professional responsibility among engineering graduates, while a variety of otherinterventions (e.g., service learning programs) have been developed to more broadly challengeengineering students to see themselves as socially engaged citizens and professionals.Nonetheless, there has been a surprising lack of research on development of social and ethicalresponsibility among undergraduate engineering students. Few studies have systematicallyexamined levels of ethical knowledge, decision-making capabilities, and commitments to socialresponsibility among large numbers of engineering students, much less examined how suchindicators change over time and are impacted (or not) by specific kinds of learning experiences.As a result, faculty, administrators, and

alignment of academia with women and industry with men stems from both personalimpressions of the field and from women professors’ observations of their own students. Womenin our sample noticed that female students tend to, for the most part, choose academia aftercompleting their engineering degrees whereas men choose industry. Academia as a “femalespace” is encouraged by graduate advisors or general societal impressions of both what is bestfor women’s and what is best for men’s interests: “…The technical things. Men like more do the technical things compared to the academician they don’t really like to teach someone…but they [men] like to do practical, do hands-on, the industry…” - Tutor, Chemical Engineering, 9 Years5.2.3
