The requirement for curriculums that includes the “application of engineeringmechanics, material science, and numerical methods relevant to civil engineering” is meant toallow each program the flexibility to deliver a subset of each topic deemed appropriate for theprogram’s objectives, whether by program faculty or others [8]. Other changes contain specificrequirements for mathematics, basic sciences, civil engineering technical areas, design content,experimentation, sustainability, and a series of other topics related to business, management,public policy, leadership, professional ethics, and licensure [19].

Despite the notable capacity of neurodivergent individuals to offer uniqueperspectives and innovative solutions in engineering domains, they continue to beunderrepresented in engineering programs [13-15].

The basis of the curriculum in other domains (likemedicine) has been on the heuristics and cognitive biases shown to impact decision makers.Therefore, research evidencing susceptibility to bias by domain experts seems a necessaryprecursor to the development of the curriculum. In the next section we walk through a literaturereview that establishes how civil engineers are vulnerable to biases, in this case
