Payne in his report for the U.S. President’s Committee on Scientists and Engineers (exhibit3, item 8). Only one item in this list includes the term engineering in its title, and it was not an officialdocument (item 10). It was an international document and is included because in it theengineering associations from Western Europe and the United States defined the terms“technologist” and “technician”.Throughout the period 1950 to 1970 The Government appointed Councils to advise it onScientific Policy.

Ethics functionsas a guiding principle for reasoning, decision making, and problem solving, all of which aredeeply integrated into both the internal conceptualization of critical thinking by our participantsand accepted definitions of critical thinking. The institutional context of this study likely plays arole in this as currently no explicit ethics course exists in any engineering program. Leadership atTexas A&M University in the college of engineering has instead mandated that ethics beintegrated into every course in engineering, although enforcing that mandate is highlychallenging in practice and nearly impossible logistically.RecommendationsThis study highlights the critical

majoruniversities are lower: 20% at Ohio State,3 27% at UT Austin,4 24% at NYU,5 26% at UCBerkeley,6 and 28% at Georgia Tech.7 It is suspected that the low enrollment numbers are aresult of social issues and curricular policies. While social change is outside the scope of highereducation faculty control, curriculum changes can be used to encourage women as well as retainthem in engineering programs.There is evidence that certain curriculum practices are more enticing to women and motivatethem to stay in engineering. Strategies to attract women to engineering have included teamwork,service projects, and social impacts of engineering projects. These strategies reflect the higherpercent of degrees awarded to women in areas like environmental and biomedical

agency instructors andstudents feel they have to make inputs about the course and “external framing has a stronginfluence over how much control the instructor can yield to students (i.e. the internal framing)”[29, p. 3].In our study, factors contributing to the external framing would include the aspects related to thecoordinated nature of the course, such as common content, homework, and exams. Hagman et al.claim that “student perceptions of agency in the classroom are likely less based on externalframing; their perception of having the most agency in the classroom will likely occur with weakinternal framing, regardless if this is coupled with strong or weak external framing as they areoften unaware of external factors” [29, pg. 3].
