for Engineering Education, 2021 Raising Algorithm Bias Awareness among Computer Science Students through Library and Computer Science InstructionAbstractWe are a computer science professor and two librarians who work closely with computer sciencestudents. In this paper, we outline the development of an introductory algorithm bias instructionsession. As part of our lesson development, we analyzed the results of a survey we conducted ofcomputer science students at three universities on their perceptions about search-engine andbig-data algorithms. We examined whether an information literacy component focused onalgorithmic bias was

Campus is home to university departments and centers, as well as corporate,government, and industrial partners. The campus has been under development since 1987, buthas seen the most significant growth in the last decade. The College of Textiles was the firstcollege to be located on Centennial, moving into a four-building complex in 1991. This Collegeis made up of two departments, with 50 faculty and approximately 1,000 undergraduates and 100graduate students. The College of Engineering, with nine departments, 333 faculty, 5,900undergraduate students and 2,800 graduate students, has been moving over in stages since 2004.At present, three of five planned engineering buildings are open, with six of the nine departmentspermanently located on the
