Backyards and BeyondAbstractThis paper presents three models for integrating environmental justice topics into environmental/ civil engineering courses. The first model utilizes a qualitative perspective, based on a videorecording of the community panel at the 2019 American Society for Engineering Education(ASEE) Annual Conference. This panel provides numerous examples of environmental justiceissues from the lived perspective of residents, including issues associated with industrial airpollutants from Tonawanda Coke in New York and drinking water in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,and Flint, Michigan. Segments of this video were integrated into a fall 2020 course for first-yearcivil engineering students, in relation to the assignments on ethics and
researched inengineering education. Numerous studies have revealed that engineering recognition is connectedto increased student retention and an engineering student’s developing sense of belonging (Cribbset al., 2016; Hatmaker, 2013; Rover, 2008; Wang & Hazari, 2018). Additionally, recognition isinvaluable because of its capability to demonstrate how students form relationships withinengineering, its ability to verify the other two components of engineering identity, competencyand performance, and its ability to shed light on the experiences of underrepresented andmarginalized students in STEM (Carlone & Johnson, 2007; Rodriquez et al., 2017; Rohde et al.,2019). This topic has been studied using various methodologies (Godwin, 2016

. Themajor difference between GD and the other engineering tools, such as Finite Element Analysis(FEA), is that GD optimizes the shape of the design solution based on the manufacturing processselected by the design engineer. So, the design and shape solution recommended by GD for five-axismachining will be different from a solution developed for the casting process. In order to use thepower of GD to the full extent, one specific area that requires more investigation is additivemanufacturing.Additive manufacturing (AM) is a manufacturing technology that produces parts and assemblies Proceedings of the 2022 ASEE Gulf-Southwest Annual Conference Prairie View A&M University, Prairie View, TX

In thepractice of civil and environmental engineering, where projects are designed and built for publicuse and benefit, engineers must be skilled at communicating with the array of diversestakeholders that will be affected by their work.
