, engineering is more oftenassociated with math and science and “things” rather than people19. Engineers are also associatedwith poor social skills and jobs that are nearly entirely technical15. These associations can makeit hard for some students to see themselves as engineers. For example, Du5 notes that theprofessional identity of an engineer is associated with technology and mechanical ability, thusaligning engineering with the male gender. This alignment is reinforced by the long history ofprimarily male engineers. This restrictive definition of what an engineer is can make it harder formany students (especially women and students of color) who are interested in engineering toidentify with engineering.Identity development depends on two factors

workplace [9]–[14].One critical aspect missing from prior investigations is the explicit examination of Blackengineers’ experiences with racism. Engineering education research has not typically addressedracism directly, yet it is the root of all racial barriers and negative experiences. With this project,we aim to add depth to workplace research through narrative analysis of both the structural andindividual acts of racism affecting the experiences of Black engineers.MethodologyThis work in progress is part of a larger narrative analysis project aimed at investigating theworkplace experiences of Black engineers in the technology industry [15]. For this paper, wefocus on initial data that were collected within the pilot phase of the project. The
percentage of students graduating with engineering degrees in theU.S. compared to the rest of the world. This creates a shortage of skilled engineers required tokeep pace with the rest of the world in terms of technological and industrial development.Therefore, there is a significant emphasis on improving engineering education in the UnitedStates. For instance, in a report by the U.S. National Academy of Engineering titled “Educatingthe engineer of 2020” [4], it was recommended that engineering education be reinvented. Thesame report discussed the importance of understanding the students’ learning challenges anddevising better pedagogical approaches to improve engineering education. Along the same lines,one of the grand challenges [5] in the
Lego® robotics to Computer Aided Design (CAD)/3D printingfor the purpose of introducing engineering students to the design process began in the Fall 2017semester. The impetus behind the transition was the desire to provide students with an earlierexposure to CAD, utilize technologies more closely resembling those used in industry, allowstudents to participate in developing realistic projects, and provide exposure to the design formanufacturing concept. Additionally, completion of this course has provided students withtransferrable CAD skills which have reportedly had significant impact on helping students toobtain internships. In the current approach, the risks of premature fixation [6] and boundedideation are mitigated by requiring the
leadership skills by undergraduate engineering students is keyto a successful long-term career and has been highlighted by both the profession, academia andgovernment funding agencies as a critical need [1]. Increasing diversity and inclusion inleadership is also critical for technology companies as they become global enterprises [2].Research on pre-college variables on leadership skills of undergraduate engineering studentsfound that co-curricular experiences result in team-based leadership skill experiences forstudents. Underrepresented Minority (URM) students that participated in URM organizationsexpressed greater leadership skill development. However, “students’ precollege characteristicsand experiences have minimal contribution to students
