industries are also recognizing that sustainable design leads to better,more economical, longer lasting facilities that are people-friendly. Inevitably, much of majorconstruction in the coming decades will feature sustainable design and construction processes.Sustainability must become a fundamental consideration in all civil engineering design andconstruction. As the leaders of change in fundamental civil engineering processes, it is theresponsibility of civil engineering departments nationwide to lead the movement towardsustainable civil engineering development through research and education of their students. TheASCE code of ethics suggests that failure to do so is a breach of civil engineering educationethics. In addition, to make sustainability

Although they offered a first-year seminar,ETCS was experiencing retention rates to graduation of less than 50%, with the majority ofstudents leaving by the end of the second year. To improve retention rates, college facultymodified the existing Introduction to Engineering course, which previously followed thehistorical format of a seminar series about engineering professions. The new high-tech formatallows for student development of computer and personal skills necessary to succeed inengineering curriculums. The main focus of the new introduction course is the design andconstruction of an autonomous mobile robot by student teams, similar to the CSU, Chico model.The project requires students to apply

Specifically, a single interaction or experience (such as a co-op) cansometimes mean the difference between taking a job after graduation in engineering or anotherfield.1 Further, research suggests that cooperative education and internships result in increasedsocial and cultural capital of those who participate, which can contribute to their ability to secureemployment after graduation.2 Student perceptions of the engineering field, which can be shapedby undergraduate work experiences, can also impact persistence in engineering programs.3-7While there is a growing literature examining the relationship

Experience 2 shows that students learn and develop problemsolving skills best through a three-step process: (1) Introduction: knowledge of the skill or toolis introduced in a traditional lecture manner. (2) Bridging: understanding the skill begins byusing it, generally on a familiar situation. (3) Application: confidence and competence with theskill are strengthened by extending the use to a new situation. In Engr 110Z, Mini-Workshops4,5and structured homework assignments were used to accomplish Steps (1) and (2).

In this paper, I offer a critical examinationof three prominent outreach strategies and how they present ideas about how best toengage women in engineering.
