Engineering should attract, promote, foster and retain talents, considering that individuals are different with unique characteristics. This requires flexibility in the education system in order to guarantee equal opportunities of anyone regardless of gender, race or any calssifiable traits. Ensuring inclusion and diversity in engineering education can make the skills development process more challenging for students, professorsm and educational institutions. Some of these challenges can be the result of physical needs, such as deafness or blindness, or mental and emotional issues, such as autism or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Other students can be part of groups that are still underrepresented in academia, like women, ethnic minorities or other underrepresented groups.
IDEE’19 aims to continue earlier discussions and reflections about diversity and inclusion in rngineering education, identify existing problems, and proposing solutions. It is also intended to create a bridge between schools to universities, highlighting that many problems that are visible in universities are the results of root causes that appear in earlier stages of education. This special session will promote new ways to face and deal with the problem of the lack of representation of numerous society sectors in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).
