How do Black engineering and computing doctoral students analyze and appraise their (depleted) STEM diversity programming
Purpose Local and national U.S. programs focused on diversifying science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) in academia and industry have created academic pathways for Black Engineers. However, most STEM diversity programs in doctoral education typically end or availability significantly decreases. This absence leaves little or limited guidance during the challenging process of completing this terminal degree and seeking employment.…
Accelerating Racial Activism in STEM Higher Education by Institutionalizing Equity Ethics
Background/Context: The United States invests in STEM education, but this investment is racialized and political. The country wants to maintain global economic domination, but there are also calls to diversify the STEM workforce (Baber, 2015; Basile & Lopez, 2015; Vakil & Ayers, 2019). This context leaves Black and Brown people to navigate racially hostile, toxic, and oppressive STEM learning and working environments (Bullock, 2017; Erete et al.,…
How women of colour engineering faculty respond to wage disparities
Women of Color (WoC) engineering faculty in higher education differ in their approaches to coping with inequities and salary disparities. This study draws upon McGee's Stereotype Management [McGee, E. O. 2016. “Devalued Black and Latino Racial Identities: A By-Product of College STEM Culture?” American Educational Research Journal 53 (6): 1626–1662; McGee, E. O. 2020a. Black, Brown, Bruised: How Racialized STEM Education Stifles Innovation. Cambr…
Factors contributing to Black engineering and computing faculty’s pathways toward university administration and leadership
Afrofuturism
Afrofuturism intersects imagination, technology, the future, and liberation – a way of imagining possible futures through a Black/Afrocentric cultural lens. science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education and occupations are designed to attract White men who are heterosexual, abled-bodied, Christian or atheist, and at least middle class. The STEM practices that breed a Eurocentric White male norm are framed to ignore how they pr…
Racism camouflaged as impostorism and the impact on Black STEM doctoral students
Black doctoral students in engineering and computing fields experience racialized stress, as structural racism in STEM takes a toll on their sense of belonging and acceptance as intellectually competent in comparison to White and some Asian peers and faculty. Black doctoral students are often told by campus administrators that the source of this racialized stress is impostorism and it is curable. In this article, we employ phenomenological analys…
Black engineering students’ motivation for PhD attainment
Purpose Much of the extant research, practice and policy in engineering education has focused on the limited persistence, waning interest and lack of preparation among Black students to continue beyond the post-secondary engineering pipeline. However, this research suggests that many Black PhD students persist and succeed in engineering, fueled by various motivational strengths. To better understand the motivations of Black students in engineerin…
