This trend appears to be, unfortunately, present at a majority of U.S.institutions of higher education [1]. In order to address this critical issue, engineering facultymembers at this university developed a program for a subset of incoming first-year engineeringstudents, called the Engineering Learning Community (ELC). The ELC was first implemented inthe Fall 2016 semester, and since then has been iterated each academic year based on studentfeedback, best practices, and, beginning in the Fall 2019 semester, support from the NationalScience Foundation (NSF) in the form of S-STEM scholarships for financially qualified students.The

Unconscious bias (or implicit bias) can be defined as “a prejudice in favor of or againstone thing, person, or group compared with another usually in a way that’s considered to beunfair. Biases may be held by an individual, group, or institution and can have negative orpositive consequences” [2]. Unconscious bias is pervasive and affects our decisions, even whenwe think we are operating objectively.

deeply in graduate education,interdisciplinary learning has not been highly reflected or cultivated in engineering educationcurricula [1]. This lack of acknowledgment may be attributed to the historical exclusion ofinterdisciplinary ways of being and thinking across the disciplines, which also limits how studentssee themselves as engineers. Historical perspectives within engineering education include thosethat “institutionalize cultural and epistemic injustice” by excluding views that deviate from thedominant ways of thinking in engineering [2, p. 4].

BackgroundIntroductionEthics is the “standards of conduct that apply to everyone” [1]. It is the difference between rightand wrong. People use ethics to determine how to act when confronted with any situation; askingquestions such as “who will this benefit?”, “who will this harm?”, and “what are theconsequences?”. However, engineering ethics is different from everyday ethics. Engineeringethics are a set of professional ethics, or “those special morally permissible standards of conductthat

engineering education does not encourage or cultivate socially relevant thoughtsgiven the evidence of a lack of meaningful interpersonal relationships within the field (Seymourand Hewitt, 1977). Furthermore, the concerns of a culture of disengagement from social andpolitical issues is prevalent in engineering trajectories (Cech, 2014). Public-inspired science can include elements of 1) science as a “public good,” 2) citizenscience to empower people, 3) service learning, and 4) social justice and investigative science(Edwards, 2016).
