Committee Participation: Serve on critical committees and bodies (Academic Senate, GE Committee, College Curriculum Committee, etc.) to help influence policy and decisions.Implementing the PlanThe university decision to convert to semesters was announced in October 2021 (Fall quarter2021) and the draft curricular plan was due late January 2023 (Winter quarter 2023). With 16months to complete the plan, a timeline was developed with elements of the plan due to becompleted in Fall 2021, Winter 2022, Spring 2022, Summer 2022, Fall 2022 and Winter 2023.That initial

EACCriterion 5, stipulating expanded incorporation of DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) intocurricula. While these topics have begun to enter the broader civil and environmentalengineering curriculum and have made monumental gains in coverage [1], they have less oftenbeen integrated into structural engineering. The current undergraduate structural engineeringcurriculum at our institution lacks the incorporation and facilitation of the necessary skills tosupport the entrepreneurial mindset development needed for multi-faceted disaster riskmanagement. As many structural engineers begin their practice after undergraduate education, itis critical to begin to integrate and build these skills before they enter practice [2], [3].

incompletewithout engineers becoming more aware of long-term implications of their engineering work onsociety, especially those concerning how costs and benefits of civil engineering projects aredistributed across different social groups and affect their wellbeing in the long-run [3]. Forexample, it has been argued that engineering education should put greater emphasis onengineers’ social responsibility toward "an equal distribution of rights, opportunities, andresources in order to enhance human capabilities and reduce the risk and harms among thecitizens of a society" [4, p. 10]. Thus, complementary education on social justice implications ofcivil engineering may benefit civil engineering education further.We argue that integration of social implications

students’ perceptions of Equity in Developing Infrastructure ResilienceAbstractRecent years have seen a substantial shift in the field of civil engineering (CE) and constructionmanagement (CM) education and workforce development, with an increased emphasis onsustainability and resilience. Sustainability considers economic, ecological, and social aspectswhile addressing problems pertaining to human welfare, the environment, and communityimpact. Resilient infrastructure maintains both structural and functional integrity whilesupporting interdependent social, transportation, water, and energy systems, even aftercatastrophic disasters. Although many civil engineering programs address sustainability,resiliency is

among students toward the subject matter [9].Undergraduate education faces substantial challenges, notably observed in expansive universitylecture classes [10, 11]. These challenges stem from increasing class sizes that make itprogressively arduous for college instructors to motivate students for class preparation andparticipation in discussions. To address this issue, integrating student-led group lecture deliveriesinto the curriculum has been proposed as a potential solution in this study. The importance ofstudent engagement, especially within group interactions, is instrumental in cultivating essentialskills crucial for academic success and holistic development [10].

-incomepeople and/or persons of color [2]. Considering equity as an integral dimension of infrastructureis becoming more common, particularly in transportation [3, 4] and water [5]. The current ASCECode of Ethics [6] implies that civil engineers should strive for equitable infrastructure. Forexample, under the society stakeholder, civil engineers should “acknowledge the community'sdiverse historical, social, and cultural needs and incorporate these considerations in their work.”The idea of equitable infrastructure also aligns with the new ABET civil engineering programcriteria (CEPC). Specifically, in November 2023 the Engineering Accreditation Commission(EAC) of ABET approved new civil engineering criteria that state: “The curriculum mustinclude: A

Similarly, they can also help engineers to buildpersonal confidence. A study at Lafayette College found through emphasizing morals in theengineering classroom, students were more confident in their abilities to develop solutions insocially complex situations [21]. In another study at Loyola University in Chicago, it was seenthat by including social justice topics across the engineering curriculum, retention rates ofminority engineering students increased [17]..Students who have been negatively affected orseen their community impacted by an engineering project, may feel left out and

course offered in the School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, students explore thedirect and indirect stakeholders involved in a coastal engineering design example. During an in-class session, students learn how to brainstorm the values and norms of stakeholders that theyidentify, and then integrate those values into design criteria such that it benefits a broader swathof the community. The students then applied the VSD concepts to a course project that requiredthem to create design criteria that satisfied stakeholder’s needs beyond the original client. Theinclusion of this activity in the course curriculum created students who were more invested andaware of the potential impacts of their design.Introduction and Literature Review

Using a data streamer, they were able to read moisture content readings in real-time.Prior to testing, Arduino code had been integrated to allow for simple conversion from electricalto digital phase.

Instructors shouldalso consider hidden curriculum related to overwork [30-32]. If we imply that engineeringstudents should always be studying, this might contribute to poor mental health. It might alsodiscourage students from persisting in engineering to earn their degree or enter the engineeringworkforce. Alternatively, we can encourage students to develop a healthy balance which includesattending to the eight dimensions of well-being via an array of activities.References[1] National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and
