infrastructure resilience, and engineering ed- ucation. She taught 11 courses at UConn, including Statics, Structural Analysis, Senior Capstone Project, and new Structural Health Monitoring and Sensors courses. Dr. Jang is the recipient of the 2018 Civil Engineering Educator of the Year award from the Connecticut Society of Civil Engineers, the 2021 Dis- tinguished Engineering Educator Award from the UConn School of Engineering, and the 2021 ASEE Emerging Leader Fellow Award from the Civil Engineering Division. She is the newsletter editor of the ASEE Civil Engineering Division and the treasurer of the ASEE Northeast Section. In addition, she is a faculty advisor of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) UConn Chapter

(OSU). During his time at OSU, Sean taught multiple undergraduate engineering courses including, geotechnical engineering, highway design, surveying, and senior capstone design. His engineering education research aims to understand more about the gap in student preparedness for the engineering workplace. He has worked closely with engineering practitioners, faculty, and students to understand more about their problem-solving behavior, beliefs around engineering knowledge, and learning more about what it means to be an engineer. Sean enjoys being active outdoors with his family and friends while climbing, mountain biking, and camping.Audrey Dewey ©American Society for Engineering Education

roles for the second vignette, a capstone design scenario. One student was designated the “Team Leader”, one the “Team Member”, and the rest were “Observers”. In this vignette, the Team Member was to express concerns about calculation results, and the Team Leader was to respond in a such a way as to promote psychological safety. During the debrief for each vignette, the Observers led the discussion by sharing what they saw that promoted psychological safety and what they saw that hindered or removed it.Methods: This project was predicated on the research question: Does teaching psychological safety improve teaming experiences for first-year students? We hypothesized that we could improve students’ team interactions by directly

engineering design capstone course [13] [14].One group of educators identified a need for increased knowledge of sustainability, so theydeveloped a module with learning objectives that included definitions of basic concepts ofsustainability, sustainable development, the triple bottom line, cradle-to-cradle, life-cycleassessment and whole-system thinking, accompanied by application of the Envision ratingsystem to an infrastructure project [13]. The authors concluded that, although their PowerPointpresentation and assessment assisted in students achieving lower levels of development, deeperlearning and higher levels of achievement would require a dedicated sustainability engineeringcourse [13]. Another author described how the EnvisionTM rating system

capstone design course about theirdesign decisions. From the interviews, the authors analyzed the students’ interactions withstakeholders and their perception of the interaction. They found that in order for students toconsider a stakeholder interaction as “useful,” the students would either predefine clear goals forthe interaction, only interact with stakeholders whose expertise closely-aligned to their project, orgive control of the decisions to the stakeholder entirely. Information variability and interpretationand application of that information are a key part of engaging stakeholders that is avoided by thesestrategies. Expanding engineering students understanding of the value and purpose of stakeholders isincreasing in engineering

Paper ID #42244Exploring Civil Engineering and Construction Management Students’ Perceptionsof Equity in Developing Infrastructure ResilienceMiss Rubaya Rahat, Florida International University Rubaya Rahat grew up in Bangladesh, where she pursued her Bachelor of Science in Civil Engineering at the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). After graduating she worked for two years in a construction management company in Dhaka, Bangladesh. She was involved in various residential and infrastructure construction projects. Rubaya now is a Ph.D. candidate at Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering

approach different fields of civiland construction management is overall beneficial for a mixed class of students from bothmajors. Civil engineering students are able to learn about concepts that construction managerswill cover in further depth in their future courses, while construction managers are able toappreciate how civil engineers seek design solutions. While these students will only overlap in afew courses over their undergraduate degree (e.g., Engineering Economics), they are pairedtogether again in their final senior capstone design course. In that course, the students work witha project mentor from a local engineering firm to design a civil engineering system (e.g.,wastewater treatment plant, new transportation corridor, bridge

, modeling, simulation assignments,laboratory procedures, field activities, and capstone projects [11]. A primary purpose of hands-on activities is to provide learners with actual experiences that allow them to apply engineeringskills to reinforce knowledge and directly observe the outcomes of their efforts, which leads todeeper learning.In this study, a hands-on approach called, the Experiment-Centric Pedagogy (ECP) wasimplemented. This pedagogy has been found to actively engage learners by utilizing affordable,safe, and portable electronics in various educational settings (classrooms or laboratories). ECPcombines problem-solving exercises and constructive learning methods with a hands-on,portable multifunction tool that can be used in place of

third-year architecture studio and the creation of some electives. A numberof support courses could not be fully replicated in the semester curriculum. Courses such asdynamics, engineering economics, surveying, thermodynamics, fluid dynamics, electricalcircuits, were listed in the three Fundamental Engineering (FE) elective courses where studentscan choose which they wish to take from a prescribed list. The is also an ARCE TechnicalElective which has a much larger list of courses from which a student can choose.The ARCE quarter program had four culminating experiences to include the three design labsand a separate senior project. The concrete/masonry lab becomes the senior capstone project andthe independent senior project is now an elective

sustainability offers the only viable path to human safety, equity, health, andprogress” [21, p. 6]. There are strong synergies between ideas of generational equity andsustainable development, for example [22], [23]. Within civil engineering, the infrastructuresustainability rating system Envision [24] is commonly used. Envision has been integrated intoengineering education as a method to educate students about sustainability [25], [26], [27]. DEIissues are included within the Envision credits including the following examples: • QL1.2 Enhance Public Health and Safety [24, p. 32] • “Measures taken to increase safety and provide health benefits on the project site, surrounding sites, and the broader community in a just and equitable
