Key strategies to introduce social justice into engineering education
Case studies and examples of non-traditional places (e.g., NGOs, poor communities) for engineers to intervene in social justice and of traditional places (e.g., thermodynamics class, transportation systems) where engineers do not consider social justice as a significant dimension
Brings together perspectives of scholars from a wide range of universities, teaching and researching at the intersection of engineering and social justice ?
