and BackgroundDespite decades of targeted effort and resources, women remain dramatically underrepresentedin engineering fields (Yoder, 2012) and this underrepresentation can lead to a number ormarginalizing experiences. Researchers have demonstrated the ways in which masculine normsand values are reflected in engineering practice and therefore code the discipline as male(Dryburgh, 1999; Secules, 2019). At the same time, technical/social dualisms map intomale/female binaries in ways that inform and support beliefs about what counts as engineeringwork and what is peripheral to the practice (Faulkner, 2000, 2007). These factors combine towhat amounts for an unwelcoming or chilly climate for women in most engineering fields(Ambrose, Bridges

OurCatalyst grant team is comprised of a multi-disciplinary group of researchers leveraging expertisein quantitative and qualitative assessment in the social sciences, engineering, policy, and academicleadership. Our comprehensive data gathering effort seeks to assess equity in recruitment, hiring,renewal, promotion, and tenure activities at a large R1 public institution for both tenure-line andterm (contingent) faculty. We place an intersectional emphasis on this analysis, examining whetherinstitutional practices yield disparate outcomes on faculty not just along lines of gender and race,but also unique combinations thereof.The prior ASEE paper [1] focused on the data gathering effort for

This mindset distinction was particularly important for theauthors’ department as it also aligned well with efforts to infuse character education in theirundergraduate engineering department [12], [13].In this context, the authors and their department have engaged with the Kern EngineeringEducation Network (KEEN) to adapt pedagogies that enhance EM to promote inclusion towardsimproved student self-efficacy and motivation. The KEEN framework postulates the “three C’s”of EM: curiosity, connections and creating value [14]. This framework is used extensively withinthe ASEE community.
