Engineering Education, 2019 Work in Progress: Design of “Risk and Resilience” Focused Courses for Undergraduate Engineering Education Towards a Hazard-Resilient Built EnvironmentAbstract:In the last few decades, there has been a significant increase in the number and magnitude ofnatural and man-made hazards, which imposes a tremendous risk to the built environment. Inresponse to the urgent needs for engineering professionals to address these hazards and improvethe resilience of our built environment, it is critical to develop a workforce with risk and resilienceskills to meet the increasing demand for managing disaster-resilient built environment.

impacted women students’ SoB and ASC.1. Introduction and BackgroundGender imbalance in computing programs is a persisting issue not only at Farmingdale StateCollege (FSC), but also at the national and international level. The authors have taken a multi-faceted approach to balance the gender gap by running multiple support programs at FSC moreconsistently since fall 2019 [1]. This paper focuses on the intervention of providing womenstudents with an opportunity to attend an overnight, women in computing conference. Preliminaryresults from the first in-person overnight mixed-gender field trip in spring 2022 were positive [2].This paper evaluates the impact of the second in-person overnight trip, that was limited to womenonly in spring 2023.Enrollment

American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) has also proposed a set of coreprinciples stipulating that engineering learning may be considered three dimensional with a focuson engineering habits of mind (e.g., creativity, iteration, collaboration), engineering practices(design, optimization, constraint assessment), and engineering knowledge (principles, problemsolving, and technological outputs) [5]. This approach diverges from the way STEM hastypically been taught in U.S. middle schools, where science and engineering principles are rarelyanchored in relevant phenomena [6]. Since teachers often assume the main responsibility forimplementing engineering tasks in their classrooms to comply with the widespread focus onSTEM integration, they may
