However, there is a lack of investigation into how engineering learningenvironments can be designed to facilitate students’ (re)negotiation with these relationships.Making, defined by Sheridan et al. [8] as a process to develop an idea and construct it into somephysical or digital form, can be a space for rich transdisciplinary engineering learning andpractice [9] [10]. Making is a form of “heterogeneous engineering” [11] - engineering thatemphasizes not only the technical aspect, but also the social, material, and political dynamics[12].

The portrayal of Iron Man, aquintessential symbol of masculinity and technological prowess, further underscores theassociation between engineering and hypermasculinity, perpetuating a narrative of maledominance and superiority. This may also convey the message that being a mechanical engineeris grandiose or that it can lead to grandiose things, and that any other engineering majors (e.g.,civil, industrial) may fall short.
