We distributed the outreach questionnaire nationally to departmentchairs and deans at ABET-accredited engineering programs and engineering LGBTQorganizations. We aimed for over 100 responses to give us a diverse picture which isnot possible at a single institutional study.The themes that emerged from the outreach questionnaire informed the design ofthe follow-up personal interview schedules, which is a part of a feminist

It is distinct from the purely technological areasbecause of its strict system of logic. Due to this, and partly because of the large number ofconcepts and formulas that the students need to learn, MOS has been regarded as one of the mostdifficult undergraduate courses at Rutgers University. This can be validated by a two-tail t-testwith an α=.05 comparing the average D,W,F percentage spanning ten semesters for MOS at30.1% which was determined to be statistically significantly higher than any other courseofferings from the department with the next closest average

For example, the peer sharing presentations alone werelikely not the sole reason students felt comfortable discussing their personal challenges, but theyinstead acted as an indicator that many students viewed the learning strategies course as a safespace to disclose information about themselves.Based on the emergent themes, a key factor contributing to the effectiveness of the peer sharingpresentations were the post-presentation reflections.

The analysis aims to uncover the most common types of disciplinary incidents, underlying causes, and implications for the field in how engineering education addresses (or fails to address) these issues. Our findings identify recurring themes, analyze root causes, and offer recommendations for engineering educators and students to mitigate simi- lar incidents. This research has implications for informing curriculum development, professional development, and performance evaluation

Older chemicalengineering text-books are outdated because they rely on examples almost exclusively from thepetrochemical industry6. Focusing on a single field fails to inform students of the broad rangeof applications for chemical engineering principles6. Engineering instructors must thereforetake extra measures to prepare students for careers in modern-day industry and academia.Graduating engineers must have the skills to handle non-traditional problems and also be ableto address emerging areas of research and development.
