., accessibility, climate change, health/pandemic, racism). Undergraduate engineeringstudents, particularly women, people of color, and individuals with disabilities, are oftenmotivated by these sociotechnical challenges to pursue engineering. However, technical learningand social issues are frequently separated in current forms of undergraduate engineeringeducation, and engineering students may learn to devalue social aspects of engineering as aresult. Integrating social issues, such as issues of equity, diversity, inclusion, and justice, into anengineering education may privilege the experiential knowledge of a wider set of students andempower a new generation of engineers to address pressing sociotechnical issues. In this study,we synthesize examples

Although higher education has concerned itself with the dearth ofwomen in engineering disciplines, it has focused much of its attention on understanding theexperience of this population as opposed to generating practical solutions to address theirattrition out of these majors. We now have a robust understanding of the barriers women oftenface in engineering contexts, including gender bias that

However, they may not reveal the procedural workings of anorganization, and why these workings, alongside organizational culture and structure, areimportant to understand (see [1]). In addition, not everyone participates in engineeringinternships and co-ops at equal rates, with lower-income, first-generation students and Black,Latinx, Native, and Pacific Islander students less

This can affect their academic prospects, but perhaps more importantly it can builda negative perception of their capabilities in creating innovations and developing technicalsolutions.A first-semester engineering course, Introduction to Engineering, has been seen to have animpact in countering this perception in students at Ashesi University in Ghana [1] [2].

However, comprehensive andconsistent understanding of how to fully integrate these topics is unclear.We know that current efforts to enhance the focus and impact of diversity, equity, inclusion,belonging, and social justice (DEIB+SJ) supplemental support systems for students cannotcombat the overarching effects of society and systemic systems of oppression on those students[8].

) is due to the historical and demographic foundations that are not inclusive to womenand people of color that these fields were built upon. In their research, Lee et al. [1] andBlackwell et al. [2] both discuss how these factors continue to contribute to theunderrepresentation of women and people of color in the STEM industry. This is attributed to the“leaky pipeline” phenomenon where women lose interest in engineering as their careerprogresses due to continuous barriers such discrimination, inequitable resources andopportunities [2]. This further contributes to the loss of interest in STEM as young women andpeople of color achieve new milestones in their careers.

on differences in social esteem and respect [9], [14], [15]. Additionally, modernsociologists have grown from Weber’s original ideas by doing more rigorous analyses of theimpacts of gender and race/ethnicity on status [9]–[11], [14], [15].Following the idea of social status as a driver of inequality, Cecilia Ridgeway [9] identified threequalities of status beliefs: 1. Both individuals who are advantaged and disadvantaged by the status belief accept it as a matter of social reality, whether they like it or not. 2. Generalizations are formed about the worthiness and competence of whole categories of people. 3. A type of social reputation is formed for the more advantaged group as a “third order” belief, meaning they are

Alter was first used in 1985 General Social Survey [45] which was used toinquire about people’s social ties (e.g., alter 1 and alter 2). In the same vein, this study uses alterto indicate influential people that Asian woman identify as important for pursuing a civilengineering career. Contrary to the emphasis on the influences from alters, Navarro-Astor and colleagues[46] found in their systematic literature review on the persistence of women in the constructionindustry that women's social network is a relatively unexplored area.

Finally, Walker’s definitions have the approval of the terms’ originators, where a specificoriginator can be ascertained. For some terms, Walker herself was the originator: she was thefirst person to coin the term ‘neurodiversity paradigm’ and explicitly define its principles in [2],and she is also attributed with coining the term ‘neurominority.’ Other terms with originator-approved definitions include ‘neurodiversity,’ generally attributed to Judy Singer in 1998 (see [7,p. 9]), and the terms ‘neurodivergent’ and ‘neurodivergence’, coined by Kassiane Asasumasu in2000 [1, p. 48]. I present an abbreviated version of Walker’s definitions here as an
