Students who successfully navigate their way to a secureengineer identity, however, are able engage positively in their programs and redefine engineeringto be more innovative and inclusive, thereby driving the field forward.Implications for Understanding and Practice – The findings reported here support the need foridentity support in engineering Ph.D. programs. This includes the acknowledgement of students’diverse backgrounds and approaches, but more than that, it emphasizes the need for activereconstruction and processing of what ‘engineer identity’ means, both at the individual level (asmanifested in students’ work) and at the social level (as manifested in belonging

narratives, researched and written by students, reveal that the fate of technology, thetechnology we train our students to design, build, and operate, is necessarily linked to the humancondition. This is clearly true of not only the engineered systems of the past and present, butalso the emerging technologies of the future. From nanotechnology to drones, the Internet ofThings, robotics, deep sea oil, hydraulic fractioning (fracking), and artificial near-intelligence,there may not be a more critical time in human history to focus on how and what we teach ourengineers and scientists. In the words of E.O. Wilson: “The problem … is that we have stone-ageemotions, medieval institutions, and god-like technology.” 12 Harnessing innovation within

U.S., RRP programs often focus on indigenous (especiallyNative American Indians), African-American, Hispanic, and female students. In engineeringeducation in New Zealand, Māori and Pasifika ethnicities and female students areunderrepresented compared to their representative proportions of the New Zealand population,but that paucity of Māori students is inconsistent with historic associations with engineering.A case in point is the Ruapekapeka Pa site, acknowledged in New Zealand by the engineeringprofession as an outstanding engineering structure that has been recognized in a nationalregister.9 The engineering innovation employed by Māori, while resisting the colonial forces inthe New Zealand land wars, was a local response to a military

from most discussions of the future of the United States’ technical workforce,however, is the role that engineering technology (ET) education plays or should play insupporting the nation’s technical infrastructure and capacity for innovation. This omission isworrisome because the number of people with this type of education, while smaller than forengineering, is nevertheless substantial. Relatively little is known, for example, about the extentto which the supply of those with 2- and 4-year ET degrees does—or does not—meet the needsof employers; what type of work those with such degrees perform; and the nature andsignificance of the differences between the knowledge, skills, and dispositions of those with ETdegrees and those with engineering
