Episode 14: What does social justice have to do with engineering? with Dr. Donna Riley

Send us Fan MailWhat does social justice have to do with engineering? This is one of the most disheartening questions I have ever heard. It would be bad enough if it came from someone in the general public; what made it terrifying is that it came from an engineer - a civil engineer. For all who are wondering, tune in for the answer.In this episode, I speak with Dr. Donna Riley, the Kamyar Haghighi Head of the School of Engineering Education at Purdue University, about a number of topics including: convergent research approaches for solving societal problems, connections between climate justice and  social justice, and how societal inequities translate to inequities in engineering education (and vice versa).When you listen, please do these three (3) things for me:Take a moment to SUBSCRIBE, leave a 5-STAR RATING, a GREAT REVIEW, and SHARE with others.Follow #EngineeringChangePodcast  on Twitter.Visit engineeringchangepodcast.com for more information and to connect with me.Support the showENGINEERING CHΔNGE® is a registered trademark held by Dr. Yvette E.
