writing component in a year-long senior capstone materialsscience and engineering (MSE) course sequence. This course requires students to completeprojects for clients and produce a written report, among other deliverables. To focus more onwriting education, the engineering professors brought in an English professor, who researchesengineering communication and is coordinating this project, to consult on assignments, commenton student work, and present on writing topics, including managing the writing aspect ofcollaborative work. Here, we assess the impacts of interventions on student writing andcollaboration, focusing on women’s experiences through a series of interviews. These interviewsfocused on learning more about women’s past experiences

transformation is toattract and retain traditionally underrepresented groups to engineering, particularly women, and in effect,increase departmental diversity.To achieve the goal of more women engineers, the CECM department will take advantage of, and betteralign itself with the existing experiential learning nature of its sister programs on campus andbeyond. This will include common coursework at the freshman level in the first year experience (FYE)courses, at the sophomore level in the surveying courses, at the junior level in the construction economicsand finance courses, and at the senior level in the capstone senior project course.

universal design in engineering curriculaAs our participants noted, there are few examples of accessibility and disability being included inthe engineering curricula. What are the best places to start introducing disability or UD into analready packed engineering curriculum? Capstone or cornerstone engineering design classes area natural fit for incorporating UD concepts into the engineering curriculum, challenging studentsto design for individuals of all abilities and backgrounds. Many engineering programs offerspecialty capstone design courses focused on assistive technology that provide a natural point forintroducing UD principles.

transition from capstone trainingto engineering practice. Engineering education is meant to prepare engineering students for thechallenges of the engineering workplace, but this is not the same as preparing women for the(presumably) gendered experiences of engineering work. This study aims to answer the question:What unique challenges do women face in their first year of engineering work?We ask this question to make way for the question: What should women be prepared for intransitioning to engineering work?We attempt to answer our main research question with a qualitative analysis of data from a largerstudy, the [Project] study.

populations.Humanitarian Engineering is an area which aims to promote human welfare through the creation,invention and modification of appropriate technologies. One of the specific goals is to address needs ofpeople who have been largely ignored by the engineering community [12]. Over the last decade,humanitarian engineering programs and organizations have emerged in large numbers in the US.Additionally, humanitarian engineering programs typically tend to attract larger number of femalestudents than mainstream engineering programs. For example, a study at the Colorado School of minesfound that the percent of female engineering students who were participating in capstone projects that hada humanitarian aspect were significantly larger than those participating in

We went to the lab and we just finished it.” I got so mad and I went to the professor and said, “He doesn’t—just share those projects, because I have to get a grade, too.” He said, “You chose him as a leader, so you have to go take care of it.” I sent him a few e-mails and asked him, “Okay, you should just give me more tasks, you have to just make—” I don’t know; he just never did.

Oneteam consisted of two men and two women. The mode of collaboration in this team wasdialogic. Another team consisted of two women and three men and the mode of collaborationhad the characteristics of dialogic, asymmetrical and hierarchical modes. In the first team,female students were treated equally with men and there was no major conflict among teammembers. But, in the second team, female students

(e.g., control of dynamicsystems, mass transfer). In this logic, students spend the majority of their time learning a longsequence of engineering “fundamentals” before they are deemed competent to engage in creativedesign problem solving in their final-year capstone projects.3 This approach is understood as“exclusionary” not in the sense of being elitist but in the more general sense of seeking to keepout that which does not belong, including those persons (or those facets of persons) not in linewith the dominant decontextualized, narrowly technical-analytic way of problem solving withinengineering. Lectures and focused problem sets remain the mainstay educational modalitieswithin university engineering education, even as wide-ranging

However,there are significant differences between ECE490 and our capstone design classes. First, unlikesenior design, ECE490 has a single course objective: Students will be able to apply theengineering design process. Second, it is a truly multi-disciplinary class, and in ECE490engineers of all majors (bio, civil, computer, electrical, and mechanical) work on multi-disciplinary teams developing solutions to real world problems.One of the most significant differences between ECE490 and the senior design sequence is

The most popular courses (as reported in Table 8)among the survey respondents were structural analysis and earthquake engineering. Senior(capstone/integrated) design, finite element analysis and foundation engineering were given thelowest ratings. The finding that capstone design was unpopular was somewhat surprising, but thesurvey questions did not allow us to uncover reasons behind these responses.Table 8. Respondents’ ratings
