Even in current day UnitedStates, professions like structural engineering have fewer female and minority industry leadersthan those that are White Caucasian male [1], and the same follows for academics in this field.As a result, many faculty members have limited exposure to the notable published works,projects, and other contributions of under-represented individuals to share with students.Historically, entry to professions in the built environment have been riddled by barriers due togender, race, and class.

During class, students were given a briefexplanation of California’s Cap and Trade Policy. They then played a game to simulate the openmarket of allowances and see where emissions improvements were and were not made. Studentswere then asked what changes could be made to the game (and, by extension, to the Cap-and-Trade Policy) to encourage equity.The senior Capstone class experienced a broader inclusion of social justice in their classcurriculum. From the start of the quarter, students were told they would need to include a socialjustice analysis as part of their Capstone project report. This analysis was required to includemeans

Grounded in research on engineering identity, thisproject posited that an identity-based approach to engineering leadership may provide a moreefficacious way to develop leadership as part of engineering formation that integrates leadershipinto engineers’ professional identities. To explore this proposition, this project employed asequential, mixed-methods study resulting in development of a grounded theory of engineeringleadership for undergraduate engineering students.This paper shares an overview of the project’s path during the funded period and highlightsinitial findings of how engineering undergraduates define engineering leadership.
