, disability is stigmatized, and open discussions ofneurodivergence and disability are less prevalent, leading to an inability to understand howindividuals with ADHD navigate engineering ecosystems. We have two main objectives in thispaper: 1) critically analyze framings of ADHD and disability in engineering, and 2) create anddisseminate qualitative elicitation questions to create counterstories from individuals withADHD. This work forms part of a larger project to answer the following research question: Canwe reconceptualize ADHD in engineering beyond deficit frameworks through criticalmethods that uncover and question hegemonic discourses and the power those discourseshave?

Learning and Adopting Principles of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice through the Development of a Sustainability Mindset Among First Year Engineering StudentsAbstract. Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) are important elements of a sustainability mindset. As partof an initiative to develop a new program in Sustainability Engineering at the University of Puerto Rico, Mayagüez,and to evaluate the growth of a sustainability mindset among participants, we performed a qualitative analysis ofresults from a cohort of first year students (5 men, 2 women) who completed a 1-credit JEDI seminar as part of theirenrollment in the program.

The program features two initiatives: the established AirQuality Inquiry (AQIQ) program, which deploys pods that measure pollutants in the air, and thenewer Soil Quality Inquiry (SQIQ) program, which deploys pods that measure soil quality. In ourstudy, 185 posters from both AQIQ and SQIQ initiatives were analyzed using a coding rubric toassess the balance between scientific inquiry and engineering design and createrecommendations for

Full Paper: Exploring the Engineering Major Decision Journey through First- Year Seminars1. IntroductionSelecting an engineering major is one of the most consequential decisions students make duringtheir first year of college. This choice not only shapes their academic path but also influenceslong-term career opportunities and personal fulfillment. At Texas Tech University, the WhitacreCollege of Engineering (WCOE) supports this process through a common course—ENGR 1110:Engineering Seminar—required for all first-year and transfer engineering students.ENGR 1110 is designed to introduce students to the breadth of engineering disciplines offeredwithin the college.
