DUE.Prof. Oscar Marcelo Suarez, University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez Campus Professor Oscar M. Suarez joined the University of Puerto Rico - Mayag¨uez in 2000. A Fellow of ASM International, he is the Coordinator of the Materials Science and Engineering graduate program, the first of its kind in Puerto Rico. He is also the director of the university’s Nanotechnology Center Phase II, which is supported by the National Science Foundation. Currently, his work focuses on aluminum alloys and concrete modified with nanoparticles in addition to biocomposites for biocidal applications. Important components of his interests are education and outreach to underrepresented minorities.Dr. Aidsa I. Santiago-Rom´an, University of Puerto

currently ABET-accredited.It should be noted that no attempt was made to define “history of engineering and technology”for the respondents. The introduction to the questionnaire places the survey in the context of theABET social impact requirement. ABET itself defines its scope as “applied science, computing,engineering, and engineering technology3. The authors believe that to be effective any course inthis field, even if viewed as a “service” course for the engineering profession, must be taughtfrom the historians’ perspective. Such an approach will mean engaging the students inhistoriography of technology and broader issues such as the definition of chronology itself. Thepurpose of this survey was not, however, to engage the engineering educators

Our review of the literature on theexperiences of international graduate students found that prior work has primarily focused onunderstanding their sense of belonging and acclimation to higher education settings in the UnitedStates. And yet, their teaching motivation and identity as international graduate students havebeen underexplored.

In this pilot study, weaimed to explore how international engineering graduate students understand and express theirgender identity. Our exploratory results suggest that international graduate students inengineering had limited experience in using gender pronouns before moving to the U.S., andtheir usage of gender pronouns changed after the first year of transition.References[1] Institute of International Education, “International students-the Open Doors® data portal for international students,” Available
