the role of both civil engineer and architect. In 1818 the Institute of CivilEngineers appeared in Great Britain, and it was not until 1834 that the Royal Institute ofBritish Architects was formed in the same country. The creation of these twoinstitutions gave rise to different specializations in each profession. On the one hand,engineering and structural problems and, on the other hand, design and functionalspecifications [1]. This event initiated the creation of a gap between both constructionbranches that has been growing until today so that even though both professions sharesimilar design objectives the standards experienced are different [2], [3]. Nowadays, dueto technological advances and the growth of the demand for infrastructure

Engineering Excellence was created as an urgent response to a COVID-relatedsuspension of in-person learning and bridge programs, not effort to study a particular engineeringeducation research hypothesis. Meanwhile, several lessons were learned; • Creating a program that captures in-person type activities i.e., slides versus GoodNotes. • Using Zoom technology to streamline administrative tasks while the instructor focuses on creating an engaging class. This allowed enforcement of video engagement. • Simulating the homework, quiz, and test expectations of a credit course will elicit student behavior as if it were for credit. • Moving group work to the beginning of class and the addition of attendance points decreases the

As pointed out by recent reports,the increasing global competition is due to the aging of the current aerospace workforce and thefact that aerospace and

Recently a number of new technologies, developed in part by engineers,have emerged to help combat common trash problems. The Big Belly Solar trash compactorsystem is one of the technologies that have been widely implemented, including on our owncampus here at Virginia Tech. As with many new technologies, there is some controversy aboutwhether these types of trash cans should be adopted widely, with arguments on either side.

Implications and future researchdirections are discussed.IntroductionDespite efforts to bolster the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careerpipeline, the underrepresentation of historically marginalized groups such as women and Peopleof Color (POC) persists [1] - [3]. The continuation of the diversity deficit in STEM is concerningdue to the skill, vitality, and imagination that is sieved from the STEM professional field.Moreover, disproportionate persistence in STEM fields is not the result of a lack of interest ofunderrepresented student groups [4].
