Eight (20%) of the no-ethics classstudents reported not cheating on a web-based exam in a typical semester, whule 17 (41%) of theethics-class students did not report an incidence of web-based test cheating.

One potential reason that has yet to beexplored relates to the cultural and spiritual barriers that could deter AI/AN people from feelinga sense of belonging in engineering fields. These barriers may create obstacles to progressingthrough engineering career pathways. Our research investigates the range and variation ofcultural/spiritual/ethical issues that may be affecting AI/AN people’s success in engineering andother science, technology, and mathematics fields. The work reported here focuses on findingsfrom students and professionals in engineering fields specifically.
