March2001.The curricula for this two-day course has been carefully designed to include the Design Section ofthe Technology Content Standard as published in the Standards for Technological Literacy: Contentfor the Study of Technology.3 The course provides an opportunity for students to develop anunderstanding of the attributes of design and engineering. In addition, students are also exposed tothe roles of troubleshooting, research and development, invention, innovation, and experiment inproblem solving.On the first day of the pre-college engineering course at KIT, each student was asked to design andbuild one model bridge individually using light and flexible timber material, which is known as balsawood. After completion, students applied loads

Experiencing Disability in Undergraduate Civil Engineering Education: An Initial Examination of the Intersection of Disability and Professional IdentitiesAbstractWhile recent calls throughout the engineering education community have focused on increasingdiversity and broadening participation in STEM, these conversations typically center on race andgender with little to no work addressing disability. But research in higher education broadlysuggests that cognitive, physical, and learning disabilities can markedly impact the ways inwhich students perceive and experience school, develop professional identities, and move intothe engineering workforce. To address this gap, we build on emerging conversations that explorethe
