Such efforts currentlyalign with internationally recognised frameworks including the Sphere Handbook, Charter andStandards, for short-term humanitarian response [4], the Sendai Framework, for disasterpreparedness [5], and the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),focusing on long-term development [6].This dedicated role for engineering began to be documented in the 1970’s, through work such asSmall is Beautiful [7], which captured concepts such as appropriate technology, and the

given women’s different rates of enrollment between, forexample, computer (11.3% women) and environmental (45.2% women) engineering.Outside of engineering, women tend to be overrepresented in communal or “helping” fields, suchas work perceived to be care-related in education (e.g. preschool teaching) and health care (e.g.nursing)13. The same process may be occurring within engineering itself. Disciplines such asBME and ENV are framed with a “concrete and explicit intention to help -- rather than simply toadvance knowledge or technology”14. While not necessarily more helpful than other disciplinesin actual outputs, these newer and interdisciplinary specializations are presented as being tieddirectly to health and environmental benefits that can

The value creation coverage included a basic introduction within an engineeringeconomics element, using supplemental cabling within a model bridge design project, and inassociation with investigating a novel/emerging energy-production technology. Fulcher’sCuriosity Index self-assessment survey was used to measure entering student disposition andCarpenter’s Entrepreneurship Mindset self-assessment was used to measure EM tendencies at theend of the course.

populations.Humanitarian Engineering is an area which aims to promote human welfare through the creation,invention and modification of appropriate technologies. One of the specific goals is to address needs ofpeople who have been largely ignored by the engineering community [12]. Over the last decade,humanitarian engineering programs and organizations have emerged in large numbers in the US.Additionally, humanitarian engineering programs typically tend to attract larger number of femalestudents than mainstream engineering programs. For example, a study at the Colorado School of minesfound that the percent of female engineering students who were participating in capstone projects that hada humanitarian aspect were significantly larger than those participating in

towards thecenter of the spectrum. Feedback from faculty, socialized in the mainstream engineering culture,favored the existence of the spectacle and the panopticon. In a classroom setting, the studentsinitially (for the first couple of weeks of the semester) expressed dislike of the group and circleseating arrangement or were indifferent to it. Towards the end of the semester, however, they(one cohort of 15 students with the longest exposure) had almost unanimous appreciation of it.This change in student opinions resulted from open discussions with the students about theexistence of power in the classroom and the philosophies of liberative pedagogies.

curriculum;beginning with Level 1 and working up to Level 4. Beginning instruction at the lower levels helpto develop student’s inquiry skills and their motivation and excitement for the learning methods[12]. However, in secondary education, the levels are implemented more discretely and the formatof class is highly dependent on the subject matter. Particularly, STEM disciplines (science,technology, math, and engineering) trend toward the use of Levels 1 thru 3 for their requiredundergraduate classes, with maybe the exception of a senior capstone class, while other disciplines(social science, language arts, and education) are suited to more prevalently utilize Level 4 [13].The effectiveness of IBL has been assessed at a range of institutions and for
