pathways, which due tosystemic racism also have historically privileged those communities with access to the resourcesto support early STEM exposure and learning (Calabrese Barton & Tan, 2018). Other similaritiesbetween STEM and sports include the shared emphasis on skill development, hours of individualpractice to achieve mastery, failure, observing and correcting performance issues, andperseverance to meet goals (Pallis & McNitt-Gray, 2013). Throughout history, women of color—including many influential African Americanwomen—have defied racial and gender inequalities to succeed in STEM.

It is then apparent that ethics training that omitsconsideration of the social and ethical effects of science and technology on broader society isproblematically incomplete.4 As the NAE has helpfully highlighted recently, an expanded perspective has begun totake shape in many innovative undergraduate engineering ethics courses.5 Yet – perhaps due tothe lack of accreditation and the diversity of degree programs – few such broadening effortsseem to be found in graduate ethics training. Those that do exist tend to focus on particular setsof issues in specific disciplines (for example, issues of privacy in computer security), which arelaudable but not widely transferable

In this case, we focus on the culturalcontext in which the identity develops, namely the MSI campus.Researchers have conducted studies on identity development of engineering students,specifically. They found that three factors influence the development of an engineering identity,(1) how engineering is understood as a science, (2) the rules that govern the behavior of anengineer, and (3) the environmental setting of the institution in which one learns to become anengineer28, 29. It is this latter factor that we have examined in this study. Taken together, theimportance of studying the development of an
