ENED215

This is the third in a series of four seminars for students participating in the Dr. Marilyn Berman Engineering Living-Learning Programs: Flexus and Virtus. The purpose of the course is to enhance students' awareness of issues within society at large and the engineering field in particular. By exploring the historical and cultural factors that inform the current state of engineering, this course aims to help students develop a deeper understanding of how different groups experience and navigate the field of engineering. Through critical dialogue, reflection, and in-class activities, students will develop self-awareness; cultivate a consciousness of different dynamics of culture, power, and privilege; examine and critique different perspectives; and identify and analyze different forms of bias.
