The culture of “Engineering with Engineers” isbeing built through the interactions of students, faculty, and industry, through participation inengineering-related activities, and through reinforcement of shared similarities. We are studyinghow this new culture affects the identities of students and faculty, and how these enrichedidentities affect students’ engagement in and commitment to engineering.Project DescriptionCreating this new culture of “Engineering with Engineers” requires change in two ways.

LGBTQ+ Advocacy in STEM: Impact Stories from Community of PracticeIntroductionIt is well established that there is a critical need to diversify the STEM workforce to remaincompetitive in a global economy. Recognizing the need to attract and retain the most talentedindividuals to STEM professions, the National Academies advocate that diversity in STEM mustbe a national priority [1]. Furthermore, research suggests that improving diversity in a workforcehas positive effects on innovation and productivity.One of the key reasons that students cite for leaving STEM is the perception of an unwelcomingclimate, especially by those who are members of underrepresented groups [2].

Achieving these goals requires “a broadeducation that incorporates a range of technical and social science and humanities knowledge,”“an appreciation for other cultures,” and “more ethical treatment of those who are different.”It is now becoming more widely acknowledged that engineering decisions require a sense ofsocial justice, fairness, and equality from a global perspective [18] [20] [21].

They implemented five key principles to improvewriting: collaboration with practitioners, empirical analysis of writing, a functional perspectiveon language, direct instruction, and integration into existing courses. The approach wasconsidered innovative as it integrates the expertise of engineering practitioners, engineeringfaculty, and writing specialists, and it is empirically grounded in the analysis of a large collectionof practitioner and student writing.Writing guides for students have been actively developed in many engineering programs.
