We selected mechanicalengineering for three key reasons: 1) the relative size of the department (approximately 1200students); 2) the focus on creative product design and; 3) access to the student population throughdepartmental listservs. First, the mechanical engineering department is the largest engineeringdepartment on campus, and so it offered the greatest potential to stratify student samples accordingto relevant demographic
