“…The lack of representation and retention of racialized students in Engineering programs is well researched [4][5][6][7][8][9]. Students in racial minorities have often reported experiencing biased interactions from their peers [10]. Biased interactions can lead URM students to hold lower perceptions of inclusivity and belonging in these programs, which unfortunately can push these students to change majors or leave academia entirely [10].…”

“…Students in racial minorities have often reported experiencing biased interactions from their peers [10]. Biased interactions can lead URM students to hold lower perceptions of inclusivity and belonging in these programs, which unfortunately can push these students to change majors or leave academia entirely [10]. A US nationwide survey conducted in 2001 found that the level of technological preparedness in college freshmen varied significantly by race and class [11].…”

“…Stereotypes in STEM textbooks that depict higher male representation can influence girls' perceptions of fields like computer science as being "better suited for men" [13]. Family influences also play a major role in girls' career decision-making [10]. From the outset, female students tend to receive less encouragement to pursue engineering or computer sciences compared with their male peers, despite having the same core competencies [1].…”

This article delves into the issues of equity, diversity, and inclusiveness (EDI) in the engineering disciplines in Canada and Spain and presents the challenges faced by underrepresented individuals and ways to promote an inclusive and diverse environment. Two strategic lines are identified: (a) facilitating university education access to underrepresented and minority groups and (b) guiding such students during university training to set them up for successful future careers. Accordingly, this article shows how the strategies mentioned above are implemented in some selected Canadian and Spanish universities, clearly distinguishing the approach taken in the two countries. In Canada, there is a more decentralized approach to addressing EDI issues, wherein the universities devise their agendas independently. In Spain, on the other hand, there is a stronger and more direct involvement of the government to ensure a comprehensive, system-wide approach to tackling EDI issues in academia. This article helps education policymakers to devise and implement pragmatic strategies for achieving EDI and the relevant UN-defined sustainable development goals.

is a member of Northeastern University's first-year engineering facutly, a group of teaching faculty expressly devoted to the first-year Engineering Program at Northeastern University. The focus of this team is on providing a consistent, engaging and hands-on experience for first-year students, hoping to excite and inspire them in the first step of their journey. There is a strong team, continuously improving on project-based curriculum for the first-year and beyond. Sudan Freeman is also the Associate Dean, Undergraduate Education.
