. This major would have students take an Introduction to Engineering Design class,Statics, Materials, complete an external project, and do a one-semester capstone. Thisengineering curriculum would be supported by math, physics and chemistry courses, includingelectronics and thermodynamics through the physics department. The initial engineering sciencedegree was not meant to be an ABET-accredited degree but a pathway for students interested inengineering to gain engineering training while integrating other interests such as business,environmental science, and data science. This degree was intended to provide strong preparationfor careers in areas such as entrepreneurship, project management, architecture/design,government technology policy

This project focused on introducing students in the Civil Engineering TechnologyProgram to sustainability concepts using the EOP framework. Curricular adaptations wereimplemented for two courses: Introduction to Civil Engineering and Structural Steel Design,both in the Civil Engineering Technology Program reaching 102 students. The two pilot coursesserved as examples to incorporate sustainability concepts into other technical courses within theprogram to ensure the students are well-grounded and prepared to be sustainability change agentsin their future careers in the

Further, women who choose STEM majors are almost twice as likely as mento leave that major due to an unwelcoming culture or lack of engaging introductory courses [11].While it appears that some sex- and racially-based barriers have been removed as students movefrom secondary school through the university, the shortage of women and minorities in STEMcareers remains relatively intractable.There is a growing body of evidence that hidden biases in the workplace contribute to theleakage of women and minorities from STEM-related industries [2].

Students from highly populated areas have moreopportunities in the educational system to explore in-depth access to STEM versus students frommore rural areas. This is related to the availability of qualified staff and resources in the ruralschool system.

Also, faculty must be aware ofthe diverse background of E/CS students, which means that some students are less equipped tohandle overloaded coursework than others.Academic achievement is also a marker for persistence, admission, and further studies in agraduate school in an engineering major.
