encouraged to discuss the Code of Ethics by the AmericanSociety of Civil Engineers [18] and the principles that govern the civil engineering profession:“create safe, resilient, and sustainable infrastructure; treat all persons with respect, dignity, andfairness in a manner that fosters equitable participation without regard to personal identity;consider the current and anticipated needs of society; and utilize their knowledge and skills toenhance the quality of life for humanity.” The ASCE Code of Ethics indicates society as itsmain stakeholder, followed by the natural and built environment, the profession, clients andemployers, and peers. This code specifically calls engineers’ attention to “a. first and foremost,protect the health, safety, and

addressed, through outreach and education, it will not be possible to increase adoption of EVs.Additionally, this study will contribute a foundation that can be used to choose locations for thedeployment of electrified technology based on the resilience of the power grid that takes intoconsideration the public perception for infrastructure development.The results showed that URCs have remarkable interest in EVs, ChSs and ERWs. Mostparticipants showed some knowledge about EVs, to a lesser degree on ChSs, and none on ERWs.Results also indicate an evident gap of essential knowledge of EV technology in URCs being themain barrier to EVs widespread diffusion and adoption. Given the fact that most URCs residentslacked EV technology information, they

research in engineering with a clear focus on societal outcomes. Davis is working with several faculty on campus to develop research and curriculum at the intersection of human rights and engineering, such as the one discussed herein. Davis completed his Ph.D. in Transportation and Infrastructure Systems at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana, in 2018. His research interests include transportation equity, human rights, environmental justice, and economic resilience. He grew up in Cusco, Per´u, where he obtained his B.S. in civil engineering at the University of San Antonio Abad of Cusco. He also earned an MSCE degree from the University of Puerto Rico at Mayag¨uez.Shareen Hertel, University of Connecticut
