Advancing Diversity in Humanitarian Engineering Education: Unveiling the Value of Investing in Marginalized Graduate Students’ Cultural and Social Capital.I n early 2020, amidst global shifts driven by social justice movements, activists, scholars, and stakeholders urged increased representation of practitioners from marginalized racial backgrounds and nationalities in leadership roles within the HE sector. Consequently, there was a concerted push for greater enrollment of marginalized community members in HE educational programs[1], [2], [3] hile the call to increase diversity within HE educational programs appears universally desired,Wachieving tangible progress proves challenging within the structure of modern
Service-learning in Environmental Engineering: Projects with Local Water and Wastewater Treatment PlantsAbstractOver the past several years, faculty and students in Civil Engineering at the United States CoastGuard Academy have partnered with local water and wastewater plant personnel on a variety ofprojects.

ABANDONING THE LECTURE: USING JOB MEETINGS TO TEACH WITHIN AN INTERNATIONAL, PROJECT-BASED LEARNING ENVIRONMENT David Jan Cowan Indiana University/Purdue University/Indianapolis (IUPUI)Abstract This paper looks at the notion that lecturing is not necessarily the most appropriatedelivery method for Architectural Engineering Technology courses that rely heavily uponrecreating the work environment within the classroom. The architectural project method is onethat is time-tested in architectural design schools, yet has been less embraced within engineeringand technology courses that tend to have a history of teacher-centered, lecture-based teachingmethods

Simulant ProductionAbstractA NASA-ESMD (National Aeronautics and Space Administration-Exploration Systems MissionDirectorate) funded senior design project “Mineral Separation Technology for Lunar RegolithSimulant Production” is directed toward designing processes to produce simulant materials asclose to lunar regolith as possible. The eight undergraduate (junior and senior) students involvedare taking a systems engineering design approach to identifying the most pressing concerns insimulant needs, then designing subsystems and processing strategies to meet these needs usingterrestrial materials. This allows the students to, not only learn the systems engineering designprocess, but also, to make a significant contribution to an important NASA ESMD
