ReviewA brief review of literature on the incorporation of curricula related to DEI and the assessmentmethods utilized was conducted. These treatments ranged from separate courses related to DEI[3], activities embedded into first-year courses [4,5,6], design courses and design experiences[3,6,7], and embedded activities across multiple courses within the curricula [6,7]. The methodsutilized to assess the impact of DEI curricula were survey instruments using a Likert scale. Theseinstruments varied in breadth and degree of validation. The short form of the Miville-GuzmanUniversality Diversity Scale (M-GUDS-S) [8] was considered to be too general and not directlyapplicable to the engineering profession. Even the short form has 42 items in the survey
