itself more just and diverse.Additionally, the integration of social and technical aspects of engineering creates a shift towardsmaking engineering more interdisciplinary through the consideration of societal, cultural,historical, political, economic, and environmental implications of design. Engineering alonecannot solve large sociotechnical problems but can contribute towards solutions [8], [31].Similarly, the integration of social and technical aspects of engineering may lead to a shifttowards a more justice-oriented mindset of what it means to be an engineer. Namely, engineeringis not just about solving problems of efficiency for profit but is about solving problems forpeople in ways that bring about equity and improve quality of life.[1] S
filter is set to “2020–21,” each state is included in thegraph except for State_1, which was only able to provide data for the 2018–19 school year.Changing the school year to “2018–19” then causes State_1’s data to show up in the graph whilealso causing State_5’s data to disappear since they did not provide data for that year.Figure 4: Example visual from the data dashboardOther differences in the data between states are more problematic and not as easily resolved. Forexample, one state originally provided us with data on students’ race and ethnicity usingcategories that were not mutually exclusive, which we had to exclude entirely from thedashboard until they were able to recompile their data and provide us with mutually exclusivecounts.

used here the term ‘system map’ refers to a simplified graphical representation of how acomplex human-social-technical system behaves. ‘System’ derives from the Greek root systemameaning an organized whole compounded of parts. The positivist scientific revolution with itslogical chains of inference that engineering derives from sought to reduce problems into simpleparts, and as a result focused less on the whole. Initial work on systems arose in biology sincelife could not be well described by positivist methods. From its origins in organismal biologysystem science arose as a synthetic and interdisciplinary field in the 1960’s stimulated byadvances in computational methods. Since then the ideas of system science have beengeneralized to

While 40% of the GEAR-SR cohort participated ininterviews, additional interviews may be conducted to ensure a broader representation ofparticipant backgrounds and experiences. Investigating the specific elements of the GEARprogram that most significantly contribute to student outcomes will inform programenhancements and exploring the differential impacts of the GEAR program on students fromdiverse backgrounds, including those traditionally marginalized in engineering, could providevaluable insights.References[1] Alvarado, C., Villazon, S., & Tamer, B.

This shows that earned upper-level credits are very similar amongthe groups, but there are significant differences in the 100-level. Transfer students have moreearned credits, but many of their transfer courses only count toward general credit and do not fulfilldegree requirements. There is also a larger number of 100-level credits for students of color andPell-eligible students as they are more likely to transfer credits or change majors.
