four engineering-intensive organizations, asking them to identify 3-4 senior engineers with a range of career pathswho had graduated prior to 1992. We also asked them to be mindful of demographic diversitywhere possible. The four organizations represented the following industries: Chemicalprocessing, manufacturing, consulting/mining, and software. To ensure the inclusion ofengineers who had followed less traditional paths, we also reached out to senior engineersemployed in public service, finance, university leadership and social impact enterprises. In theend, 28 senior engineers consented to participate. Despite our intention to diversify our sample

Allen’s reading practices seem to match hisview of the purpose of reading: to gain information. Students were engaged in makingmeaning from the texts and they practiced strategies to improve comprehension andunderstanding. In these two units, students did not use the information they read and were notasked to read with an engineering purpose in mind such as identifying the problem.Allen’s texts seemed informational in nature. In one unit, students were asked to design andtest a model airplane. Students learned many new vocabulary words such as aerospaceengineer, tapered leading edge, and straight trailing

There hasbeen some previous research investigating relationships between demographic variables andengineering fields, but leaves out the student perspectives and expectations in choosing a major[11]. With this in mind, we focus on engineering specifically with our data from students in firstyear engineering coursework analyzing their expectations by reading the response data fromsurveys.A large portion of previously conducted major selection research comes from the perspective oftrying to introduce more people into STEM fields.

Through these personal andoften uncomfortable conversations about diversity, participants revealed that having anopportunity to talk candidly about diversity may be a catalyst to shifting attitudes about diversity[15].

Indeed,in terms of cross-cultural ideological patterns [19], east-west differences in foundation [20], andgender differences [21], the moral foundations questionnaire (and the moral foundations theoryon which it was built), was shown to have practical application.The described purpose of the original publicly-available moral foundations questionnaire was to“understand the way our ‘moral minds’ work” answering questions like “why do people disagreeso passionately about what is right?” and “why, in particular, is there such hostility andincomprehension between members of different political parties?” [22].

, many ‘traditional’ engineering students will enter careers where their work intersectswith military interests. Lucena describes how engineering education has consistently beeninfluenced by the defense needs of the United States since World War II [29]. Students mayactively seek military-related jobs, or more likely, will find themselves in them. A recentNational Academy of Engineering (NAE) report analyzed STEM workforce concerns of the U.S.Department of Defense (DOD), in terms of the ‘defense industrial base’ and DOD civilian andmilitary employees [30]. Many new technologies are developed with military funding orpotential military applications in mind, as acknowledged in a recent NAE report [31].Military issues in relation to engineering have
