Survey administration offers advantages of largersample sizes and statistical analysis to potentially identify trends within the data, but presents adrawback in the lack of depth afforded by standardized questions. Interviews, on the other hand,provide rich data sets that give insight into the views, meanings, and experiences of engineeringstudents beyond what a survey alone can capture. These methods, both quantitative andqualitative, were used in conjunction with one another to support and strengthen the findings ofeach result set through

Committee created by the LiaisonCommittee that included O‟Brien, Holy and Semans asked each institution to compile a list ofthe “distinguishing characteristics” of their existing programs, as based on an assessment of theprogram‟s objectives, instructional emphasis, faculty, facilities, admissions requirements,graduation requirements, and accreditation status. Holy and Semans then compiled a side-by-sidecomparison of the state college and University of California‟s engineering degree programs.Noting significant differences in the stated characteristics (and thus confirming the Termancommittee‟s more general assessment), Holy and Semans recommended that the Board ofEducation take specific measures to ensure that such differences were sustained

For this professional Doctor of Engineering degree, therequirement of a comprehensive examination is satisfied by the successful completion of the writtenreport, oral presentation and defense. As is the case for all research-based advanced degree programs(e.g., the PhD with thesis), the level of effort expended by the engineer to successfully complete theproject requirement may substantially exceed the amount of time and effort implied by the

be difficult to prove, we assert that the majority of feminism’spresence in Engineering Education is not well-aligned with intersectional feminism or Blackfeminism. This notion is supported by the finding that of papers in the American Society forEngineering Education’s (ASEE) repository between 2011 and 2020 that mention the work“intersectionality”, only four of the Black feminist theorists foundational to the establishment ofthe term are mentioned [19]. Moreover, in an analysis of papers in three major EngineeringEducation journals across 14 years, Beddoes and Borrego [12] identified eighty-eight articlesthat mention feminist theory and assessed the articles within five branches of feminist theory.The authors found that a majority fell
