The plots showthat the capstone design project choices have been slightly skewed to aeronautics in recent years.There was a larger disparity in the earlier years, but students have picked up interests in theastronautics field lately. This could be due to the commercialization of Space and theestablishment of the United States Space Force.

Faculty to Promote Inclusive Department ClimateAbstractDepartmental climate is a critical variable for the success of women and other underrepresentedengineers. Recruitment, retention, and promotion strategies have generally focused onindividuals, instead of group-level processes. We designed a process called Dialogues toemphasize inclusive and participatory departmental interactions by intentionally structuringiterative conversations and activities. Our approach builds on the strengths of engineeringculture, such as teamwork and problem solving, to transform group dynamics and mobilizedepartments toward gender equity.Rationale for the work and contribution to research in engineering educationEngineering is a challenging place for faculty

Interviews were conducted in two phases,with two different sets of interview questions, both designed to elicit descriptions of engineeringexperiences in college and in the workforce from a diverse pool of graduates with undergraduatedegrees in engineering or computer science. Coding and analyzing data from two differentprotocols was expected to reduce any bias introduced in either set of interview questions towardidentifying or describing certain types of negative environments in the workforce over

The study also examined the factors of support within the institution, withan emphasis on understanding the effectiveness of various programs and policies (i.e. family-friendly policies, mentoring programs, faculty diversity initiatives) designed to support womenfaculty in engineering.Background on the Problem Compared to their male peers in academic engineering programs, the female faculty isless likely to reach full professorships (Easterly and Ricard, 2011; Touchton, 2008). Rather,women are concentrated at the lower ranks of academia as assistant professors, lecturers andadjunct faculty (Fox, 2010). In 2006, women accounted for 30.5% of non-tenure track instructors,  but only 11.9% of associate professors and 3.8% of full

Engineers occupy a critical role in broadening an understanding of the built,sociotechnical world while developing, designing, and constructing systems that are rooted indominant society and dominant societal values. While engineering research shares manyepistemic and methodological characteristics with traditional scientific fields, engineeringresearch differs from pure, scientific research by applying scientific solutions for global,economic, environmental, and societal needs. These values are made salient in engineeringresearch, as they both limit and invoke the work the community is motivated to research, as wellas what work is valued, promoted, and funded.

LASSI and LTM are designed to help students understand and identify the ways they learn.The surveys questions that the students answered throughout the semester were focused on howthey were learning, access to faculty and academic services, and changes during the firstsemester.One of the key premises of this project is that making them effective learners within the collegeenvironment, which is very different to what they are used to, may reduce the 57% attrition rateof freshman engineering students. Studies have shown that failing engineering freshman don’thave lower academic abilities; in fact, some of them have higher IQ’s than the averageengineering student.1 Other studies demonstrate that traditional lecture oriented teaching leads tolower
