with extensive diversity and inclusion training, who has had years ofexperience addressing related issues, should they ever arise. Additionally, inclusion training andconflict resolution is part of the curriculum of the courses taught in MIL, as well as theprerequisites to these courses. Each course in this space is also guided by a class diversity andinclusion statement, in which it is made clear to the students on the first day that inclusion is akey part of professional engineering ethics and is expected in our classrooms and laboratories.Furthermore, care is taken to signal

of encouraging peermentoring [22]. To facilitate teamwork, students completed and submitted their Meyers-Briggstype including weight of each category with follow up discussions on how differences inpersonalities could make for positive or negative collaboration experience. Other activities tofacilitate teamwork included a Code of Ethics co-written by teams, a signed list of participationfor each member at each gate, and a teammate review for all team members at the end of thesemester. The final review contributed to 5% of student final grade.Instrument and procedure The instruments were iteratively developed since 2016 fall semester, with the overall goalof receiving feedback from students to further improve the learning experience
