to be in need of a major transformation is the energy engineering education. According to the World Economic Forum [1]-[3], the demand for workers in so-called “green” fields have been rising exponentially, by far outstripping the supply of available workers. In 2023, only one out of eight workers had one or more “green” skills. Between 2022 and 2023, the number of people listing on their LinkedIn profiles at least one “green” skill increased by a meager 12.3%, while the number of job postings requiring at least one “green" skill increased by nearly twice as much (22.4%). Correspondingly, the hiring rate for workers with at least one green skill was 29% higher than the workforce average [4]. One of the main reasons for the

. For these reasons, engineeringepistemologies were identified as a critical area of research in the special report The ResearchAgenda for the New Discipline of Engineering Education (RAEE) [9]. However, in a recentreview of EER from 1992-2022, Katz et al. [10] point out that epistemologies in EER were themost understudied from the five research areas laid out in the 2006 RAEE special report [9].They urge researchers to take stock of previous work and design the next research agenda.Surprisingly, they do not directly highlight the need to focus on engineering epistemologies, eventhough epistemologies remain understudied in engineering education.

Theyboth encourage publicly available models that afford collaboration through modification, making,selling, improvement, and distribution. This represents a shift in the traditional method thatacademics use for research and publishing but a necessary one to increase diversity, equity,inclusion, and justice in STEM. By not restricting access to work behind journal paywalls orconference fees, communities with limited resources can still benefit from them.

2020 or 2021 and virtual research occurred foronly two students in 2021. In 2022, the world re-opened, international travel resumed, and theselected group of students felt unprepared for the experience. The long-term impact of theCOVID-19 pandemic is unknown. Thus, it is essential to identify the characteristics and factorsthat enable or hinder academic achievement. Previous studies e.g., [10], [11], and [12] created aquestionnaire to assess students’ self-efficacy, resilience, help-seeking/adaptation, academicstructure, personal structure, and academic/professional concerns related to COVID-19 yieldingpositive results about students' perceptions of mentorship and support.With coaching from their summer research abroad coordinator, they

Also, a study in 2022, indicates that the primary reason girls do not chooseengineering is because of lack of knowledge and understanding of what engineering is and whatthey do [5].

Having engineers incorporate societal issues into their design work is arequirement of not only our accrediting body ABET, it is a professional obligation according tothe Engineer’s Code of Ethics[6, 7].
