Toincrease the interest of women and other underrepresented groups in engineering, the casestudies will feature women and minority professionals in video segments. The curriculum willalso promote active participation by all groups by including of a variety of hands-on and grouplearning activities. The effectiveness of the modules to increase technological literacy as definedby the ITEA and to increase the awareness of and interest in engineering careers will beinvestigated.

Some examples of such courses are listed here. At Northern Arizona University,students are introduced to current design software such as CAD, equation solvers, and spreadsheets. AtDrexel University, the course focuses on the design process and its applications in engineering through aseries of lectures and projects. There are also linkages to freshmen humanities courses. At the Universityof Wisconsin at Madison, students work in teams to determine customer needs, propose solutions, anddesign and test final products.The

Systems Intervention asserts that the traditional approach has been to focus on the functional whereas we need Linstone’s approach7 of focusing on technical, organizational, and procedural aspects, which act as filters through which systems are viewed.Such techniques as those named above will significantly broaden the education of engineers andmake them much better grounded and equipped to help solve complex problems.However, abstract theory is fine and a critical part of everyone’s on-going life-long educationabout why the world works the way it does.

For example, electrodeposition may be used for coating a substrate,corrosion may be a process design constraint, or electroanalytical chemistry may be used todetect a contaminant. On the other hand, the role of electrochemistry is often subtle, yetimportant. For example, cell membrane potentials are dictated by electrolytic processes,electrochromic smart window technology depends on ion conducting materials, charge transferreactions impact the efficacy of soil dewatering with electroosmosis, and more.

This isparticularly important because major attacks on critical IoT systems originate from vulnerabilitiesintroduced by human error (via social engineering, phishing emails, etc.), committed by engineersand other professionals who are not cybersecurity experts. Hence, effective cybersecurityeducation aimed at a broad audience of engineering students is crucial. One way to achieve this isto offer accessible cybersecurity courses that are open to students from different backgrounds,departments, and/or majors.

Informal learning experiences offerlow-stakes assessments and a greater variety of topics to explore (school curricula tends to focusnarrowly on math and literacy due to testing policies). They have also been shown to moredeeply engage participants, better encourage direct interaction with real-world phenomena, andbuild on prior knowledge and interests5.Designed to spark children’s interest, raise awareness about careers, and provide opportunities toengage in hands-on activities, informal engineering experiences range from single-exposureactivities like museum visits to
