women and theywere warmly encouraged to pursue education. Several researchers encouraged female students bymotivating them. They believed that women who wish to take up engineering work must not getdiscouraged by the initial difficulties and the absence of well-defined openings and thatopportunities will emerge in time [31]. Starting in 1979, more women have been enrolled in highereducation than men in the United States. However, this proportion is not reflected in the field ofengineering. On June 19, 1964, the United States passed Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964prohibiting employment discrimination based on sex, race, color, religion, and national origin.This act made it possible for an increase in the number of women in the

They are motivated to work harder and provethe naysayers wrong, especially when the nays are coming from faculty members that they arenot fond of [20].But, in some instances, the experiences at their respective institutions resulted in them exploringmore avenues that helped yield a greater resilience. Some students left their programs to self-reflect [19], some transferred to more supportive departments or universities [20], and someimmersed themselves in

Without many experiences in classes or through co-curricular activities that showhow personal and professional experiences can be integrated, students are likely tocompartmentalize those senses of social responsibility. Those who do have significantopportunities to consider how their personal goals positively impact their work will go throughan evaluative and reflective process, visualized below, to take stock of how they can live theirpersonal social responsibility goals through their profession. Thus, Canney and Bielefeldt argue,the ​professional connectedness​ realm of social responsibility development requires engineers toconsider the opportunity costs and benefits of their decisions.

librarians now "believe that‘understanding some ethical, legal, economic, and socio-political information issues’ is anelement of IL" [9]. This approach is reflected in the ACRL’s Framework for InformationLiteracy for Higher Education [4].IL instruction for graduate students takes various forms. It can be integrated into a graduatecourse or delivered as a stand-alone workshop. It can also be offered as a one-shot session or as aseries of sessions. The latter offers the opportunity to establish a relationship with students,compared to the one-shot session, and appears to have a much greater impact on studentretention [9, 10].

The thirdmeans of data collection is interviews with students. Participants are asked interview questions atthe end of the program reflecting on the lessons and how they connected empathy andengineering. The interviews consist of questions such as: was there a time during the day whenyou connected with a peer or teacher and learned about how they felt about their project or thetopic at the time? If so, how did this connection affect you? and think back to a time today whenyou were faced with a challenge. What did you do to try and tackle

This vision has been appropriated for American engineering curricula considering thatengineering can have a humanistic approach through specific courses or methodologies, theassessment of their activities from a perspective of the ethics, and the reflection about therelationship between engineering and technology, including its impacts [8]. In that sense, themain objective is deconstructing engineering from a utilitarian perspective, based on effectivityand loyalty to institutions, to reconstruct it in a libertarian or communitarian perspective based

The skills developedfrom working in a team are an important outcome of first-year design experiences. We found thatas students reflected on the course with more time removed from taking the course theyidentified different aspects of teamwork as useful.

Previous studies on Black women inengineering industry, although few, have often focused on women with more extensiveexperiences (ten years or more).We also note that the smallness of the sample is an indicator of earlier barriers to entry intoengineering and graduation rates that must be addressed if more Black women are to enter theworkforce.

First, the currentpaper only reports a fraction of the emergent themes. Second, the VCP members interviewed forthe project were self-selected and may not be reflective of STEM faculty not participating in theVCP. In addition, the linguistic and conceptual analysis is not presented here as the interpretationis ongoing and will be deepened in future rounds of analysis.
