While a predominantlynon-scientific higher management was unconvinced of the value and practical applications ofscience and technology, the demand for scientifically technically trained man-power wassmall and amply met by existing output” [5, p187].

discourse ondiversity, equity, and inclusion in engineering. Nonbinary and trans* students are rarely even thefocus of research centering on LGBTQ+ student experiences in larger fields such as STEMeducation and higher education studies. Their exclusion can be attributed, in part, to the lack ofdata collected in large national datasets [1], [2], [3]. For instance, the National ScienceFoundation (NSF) has received multiple open letters requesting that NSF collect nonbinary andtransgender identities in their Survey of Earned Doctorates and NSF Center for Science andEngineering Statistics surveys [4], [5], [6]. But the release of the 2024 Survey of EarnedDoctorates revealed they had not heeded these calls; it also omits sexual orientation altogether[7

By understanding how wecan constructively meet the emotional needs of engineering faculty, through reframing failureincidents and fostering social connection, we may establish cultures of psychological health thatpositively affect the well-being of faculty, staff, and students.Specifically, we aim to better understand the social and individual experiences of professionalshame in engineering faculty. We refer to professional shame as a painful emotion that occurswhen someone fails to meet cultural expectations in a professional setting [5]. We understandprofessionals shame to describe both an emotion internalized by faculty and cultural experiencesthat they help contribute to through their behavior in setting expectations for

Attendees included members of the NAE, engineering educators, industryrepresentatives, and public policy fellows. The goal of this workshop was to investigate thecareer paths of four-year engineering graduates and to delve into factors affecting the persistenceof engineering graduates in engineering and other technical fields. Presenters includedeconomists, sociologists, engineering recruiters, university and professional career counselors,and educational researchers.

the excerpt from Bok is often true at research-intensive engineering institutions.Perhaps even more critical than the delay to a student’s doctoral thesis completion, as identifiedby Bok, many faculty advisors view student-time spent teaching as directly conflicting withprogress on experimental testing, computational simulation, and technical publicationagreements with research sponsors. This perception of conflict is not unwarranted: faculty are atthe behest of governmental/private entities that can freeze further funding or request recompensefor previously distributed grants if project deliverables are not timely. A graduate student, orteam of students, is a significant driver in moving the research forward to meet these

Teams were then required to present their midterm progressin front of an audience of peers and instructors. These presentations were graded on a team basisfor time management, clarity, style, content, and organization.

Finally, each group was required to submit afinal report which was graded on presentation, grammar, and a heavy focus on technical content.In most groups, the grades for individual team members were very similar unless there was ateam member who was not

cultural norms are consistently reported as anantidote to the low participation of women in the engineering workforce [3] [4]. This studyinvestigates a potential mechanism for shifting engineering cultural norms with the integration ofempathy in engineering; this may also be a springboard for cultural change and the developmentof a critical mass of women in an engineering. This study employs a well-established informalengineering education program which has educated over 4000 young women over a continuous20-year period.

, multifaceted problems [3, 6].In STEM, systems thinking enables students to identify, understand, predict, and suggestimprovements of every aspect of an engineered (artificial) system, including the way theseaspects inter-relate within the system and with other natural or socio-technical systems [6, 9].Introducing systems thinking to STEM novices can be challenging, primarily due to limiteddisciplinary knowledge and lack of prior exposure to complex systems analysis. Thus, inprevious studies, IST constructs have been utilized to create structured assignments as mediumsfor teaching systems thinking in the initial learning of problem-solving [9-11]. The SAFOframework is one such construct, which, through its inclusion of ‘Outcome’ directs
students’ inherent drive to learn. However, not all extrinsicmotivation is counterproductive, and some extrinsic factors can be internalized such that theysupport student autonomy and improve learning outcomes. In application to educationalcontexts, studies have shown that supporting autonomy, competence, and relatedness leads togreater student engagement and improved learning outcomes [2].In this work, we interpret our results within the framework of SDT, inspired by a similar analysisin [8], with the goal of making our findings more applicable in practice to potentially increasestudent motivation to attend.Study Purpose and Research QuestionsThe purpose of this study was to investigate student motivation to attend class sessions, with

engineering students [1], [2], asthis new generation of engineers will need to solve multi-faceted, complex social, technical, andethical issues using interdisciplinary, collaborative, data-driven, and systematic approaches [3],[4].Background and Theoretical FrameworksTo solve these complex, ill-defined social problems, students must first learn the processes anddevelop frameworks for concepts and procedures behind solving well-defined technical problems[5]. One crucial component of problem-solving is metacognition, the process of reflecting onone’s own learning processes including planning, monitoring, and evaluating that learning [6],[7], [8]. Metacognition, commonly referred to as “thinking about thinking,” is essential forself-directed learning

usingpressure taps around the surface to measure lift [3, 4]. Alternative approaches mount the wing toone side of the wind tunnel [5] or mount the wing from its center and use a force balance to obtainmeasurements [1, 2]. These methods can all work well for rigid wings. However, in the case ofdeployable [6, 7] or morphing [8, 9] wings, pressure taps cannot be included and the wing mustbe mounted in a cantilever style to avoid constraining its degrees of freedom. Increased interest innovel morphing and deployable wing design [10] motivates the development of a wind tunnelforce balance that is versatile enough to measure a deployable wing, and accurate enough to allowfor comparative studies.We have developed a two component wind tunnel force balance
