five weeks of RAMP, we added one-hour meetings twice a week committed toworkshops focusing on DEIB. The nine workshops that students participated in were based onvarious themes such as team building, intersectional identities, going beyond one’s comfort zone,culture wheels, power and privilege, microaggressions, identifying strengths and challenges,ethics, and exploring music and art reflective of the cultural heritage of the participants. Weemployed a variety of pedagogical strategies during the workshops including but not limited todiscussions, role plays, and games. Table 3 shows the structure of each of the nine workshops.

This convergence of knowledgeand responsibility to others and the earth rewrite the field of engineering through a decolonized,non-Eurocentric lens, and it balances the scales of credibility by offering freedom from prejudicethat privileges whiteness, maleness, ableism, heterosexuality, etc. With this liberation, we canensure women and those with non-centered identities have space to thrive and contribute to thebetterment of this world, as is a long-standing tenant of the engineering profession [1].ConclusionEpistemic injustice is a system of inequity that perpetuates an exclusionary culture to womenbased on their perceived

The process follows the ethical principles of Finnish universities’ feedbacksurveys [20], established by the Finnish Council of University Rectors.The questions used in this study consisted of closed questions, with alternatives to choosefrom or statements to be evaluated with a 6-point Likert scale. In addition to these, therespondents were asked to report their monthly income in euros as well as the duration oftheir possible unemployment in years and months. The exact questions and their

We believe this study will give a glimpse into how a woman’s religious identity caninfluence their engineering identity which could lead to greater understanding of the role of religion inengineering spaces and encourage more effective support structures.

Additionally, intervention or implementation of social determinants of health, suchas education, socioeconomics, community, and health care have substantive value in fosteringenvironments facilitating a student’s work ethic and retention.Females enrolled in STEM programs, particularly electrical engineering, often do not completethe program. The sense of unbelonging in electrical engineering is more prevalent amongunderrepresented groups. These students change programs during the second or third semestersafter enrollment [8-9]. Academic and workplace environments in engineering are not alwayswelcoming to female counterparts, leaving females with a sense of unbelonging [10-11]. Withpaucity of

To improve the perceptions of womxnand other underrepresented identities in STEM, the representation of scientists and engineers needsto be shifted in the classroom and in media. Textbooks, educational videos, and classroomexamples need to depict people with different genders, races, and ethnographies, allowing youngstudents to see themselves as engineers. Teachers need to be trained on how to avoidmicroaggressions and foster inclusivity in classrooms.

Since this data is publiclyavailable, our research ethics board does not require research study review.Gender data was limited to the categories “male” and “female”. We will use these terms whenexamining the data, but will use the terms “men” and “women” in discussing the results in linewith our constructionist approach to gender [33]. We acknowledge that there is a difference inmeaning between these terms (e.g., male versus man), and that the dataset does not represent allgenders (i.e., non-binary).Racial data was distributed among the following categories: ● American Indian/Alaska Native ● Asian ● Black ● Foreign ● Hispanic ● Multiracial (added in 2010) ● Native Hawaiian
