American students have not seen commensurate increases in engineering fields.Diversifying the undergraduate engineering population has important consequences for ournation’s ability to meet the increasing demands for a larger technological and scientific laborforce. While diversifying engineering in the aggregate is both timely and critical, it is equallyimportant to consider the level of diversity within each engineering discipline (e.g., Mechanical,Civil, Electrical, Chemical). When engineering disciplines are disaggregated, it is clear that somedisciplines are less diverse than others. Focusing on diversity at the discipline level has importantimplications for the design of effective department level programs and curricular interventions

This need is reflected in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics(STEM) occupation growth which has increased 79% since 1990 and is projected to grow by10.8 percent by 2031 [1].

Lapachelle and Cunningham [5] point to the flexibility of theengineering design process as a possible nonlinear, open-ended learning cycle that may berevisited to rethink, discuss, and formulate new solutions, a quality shared by both the studiohabits of mind and Positive Technological Development. While these skills are learned through apractice and immersion in processes which are often subject-centered these behaviors andpractices hold greater potential for the individual learner than the subject learning alone.
