100ConclusionsThe Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) has amended their GeneralCriteria to now include DEI principles with the aim of ensuring students have the “ability tofunction effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborativeand inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks and meet objectives. Further, the facultycriteria now states that “program faculty must demonstrate awareness and abilities appropriate toproviding an equitable and inclusive environment for its students and knowledge of appropriateinstitutional policies on diversity, equity and inclusion [25]. There is an urgent need forengineering education to morph both teaching content and practices to graduate studentsequipped to

Professor with the Dept. of Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering and the Institute for Advanced Systems Engineering at the University of Connecticut. He received his PhD from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and his BS from the University of Minnesota – Twin cities, both in chemical engineering. In his post-doctoral work, he cofounded a water-tech start-up company focusing on developing flexible high-efficiency solar-driven desalination technologies for di- verse applications where membrane technologies prove inadequate. At UConn, his core research focus is on optimization theory, methods, and software for modeling and simulation, robust simulation and design, and controls and operations. His

, one of them being “… a growing need for interdisciplinary andsystem-based approaches …”. As technology advances, there is an increasing demand for aninterdisciplinary approach to translate operational needs and requirements into a system solution thatsatisfies customer expectations and meets public acceptability [4].Such an approach requires engineers to be able to identify various stakeholders, understand their roles, andeffectively communicate with them to facilitate the identification and implementation of possible solutions.In the system engineering design process, identifying the right functional and non -functional systems
