Introduction A feasibility study of thorium as a nuclear fuel in molten salt reactors for Missouribecame a project for graduate students in engineering. This was a multifaceted assignmentwherein students had to research, present and co-write individual sections of a primer. Thisproject motivated students to work with industry, engineering, legal and economics terminology.The mulitdisciplinary aspect of the project was enriching to students who harbored differentbackgrounds and talents.

Dominant forms of engineering education today function toreinforce these interlocking logics and structures, exacerbating existing societal inequities bydistorting life-giving relationships to land, labor, and lives in ways that are incommensurablewith decolonial projects. Put another way: the long-standing societal inequities on whichEuroAmerican capitalism relies are sustained by engineering education as we know it.Within the United States, colleges and universities are the primary sites for the reproduction ofdominant engineering education. As such, engineering education researchers within colleges anduniversities exist at a critical junction capable of shifting dominant engineering education
