Citing the recurring fragmentation trend within ECE (e.g.,as technology evolved in society, electrical and computer engineers’ expertise becameincreasingly specialized into siloed sub-fields with little overlap), Jesiek and Jamieson shed lighton recurring issues pertaining to both (1) professional formation and (2) diversity and inclusionin ECE. That is, as a field, ECE promotes “negative stereotypes and masculine cultural dynamicsin…both school and workplace settings” [13, p

It employs a method that iscentered around humans and adaptable, aimed at addressing challenging andmultifaceted issues.
