departments, suggests that engineering culture can shift if programs, schools, anddepartments actually enact the university’s espoused DEI values.Contrasting with the primarily descriptive approach taken by researchers cited above, Bates and hercolleagues invoke Schein’s model of culture in a more agentic manner. Their paper documents thedevelopment of two new project-based engineering programs seeking accreditation.18 Their intention to“build a more inclusive culture for tomorrow’s engineers” differs from Godfrey and Parker’s use ofculture as a vehicle for ethnographic insight about an existing institutional context.18 Bates et al.’s callfor change urges us to view engineering culture as malleable. Along the same vein, Tonso,19 Riley,20Kim et al,21

Focal area of the value stream map for “tactical” applications.The Design Project – Philosophy and MeasurementUlrich and Eppinger10 provide valuable discussion of considerations related to the designproject(s). In particular, three items are related to this paper: (1) methods of generating projectideas, (2) general project guidelines, and (3) measurement of project assignments.Methods of generating projects suggested by Ulrich and Eppinger10 include: (a) student-conceived projects, (b) industry-sponsored projects, and (c) faculty-specified projects. They alsoprovide advice on general project guidelines, one of which we approached more like a challengeinstead of advice: “Save any highly proprietary ideas for another
achieved both professional AND academic credentials equal to or higher than those of the individuals involved in the P&T process. These "Peer Reviewers" serve as "Quality Assurance Evaluators" to insure the standards of the discipline and the academic community are being sustained. By having individuals who are neither professionally and/or academically qualified to serve in a Peer Review process, we would begin to see that the quality of the program(s) and the academic faculty (over time) would become "watered-down" and "ineffective". Furthermore, it would provide our true academic peers with an opportunity to ridicule and denigrate a system that uses outside "experts" as a key component of our

We followed that lead inreceiving and studiously responding to the nuances of markers that participants in our researchstudy shared with us, as they assessed our trustworthiness. With our focus on stewardship, werespectfully received the stories they chose to share with us, recognizing that they contributedvaluable knowledge with each story they shared.Use of markers in qualitative analysisRobert S. Weiss defined a marker, in the context of qualitative interview studies, as “a passingreference made by a respondent to an important event or feeling state.” [2] In an example, hestated that
in the solution of broadly defined problems. Civil Engineering Technician (CE Technician) is a person typically performing task- oriented scientific or engineering related activities and exercising technical judgments commensurate with those specific tasks. A person working as a CE Technician works under the direct control and personal supervision of a CE Professional or direction of a CE Technologist. A person initially obtains status as a CE Technician through the completion of requisite formal education, experience, examination(s), and/or other requirements as specified by an appropriate credentialing body. A person working as a CE Technician is expected to comprehend and
Continuous ImprovementContinuous improvement should be a part of every program and course and having the benefit ofdesigning the program with a clean sheet gave us the opportunity to integrate continuousimprovement from the start, beginning with our courses. To assist, we created a slide format tosummarize what we learned and that we also use to discuss our new insights with our DataScience Advisory Council. For example, Figure 1, below, is an example for the course forstudents not ready for Calculus I. Our faculty completes them every year for their course, andwe use the feedback to improve the course and the student experience.

After the lecture given by the professor(s), Iwould head straight to the studio and either begin on the new task at hand or quickly tidy mydesk so that I could start on a clear working space. After variations of sketches and messily-put-together sketch models, after class would end, I would either grab something quick to eat or headstraight to my next class. After all my classes are finished for the day I would either head to workor return to my dorm. On a day that I was not going to work I would go to my dorm for a bit ofdown time to relax from the events of the day and would most likely return to studio to finish anassignment

One industrial engineering persister had regularly attended the professor’s officehours in the reliability engineering class, and found that he would “stay extra just to help” her.

PhenomenographyPhenomenography is the empirical study of the qualitatively different ways in which aspects ofthe world are experienced. That is, it involves mapping phenomena, or the relations betweenpersons and aspects of their world31. It is a qualitative research approach first used in the originalwork of the Swedish researchers Ference Marton32-34, Roger Säljö35, 36, Lennart Svensson37 andLars-Öwe Dahlgren38 in the mid-70s. Phenomenography was initially developed to investigatelearning among university students, leading to identifying the ‘surface’ and ‘deep’ approachesthat are widely known in education circles today32. Phenomenography appeared in its own rightas a research approach for describing people’s experiences during the early 1980’s (see forexample

Social Consciousness Competency: understanding that the engineering solutions should primarily serve people and society reflecting social consciousness [3].Each university in the NAE GCSP network creates their own GCSP requirements through whichthey utilize available university resources and opportunities to support their students in achievingall five competencies. These requirements may include coursework, extra-curricularopportunities, other organized programming, or approved individual experiences.

Projects are based on faculty mentor’s scholarship and exploration. 2. Projects are long-term and large-scale, continuing for many years, even decades. 3. Program is curricular and all participating students are graded (A-F; not P/F or S/U). 4. Students can participate and earn credits toward their degrees for at least two years. 5. Learning outcomes focus on the development of both disciplinary and professional skills. 6. Multi-disciplinary teams are encouraged but not required. 7. Dedicated classroom
