Thus, although we draw onMagali Larson’s (1977) notion of “professional project” to document how and when engineeringeducators act to bolster their professional image, it is as important to this study that we alsoemploy a basic understanding of the distinct professional configuration of engineering, and howthis configuration shapes the profession’s educational reform practices. In this respect, the earlystudies of the engineering profession remain an important point of departure (Layton 1971;McMahon 1984; Sinclair 1980; Reynolds 1983; also Noble 1977

There is consensus among researchers that in the context of globalization the U.S.engineering programs either adapt their curricula to meet the expectations of the globalworkforce or take the risk of becoming irrelevant [1]. Irrelevance refers to the currentcurriculum

In this paper we seek to show why this is a problem,particularly for creating pathways to engineering for students of low socioeconomic status andstudents of color. As the Next Generation Science Standards come online, and as more and morestates adopt engineering standards for K-12 education, how can engineering education bedelivered as part of public education, involving teachers and unions fully in the process?
