In 2017, I chose to change my doctoral studies to engineering educationafter experiencing a pivot in research interests. My research focuses on teaching engineering toat-risk youth who reside in under-resourced communities.I arrived in ENE/WGSS 69500 in a neutral position about race, class, and gender. I completed asignificant amount of reading, but it was unsystematic and muddled without any structure and 9discourse. I was also hesitant in taking a course where I would

Engineer (Barbie). 2013. RandomHouse Books for Young Readers, 2013. 11Here’s an example of why unconscious bias matters. Professors in biology,chemistry, and physics at 6 major universities were sent an application for alaboratory manager position. All professors (127) received the same one-pagesummary. Half the time the applicant’s name was John and the other half Jennifer.On a scale of 1 to 7, professors gave John an average score of 4 for competence andJennifer 3.3. They would be more likely to hire John, and they would offer him moremoney.The bias had no relation to the professors’ age, sex, teaching field or tenure status.(so simply being a women doesn’t
