significant increase from the 17.8% recorded in 2010[1]. However, this growth has not been reflected in the workplace. Between 2001 and 2019, thenumber of women engineers in the workforce only rose from about 10% to 14% [2]. Theunderrepresentation of women is particularly pronounced in mechanical, electrical, and computerengineering, with only 17.5%, 15.6%, and 20.4% of bachelor’s degrees in these fields awarded towomen [1]. Furthermore, women represent only 9%, 10%, and 12% of working engineers inthese respective fields [3].For underrepresented minorities, the statistics are even more dismal. Bachelor’s degrees inengineering awarded to Black or African American individuals have risen only slightly from4.5% in 2010 to 4.7% in 2021 [1]. Hispanics now

study related to asset-basedpractices.2. BackgroundAppreciative Inquiry is often used as a themed methodology of conducting interviews [5], [6],[7] or focus groups [8], [9] and as an organizational change framework in higher education [8],[10], [11], [12], [13]. A preliminary search for APPI in the ASEE PEER database and a search for“engineering education AND appreciative inquiry” across abstracts, keywords, or titles onProQuest databases yielded only around 37 results. Those studies that do discuss APPI primarilyreference the method for structuring interviews for data gathering [5], [6], [7]. The next mostcommon use of APPI was as a framework for guiding organizational change in severaleducational contexts, including but not limited to
