Byembracing DEI, the engineering discipline is better positioned to tackle the grand challenges ofour time, from climate change to equitable access to technology, with solutions that are as variedand complex as the issues themselves [14], [15]. In essence, the integration of DEI into theengineering discipline enhances the field's ability to generate transformative solutions that areequitable, sustainable, and reflective of the needs of all segments of society. It is not just an idealto aspire to but a practical necessity for the continued relevance and progress of the engineeringprofession.Chemical Engineering, like many engineering fields, grapples with the underrepresentation

findings demonstrate that our approach shows promise forachieving these objectives through the implemented coursework.IntroductionThe engineering profession has always aimed to serve society’s needs. However, in some cases,engineering designs and products benefit some at the detriment of other groups [1], [2]. Withjustice issues affecting millions around the world, many engineering programs have startedintroducing modules and themes in their curriculum to educate students on such injustices andoffer approaches to help them address these issues. The environmental engineering discipline isuniquely positioned to recognize environmental injustice, understand its adverse health andeconomic outcomes, and advance ethical approaches and solutions to

Outside of the classroom, anascent student club (the Intercollegiate Futures Society) cultivates the hobbyist ethos with handson work with a Rep-Rap Mendel, (the aforementioned open source 3-D printer).

As a template, the framework should accommodate a variety of paths through the design process but also support a particular path should the instructor specify one.  Being extendable to include other context themes such as cultural, societal, environmental, sustainable, and ethical.

These courses may include some combination ofcomputer programming, computer aided design, economics, ethics, and/or overview of discipli-nary topics. These courses are typically offered in larger student cohorts and are more easilyscaled than project based courses.

Theauthors reported that students did not appear to watch the videos unless assigned to do so. Acomputer science course documented by Hsin and Cigas [6] used short videos and reported apositive impact in that students were more satisfied with the course, were less likely to withdraw,and were more likely to pass the course. Itani [3] examined survey results for 92 students andconcluded that videos were a beneficial tool for learning engineering ethics.
