It wasdone in class, electronically, for a small amount of credit. The data are still being evaluated,however there are some preliminary observations and conclusions that can be gleaned fromassignment performance. Before the project, it is anticipated that student attitudes were mixedbetween a) wondering how it was applicable, b) being excited to learn more about it, and c)being tired of the

Sarah Bouazzaoui Charles B Daniels, PhD Engineering Management and Systems Engineering Old Dominion University AbstractIn the United States of America, public policies and public decision making associated with theengineering field are set by individuals who does not possess expertise and knowledge to carry outthese tasks [1]. Most of decision makers are lawyers and social scientists, not engineers [2]. Thepurpose of this paper is to analyze the various factors which either encourage or inhibit engineersfrom influencing and participating in public policy. In this study, a grounded theory approach willbe followed, data will be collected
