Students also reported on thechallenges that they faced finding detailed and locally relevant information on engineering careerpathways outside the classroom environment and several of them were struggling with issues related toengineering identity development and sense of belonging. Furthermore, students articulated that whatdrew them to engineering was their desire to develop their quantitative and critical thinking skills, andtheir love of innovation and design, all of which are closely

By setting thisfoundation of sustainability early in their academic career, students will be better suited to considerthe triple bottom line when developing design solutions for complex challenges they will face asscientists and engineers, not to mention as citizens and consumers.The academic part of the HERE program consists of three complementary courses that meetgraduation requirements for most

She wasn’tinterested in pursuing a career in the technical-focused engineering field, but after seeing theconnections between engineering and social justice, she had a change of heart and wasreconsidering that decision: I also learned that engineering can involve social justice issues as well.

Thin cases do not deal with issues stemming from “partiality,” a typical human traitin ordinary life where someone is partial to one or more persons.
