pathways”. As a resultof the Delphi study, these five primary barriers and needs emerged related to improving anddiversifying pathways of engineering students as follows. A. Study the root causes of why engineering remains a primarily white, male field, identify institutions that have successfully broken the stereotype, and determine how they did it. B. Identify and study those engineering schools and programs that have made substantial progress in increasing under-represented student populations, and determine their best practices. C. Initiate and synthesize engineering education research focused on the "neglected" cohorts (e.g., LGBTQA, disabled, low income). D. Determine why some engineering fields are
gaining an appreciation of aesthetics.Thus there appears to be ample evidence of initiatives introducing engineering students to artisticconcepts (Enduring Design), having engineers contribute to the development of objects of art(Technology Art Studio), and engaging engineers as performers (the sonic objects described byCarnegie et al). These initiatives, however, do not appear to engage engineers as artists.Introducing the Leonardo ProjectThe circumstances in play in the EE Department in the fall of 2015 were these: (a) a replacementfor Design Methodology was imperative; (b) Flaubert’s detailed notes and frameworks fromMadame Bovary provided a hitherto-unappreciated perspective on the design process in the arts;(c) a review of literature pointed

The students presented findings about theiroriginal collections: Who or what was the collection about? When were these items created? Forwhat purpose or for whom were these items created? As a group, they were asked to discusswhat each collection might have to say about science or engineering during its time of creation.They were also asked to think about what information was missing from the collections, whichwould have helped them to better understand the

getting crushed, it is best to place it very close to the edge of the smaller star.15. Drill holes into the points of the plastic stars and cut these same holes in the larger foam star so that everything is aligned.16. On each point of the star: a. Push a bolt through the top plastic layer and then screw a nut into place on the bottom side of it, applying Loctite to keep the nut from moving. This will keep the points of the stars from collapsing. b. Push the bolt through the rest of the layers and screw a second nut on the bottom, sealing it with Loctite.17. Attach a material to the bottom of the star that will help it grip to the floor.18. Repeat this process for however many stars you would like to
