The authors present the idea ofworking collaboratively with diverse groups of people to address the needs of differentparticipants in the engineering process.Lucena [25], inspired by the philosopher Nussbaum, provides one of the multipledefinitions for social justice. “Social justice practices, including those by engineers, should attempt to an equal distribution of rights, opportunities and resources in order to enhance human capabilities and reduce the risk and harms among the citizens of a society” (p.10)Every engineering creation, and engineering education act, is a vote to guide societytowards a certain place.

RQ3: How can engineering schools better support international and all students based on this information?Instances of exclusion that particularly affected international students included the languagebarrier and social isolation. International students’ persistence strategies mainly consisted ofvarious ways students adapted or conformed themselves to the domestic environment, eitheralone or with the help of others. In the conclusion, we use our results to make recommendationsfor initiatives to improve the international student experience.
