to reduce the weight and increase the efficiency of a weld gun for General Motors.Mr. Christian Tiong-Smith, Loyola Marymount University Christian Tiong-Smith is an undergraduate student at Loyola Marymount University (LMU), majoring in Mechanical Engineering. He is passionate about increasing STEM persistence for underrepresented minority students in order to promote a culture of inclusion and to diversify thinking within STEM fields. He is currently involved in restarting LMU’s National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) chapter, as well as in his senior capstone project that looks to take a creative approach towards traditional ASME challenges by constructing autonomous robots with particular objectives

Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Florida Polytechnic University (Florida Poly). He joined the University in 2016 after spending 6-years as an Assistant Professor of Mechanical En- gineering at the University of Louisville (UofL). Bohm’s research examines the intersection of 3 distinct areas, engineering design, engineering education, and big data. Currently, Bohm has an active NSF grant under the Division of Undergraduate Education to examine the effects of systems modeling paradigms with respect to design outcomes and systems thinking and understanding. While at UofL, Bohm was primarily responsible for overseeing the Mechanical Engineering Department’s capstone design program. Prior to his position at UofL, Bohm

directly from page 9. This short introductory video to creativity included a quick activity to encourage them to think outside the box. III. Team construction | As part of the class, students were grouped for their team projects in groups of 2-5. While all data for this study was collected on an individual basis, students were instructed to dissect different products than their teammates. IV. Concept Introduction | Students were introduced to the inventive concept they would be brainstorming and discussing with their teammates. For the graduate students, they would be discussing the design of a novel alarm clock for those that have a difficult time waking up

Writingabout cognitive processes and situational awareness related to aviation human factors, Endsley’sdefinition of situational awareness in aviation operating environments provided a foundation tocontext-driven awareness: “The perception of the information in the environment within avolume of time and space, the comprehension of their meaning and the projection of their statusin the near future

she conducted research in transportation and sustainability as part of the Infrastruc- ture Research Group (IRG). In addition to the Ph.D. in Civil Engineering, Dr. Barrella holds a Master of City and Regional Planning (Transportation) from Georgia Institute of Technology and a B.S. in Civil En- gineering from Bucknell University. Dr. Barrella has investigated best practices in engineering education since 2003 (at Bucknell University) and began collaborating on sustainable engineering design research while at Georgia Tech. Prior to joining the WFU faculty, she led the junior capstone design sequence at James Madison University, was the inaugural director of the NAE Grand Challenges Program at JMU, and developed

schools, are responding to theseserious issues with training, task forces, student groups, counseling services, and concertedattempts to shift the culture towards openness and accountability [30]. Further, there areprograms that actually center social justice, community engagement, and humility regardingprivilege and power are growing. Some examples include the Colorado School of Mines, MercerUniversity, Oregon State University, and Villanova University [31]–[34]. These not onlydemonstrate care for people and the environment impacted by engineering projects, but alsoencourages students to care for each other.An Ethic of Care may provide a framework through which engineering faculty and staff atuniversities can improve their cultures to be more

Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering, and the Troost Institute for Leadership Education in Engineering (ILead). She completed her PhD at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) studying product development decision-making during complex industry projects. Dr. Olechowski completed her BSc (Engineering) at Queen’s University and her MS at MIT, both in Mechanical Engineering. Dr. Olechowski and her research group Ready Lab study the processes and tools that teams of engineers use in industry as they design innovative new products. c American Society for Engineering Education, 2020
