We found that students from low SES backgrounds struggled more in calculus andearly aerospace classes, left the major at a higher rate, and had lower 6-year graduation ratescompared to students from high SES backgrounds.

This paper develops the terminology “undone ethics” through exploring theconcept of “undone science,” drawn from literatures of science and technology studies (STS).Undone science is defined as research that has been “left unfunded, incomplete, or generallyignored”[1],[2].

identity. For the purposes of thisstudy engineering identity is defined as set out by previous work by Stevens et al. [5] : anindividual’s belief that they ARE an engineer. As Stevens explains, this shift towards identifyingas an engineer is often accompanied by changes in disciplinary knowledge, and as a studentnavigates through the education process., For example, a student will likely have a strong senseof engineering identity when they feel that they are able to do tasks they associate with thoseperformed by a successful engineer, are identified as an engineer by their mentors, peers, andfamily, and have passed certain courses and graduated [6]. It should be noted that while this studyfocused on the engineering identity of mechanical
