  1. CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: IEEE ETHICS-2023: Ethics in the Global Innovation Helix

18-20 May 2023, Purdue University, West Lafayette, Indiana, USA

IEEE ETHICS-2023 will draw together the global community of technology and ethics practitioners and theoreticians from industry, academia, government, and civil society. Issues will be explored from industry, scientific and societal perspectives, in a global and multicultural manner. ETHICS-2023 is a conference of the IEEE Society on Social Implications of Technology (SSIT) (series originally launched in 2014). ETHICS-2023 is co-sponsored and hosted by the National Institute for Engineering Ethics in the School of Engineering Education at Purdue University, a leading land grant university with top-ranked engineering, technology, and computing programs, and an expansive portfolio of sponsored research and engagements in the ethics and policy realms. The triple helix model of innovation was introduced in the 1990s, developed to theorize and understand interactions between academia, industry, and government. Since then, scholars have expanded it to include additional strands or sectors, including society or the public (quadruple helix) and the natural environment (quintuple helix). The conference theme, “Ethics in the Global Innovation Helix,” underscores questions about the role and place of ethics and related concerns (e.g., social responsibility, social justice, regulatory compliance, etc.) in interactions between these strands, especially in ongoing processes of technology innovation, diffusion, evolution, and maintenance.

  1. CALL FOR PARTICIPATION: 2023 PEER Collaborative National Workshop and Unconference

Save the Date: Wednesday, June 28 (dinner) and Thursday, June 29 (unconference day), 2023

Are you a faculty (new hire, pre-tenure, mid-career tenured faculty), postdoc, or staff member who is primarily evaluated on your engineering education work? The PEER Collaborative is a growing community of people in similar situations who mentor and support each other in their engineering education research positions.

Each year, academic members who are primarily evaluated on engineering education research have been meeting to talk through our needs together in our emerging research-based discipline of engineering education. There are too few senior faculty with expertise in engineering education research, and those colleagues are either too sought after or otherwise engaged to be able to spend much time with early career faculty. An annual workshop and unconference hosted immediately after ASEE has helped us to meet our own needs through peer and near-peer mentoring. The goals of the workshop are to 1. develop, support, and augment networks and working relationships and 2. support and be supported by peers near your same career level on different aspects of work and personal life.

Please join us for this year’s dinner and unconference!

Tentative PEER 2023 Schedule:

Wednesday, 6:30pm-8:00 pm: Dinner (at a nearby restaurant)

Thursday, 9:00am-5:00 pm: Unconference (with lunch break)

Come to as many or as few events as you are able. The location is TBD but near the Baltimore Conference Center.

Please register at our website: https://sites.google.com/view/peer-collaborative. Please direct any questions to Corey Bowen at cbowen5@calstatela.edu.

  1. POSITION ANNOUNCEMENT: Racial Equity Qualitative Researcher at the University of San Diego

This is a full-time temporary, benefit-based position with an anticipated end date of July 31, 2024. This position is a 12-month position with opportunity for renewal for up to a total of 36 months.

We are seeking a researcher to join the research team studying Co-Constructing Faculty Critical Consciousness, a NSF project funded by the EHR Racial Equity program. This project aims to move engineering education towards racial equity through the creation of a faculty development program that examines the scripts of Whiteness in engineering education curricula and spaces. The overall goals of this project are twofold: to advance understanding of the role Whiteness plays in engineering education and to create a professional development program to help engineering faculty develop the skills to critically question social, cultural, historical, and political effects of Whiteness in engineering. This project will result in the creation of immersive experiences for engineering faculty that serve as a vehicle for the development of critical consciousness, which is the foundation to enact changes that will address racial inequity in engineering and provide a model that supports practices to challenge Whiteness in engineering spaces.

We are seeking a postdoctoral researcher who is able to conduct interviews and aid in logistics, analysis of qualitative data, and preparation of publications that result from the data collected from our faculty development program. The postdoc researcher will look for emerging trends across all program participants from year-to-year.

Minimum Qualifications:
