American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Pilot study: Impact of Social Consciousness on Engineering Design Decision MakingAbstractOne of the tasks of engineering design education is to ensure that students have a strongunderstanding of their customers and environments. They must understand the context of theirdecision-making and how it affects people in diverse communities. This requires students to seehow a design may be biased toward or against a particular population and to develop sensitivityabout issues of race, gender, religion, nationality, age, physical ability, and

In sum, these methods provided the opportunity to associate and compare the different definitions of success (e.g. graduating with a degree, Kate and Dan’s experiences, and engineering identity scores) with Kate and Dan’s experiences. First, the pilot student’s demographics are presented. Second, Kate and Dan’s grit and engineering identity scores (quantitative measures) are presented. Third, ‘other’ senior engineering students’ engineering identity scores reported in a cross-sectional study are described [15]. Fourth, Kate and Dan’s quantitative and qualitative measures are compared for the convergent and divergent themes. Last, the ways success is understood and seen by Dan and Kate

social sciences can and will directly impact their lives, bothas an engineering professional and in the ‘pure’ engineering design work.The last pillar of disengagement is the ideology of meritocracy. Meritocracy is “the belief thatsocial advancement structures in the United States are fair and just“ [11]. While several studieshave documented the impact of implicit bias contributing to a structural environment that is notfair or just, if engineering students are presented with these studies straight forth, the conflictbetween the structural impact of bias and engineering culture’s meritocracy can lead students toreject the studies based on identity-protective cognition [3]. Identity-protective cognition is whenan individual selectively interprets

As aresult, we integrated these components of campus culture into our understanding of institutionalclimate to ground our data collection approach and provide a helpful framework for uncoveringways in which institutional climate can impact how a Black HBCU undergraduate engineering orcomputing student navigates their post-graduate planning and decision-making.Identity and SuccessUnderstanding how an institution’s culture and climate support students’ personal identities is

Initial results for the small first-year cohort werevery positive: 89% transfer rate and all students who transferred to UIUC graduated.

situated in the Engineering for US All (e4usa): A National Pilot Programfor High School Engineering Course and Database program, a new pre-college engineeringinitiative funded in 2018 by the National Science Foundation. The program aims to demystifyengineering for all high school students as an avenue to engineering literacy and a means ofenhancing potential engineering pathways [17]. The e4usa course was intentionally designed tobe inclusive by providing engineering design experiences relating to student fields of interest inlocal and global contexts. The course objectives are broken down into four major threads andwoven through seven units. The four threads include: a) discovery of the discipline ofengineering and engineering identity, b
