has published in scholarly and practitioner-focused jour- nals on topics including evaluation design, instrument validation, and the effectiveness of policy change. After graduating from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a B.S. in Psychology Adrienne completed a Masters of Education in Curriculum and Instruction at UNC Greensboro. She taught third grade before returning to UNC Chapel Hill to complete a PhD in Education. In addition to her evaluation work Adrienne has worked on multiple research projects, taught doctoral- level research methods and statistic courses, and mentored undergraduate and graduate students.Dr. Rosabel Deloge, Educational Consultant-Independent Retired Career &

size that is more reflective of the variedpersonnel in engineering will help us create a more inclusive and well-rounded dataset foranalysis. From this study, anecdotal evidence, at least, has been generated to show that peoplenavigating engineering environments do hold implicit bias. Further work is necessary tounderstand the ways in which eye-tracking can be used to accurately detect such biases.References[1] D. Chubin, G. May and E.
