On average, 60% ofstudents entering this university are first generation college students. The school is an entrancepoint for those who have not previously considered higher education. In a high technology area,there are both job opportunities and a culture of engineering innovation. Given these realities,the College of Engineering sees itself as the vanguard of attracting underrepresented students forits region.2.

. Bothframing and solution-generation processes require consideration of the needs of end users.Second, taking an ethical position requires engineers to consider their role in solving a societalissue; technical expertise is necessary, but not sufficient to meet many of these challenges.Rather than viewing the engineer as a “savior” to the developing world due to their technicalexpertise, a focus on ethical commitments of empathy require the engineer to contextualizetechnical innovations in context7,24,25. Viewing the developing world solely through the eyes of atechnical challenge often ignores the societal framework and other considerations (e.g., climate,availability of resources) that may disallow Western advances in technology to be applied in

This study also reasonedthat those who persist possess an ability to adapt and thrive “despite working in a male-dominated culture characterized by difficulties associated with the workplace, includingdiscrimination”.
