Diverse engineers are presumed incapable and pitted against “real engineers.”Yet ABET’s new requirements for diverse teaming reflect the reality that if our students don’tget basic training in power relations across categories like race, gender, class, ability, sexualorientation, gender identity, nationality, immigrant status, and veteran status, they

Some respondents may have rated theimportance of the 11 skills and their confidence in them in ways that do not reflect their truevalues and ability beliefs about these skills. We did not have any means to triangulate thecollected data. Lastly, given that the leadership ability item was loosely defined in the survey, itis not immediately clear what the survey respondents thought of leadership when completing thesurvey, which may have influenced their importance and confidence

manufacturing in both of these disciplinesis needed8. Many current engineering programs do not emphasize the marriage of design andmanufacturing in a modern industrial technical workforce [10].Many research studies have assessed the quality of exposure to manufacturing through the seniordesign or capstone course. McMasters and Lang indicate that few people in industry have anunderstanding of how the current engineering education is undertaken. Through design projects,the inclusion of industry partners in the education process will enhance the education provided tothe students and better reflect the expectations of industry [11]. Universities are exposingstudents to manufacturing through senior capstone design courses to offer students with arealistic

Authorities integrate entrepreneurshipinto their discourse, which mobilized people.When the idea of entrepreneurship is present in the discourse of the highest authority, the ideaflows downwards and transcends faculty members, staff, and students. In our sample, the top-down model is best reflected at the PUC case. Here, the Ingeniería 2030 project strengthened analready existing emphasis already in the dean, increasing its importance among the facultymembers and other actors, who did not necessarily share the vision of the entrepreneurialengineer.

dates back to the American philosopher John Dewey who defined it asreflective thinking. Dewey defined reflective thinking as “…the ground or basis for a belief isdeliberately sought and its adequacy to support the belief examined” [4]. This definition evolvedinto intellectual abilities and skills by Benjamin Bloom who developed Bloom’s taxonomy ofeducational objectives [5]. Currently, P21 classifies critical thinking as reasoning effectively, usingsystems thinking, making judgements and decisions, and solving problems [3]. Critical thinking is important to develop in students. The Femineer® Program is able tohelp students develop critical thinking skills by introducing systems thinking into the WearableTechnology curriculum. This will

The strength of such an approach is that it enables an analysis of socialphenomena beyond the abstract social structures (e.g. social, economic, political) traditionallystudied by researchers in the social and behavioral sciences (Wellman 1999).Ego-centered (or personal) networks make the individual the focus of attention where egodescribes people (alters) close to him or her (Boissevain 1974; Wellman & Berkowitz 1988).According to Wellman (1999), such investigations “enable researchers to study community ties,whoever with, wherever located, and however structured…and avoid the trap of looking

These results are interesting, because the stateof Michigan as a whole has one of the largest per-capita populations of engineers in the country.Yet, the greater Lansing metropolitan area is a bit of an exception to that trend, with very fewtechnology based employers. That is reflected in this data, with only 14 students reporting thattheir parents are engineers. The majority of those responding that they knew an engineer tendedto cite a more distant relationship both in terms of bloodline and geography.Many of the survey questions focused on student perceptions of what do engineers do, and whatdoes it take to become an engineer.
