given women’s different rates of enrollment between, forexample, computer (11.3% women) and environmental (45.2% women) engineering.Outside of engineering, women tend to be overrepresented in communal or “helping” fields, suchas work perceived to be care-related in education (e.g. preschool teaching) and health care (e.g.nursing)13. The same process may be occurring within engineering itself. Disciplines such asBME and ENV are framed with a “concrete and explicit intention to help -- rather than simply toadvance knowledge or technology”14. While not necessarily more helpful than other disciplinesin actual outputs, these newer and interdisciplinary specializations are presented as being tieddirectly to health and environmental benefits that can

Historically,African American and other communities of color have not had that same access to the pre-college STEM education as White communities. Yet, members of these communities of colorhave contributed to technological innovations and STEM achievements.Underrepresentation of minority communities in STEM fields is not an accurate representation ofthe contribution of these communities to the field of engineering. In fact, there is a history ofinnovation and engineering ingenuity and display of engineering attributes in the AfricanAmerican community [4]. The historical engineering contributions of African Americans provideevidence that in the Black community, there might be common knowledge or

communities-in-need typically focus on creating,implementing, and optimizing innovative technologies that can be universally applied to thedeveloping world. Many of the technological design assumptions are based upon the provider’svalues and cultural experience, and often disregard the conditions and context of the recipientcommunity. This mindset is exacerbated by the characteristic isolation that engineeringeducation maintains with regard to non-technical disciplines such as anthropology, communityhealth, and social development. A year-long course at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, currently in is third year and working with its third community, breaks theisolationism of engineering thinking by combining undergraduate and graduate

planning to start engineering at Loyola University Chicago (LUC), the new Director decidedto integrate social justice with engineering in the curriculum. This decision seemed a naturalextension of Jesuit universities’ emphasis on social justice. LUC’s BS Engineering Scienceprogram began the following year in August, 2015.BackgroundIn his 1968 survey for ASEE, Liberal Learning for the Engineer, Sterling Olmsted counted 93engineering schools that had initiated programs in liberal studies in the last three years. By 1973,as a result of this report, almost 200 technical colleges experimented with curricula to address thesocial implications of technology. Two curricular approaches included “humanizing”engineering through interdisciplinary education and

Over time this allows for a particularly strong sense of trust to be developedamong collaboratives, as expanded upon below. Curriculum formulation in support ofengineering education, to an ABET approved level, necessitates faculty professionaldevelopment for science, mathematics and technology instructors as well as the “rare”engineering instructor on staff at the TCU. These levels of interaction eventually strengthensindividual collaborations between academics in the program, which heightens concern for thestudents on either side of the transition process. Additional benefits also accrue to the TCUs byavoiding the most costly segment of engineering education

One of the specific goals is to address needs ofpeople who have been largely ignored by the engineering community [12]. Over the last decade,humanitarian engineering programs and organizations have emerged in large numbers in the US.Additionally, humanitarian engineering programs typically tend to attract larger number of femalestudents than mainstream engineering programs.

To address RQ3, twoadditional themes were included: experimental data and simulations. Representative quotes forthese four themes are given below: • Technological era: “Literally every engineering field needs some amount of coding or programming now.” • Efficiency: “An engineer can whip up a program to do something in ten minutes that would have taken 5 hours manually.” • Experimental Data: “This is a technological era, everything depends on programming to quickly and accurately process and analyze data.” • Simulations: “To model

In a classroom setting, the studentsinitially (for the first couple of weeks of the semester) expressed dislike of the group and circleseating arrangement or were indifferent to it. Towards the end of the semester, however, they(one cohort of 15 students with the longest exposure) had almost unanimous appreciation of it.This change in student opinions resulted from open discussions with the students about theexistence of power in the classroom and the philosophies of liberative pedagogies. An interestingcontrast can be drawn with the feedback from the Informational Technology staff
