research instrumentThis study aimed to gain insight into the factors influencing students' decisions to pursuegraduate studies in engineering. We conducted a survey in the Faculty of Engineering at aresearch-based university in Ontario, Canada. The survey sought correlations between students'intersectional identity factors and family background, their perceptions of the Faculty ofEngineering’s resources and support systems, their lived experiences of discrimination,inclusion, equity, and equality, and their decisions to (re)consider graduate degrees. The surveywas created and administered through REDCap, a secure online platform designed for creatingand managing databases and surveys on the web. Ethics approval had been sought from andgranted by

Their overall improvement inEOP learning objectives was seen across the curriculum, each bar showing a percentage of increasedperception of knowledge in different topic areas (Fig.5). EOP topics such as design thinking related tominimizing environmental and social impact, recognizing local and indigenous practices and use of locallysourced materials was improved by 75% and 38% for first-years and sophomores, respectively.

While the majority of research focus isgiven to students' use and how to address the associated risks and concerns, relatively less focusis shed on its use for instructional design purposes [15] [16].

Whether in response to the ascent of the managerialprofession during the 1920s; or efforts, amidst postwar “physics envy,” to differentiateengineering from science by embracing a new ethic of professional responsibility (even asengineers turned, simultaneously, to science to compete more directly with physicists); or yetagain, during the late 60s and the 1970s, to lay claim to even broader claims of socialresponsibility through direct utilization of liberal knowledge, liberal education has served as apreferred means for the “reconversion strategies” of engineers, at least among those committedto the
