STRIDE focuses on shaping transformative research in engineering identity and diversity. The group investigates how diverse populations develop their identities as engineers and how these social identities impact inclusion and persistence within the engineering field. STRIDE engages in research framed around the social constructions of race, gender, and class, and also includes explorations of the latent forms of diversity, such as sexual orientation and gender expression. The group believes that broad representation within the field of engineering is crucial for developing effective engineering solutions and fostering a more inclusive culture in engineering. Their work aims to promote significant changes rather than incremental improvements in engineering education and practice.
