courses that everystudent in the major is expected to take. As a result, these nodes are larger in the visualizationbecause more students take them. Because these courses represent the foundational aspects of thecurriculum, core courses are often spread across the curriculum and are very carefully sequencedthrough the use of prerequisites. This expectation is confirmed in Figure 7.What was surprising about this constellation is that one of the core courses was taken very late inthe curriculum (circled in red). By hovering on this node, we saw that the course is about theimpact computers have on society.

We felt the discrepancies between STEM-H discipline research and education research (e.g. natural laws vs. conceptual frameworks,feasibility and ethicality of controlled studies in education), would be the main source of initialconfusion for participants. We hypothesized that the participants would benefit from anintroduction to foundational education research ideas, and we addressed these discrepancies thatlead to tensions due to differing views and values of research among the discipline-basedcommunities. We sought to unpack and diffuse tensions by emphasizing that anywhere on thelandscape, valuable research means appropriately

Another common occurrence is that engineering lab classes often encompass a widevariety of learning objectives [9]. For the purposes of ABET evaluation and assessment, it is notuncommon for lab classes to be used to assess student outcomes beyond experimentation, andincluding student outcomes having to do with communication, teamwork, ethics andprofessionalism, and life-long learning. Communication, in particular, is a component in labclasses that often results in the majority of time being spent on the preparation of written reportsrather than on actually doing the experiment or in reflecting on the results [10].

We also consider evidence of the alumni’s engagement in and support of thecollege as one measure of civic and professional engagement, one of the objectives of theprogram.IntroductionThe general goal of an engineering education is to provide students with the knowledge andskills necessary to operate effectively as an engineer. The main emphasis, of course, is ontechnical knowledge and skills, including problem-solving abilities. ABET engineeringaccreditation goes further and requires that the engineering education include ethics andprofessional skills, such as communication and the ability to work in multidisciplinary teams [1].However, leadership skills historically have been overlooked in undergraduate

It is outlined in ABET’s courseoutcomes criteria “ c” that students should have “an ability to design a system, component, orprocess to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social,political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability.”4 The inclusion of aprototype in the design process helps to improve the final design. Witnessing the results andlearning through failure in the earlier design phase minimizes loss in the later stages of productdevelopment. Creating a physical prototype can be an effective way to observe and assess ideasbefore implementing production.In these programs, renewable energy lab exercises have become an essential

engineeringintersect with one another.Engineering education should be a place where students are able to make connections betweencurrent political discourse, engineering content, and their practice as future engineers. Yet, thepressure to be the upholders of cultural practices in engineering can interrupt the cultivation oftheir emerging identities that integrate politics with engineering. Students should be afforded aspace where they can co-create meaning between their emerging identities and, introspectively,synthesize a transparent view of the ethical role and relationship that engineering has to society.Our work begins to highlight some of the challenges of pushing against the current culture ofengineering and re-politicizing the engineering
