These institutions offer affordable tuition,flexible scheduling, and a supportive learning environment, making STEM education moreattainable for many individuals who may not have access to traditional four-year universities.Additionally, community colleges often collaborate with local industries to develop specializedprograms tailored to the needs of the regional workforce, ensuring that students graduate withrelevant skills and knowledge.

Engineering Change: Systems Thinking as an Engineering Leadership SkillIntroductionAs engineering leadership educators, we must constantly ask ourselves what skills, attitudes andperspectives students need to gain from our programs. If leadership is “a process whereby anindividual influences a group of individuals to achieve a common goal” [1], we have aresponsibility to equip students with the skills not only to influence others, but also to identifythe goal; in engineering terms, to define the problem to be solved by understanding context,scoping the problem effectively, and consulting with stakeholders.The problems that we face as a society are becoming more open, complex, dynamic, andnetworked: they cannot be solved by individual people in siloed

This rise in qualitative and quantitative work exploring identity indicates the many waysin which it is defined.
