Page 24.247.3IntroductionIn spite of targeted efforts to expand diversity in the engineering workforce, only marginalimprovements have been made in diversifying engineering education. Today, the majority ofstudents who enroll and graduate with a bachelor’s degree in engineering are white males 1,2. Tomeet the quantity and quality of engineers the nation needs, educators will need to do two things.First, they must “tap all talent” (p.16) 3 — attract a broad group of individuals who are presentlyunder-represented in engineering.
