Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). Summer 2011 Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) Instruments and Plate Tectonics (ECE) Earthquakes from plate tectonic movements threaten many major cities in the United States and worldwide. Various research methodologies for plate movements and earthquakes have led to efforts to forecasting these catastrophic events. Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) instruments are an integral component in the study of Earth movements and earthquakes. This summer experience engaged students in the interdisciplinary study of earthquake forecasting.

focused on issues that mightdifferentially impact marginalized communities.These studies demonstrate that there is a need to help engineering students better understand andappreciate the impact that their work has on society and develop skills needed to provideeffective and equitable solutions. This need is evident in developments in the criteria foraccrediting engineering programs. In October 2022, the ABET Engineering Area Delegationapproved an optional two-year pilot criteria that incorporates principles of diversity, equity andinclusion (DEI). One of the elements of these changes is that the curriculum must include“content that ensures awareness of diversity, equity, and inclusion for professional practiceconsistent with the institution’s

Similarly, they can also help engineers to buildpersonal confidence.

In another study at Loyola University in Chicago, it was seenthat by including social justice topics across the engineering curriculum, retention rates ofminority engineering students increased [17]..Students who have been negatively affected orseen their community impacted by an engineering project, may feel left out and
