  Early Career Engineers’ Views of Ethics and Social Responsibility: Project OverviewIntroductionDespite recommendations from leading stakeholders for increased attention to ethics inengineering education [1, 2], a growing body of anecdotal and empirical evidence suggests acontinuing lack of serious attention to ethics, social responsibility, and related topics in mostengineering degree programs [3-5]. To address this, organizations like the National Academy ofEngineering have taken steps to identify best practices and exemplary programs as “a resourcefor those who seek to improve the ethical development of engineers at their own institutions” [6].Recent research in engineering ethics has also aimed to measure

values, self-efficacy and identity. The results provide strong cross-sample evidence of the reliability andvalidity of each of the measures. The results of the multi-model comparative analysis did notfully support the hypothesis (H4), regarding how these constructs may combine to driveengagement in extracurricular engineering-related activities. However, we do find partialsupport for it. Namely, past research [2], found that engineering values operates as a distalmotivator of engagement in engineering-related activities, and the results presented here do notcontradict this finding. Instead they offer a revised model that includes both engineering valuesand identity as distal drivers of engagement with and intervening impact of student self

While quantitative methods canbroadly identify the presence and prominence of marginalized inclusion, they often lack thedepth needed to foster a comprehensive understanding of inclusion. In contrast, qualitative andnarrative-based approaches offer rich accounts of marginalized experiences and perspectives butstruggle to reach a broad faculty audience.

calculated in each frame and passedthrough all the VQ codebooks. A soft decision approach to generate the SNR estimate asdescribed in [1] is used. The codebooks with the three best scores are selected. Based onthese scores, a weighted linear combination of the SNR estimates corresponding to thesethree codebooks determines the final SNR estimate. This is known as a soft decisionapproach [1].The student research team implemented the VQ based system and a similar system basedon a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) classifier. For this case, a GMM model for eachSNR value is designed using the Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm [9][10].
