Contribution: This article explores issues of respect and inclusion among full-time non-tenure-track (NTT) electrical engineering faculty. Background: NTT faculty members are an important and growing part of electrical engineering programs in the USA. This article complements prior research on NTT faculty member career satisfaction and effectiveness, providing perspectives from the NTT faculty members themselves on their experiences with respect and inclusion. Research Question: The research question for this article is: How do NTT faculty members experience respect and inclusion in electrical engineering departmental cultures? Methodology: Using a qualitative design and semi-structured interview protocol, data were collected via 45-min interviews with 13 full-time NTT engineering faculty. The analysis used thematic coding. Findings: Most participants in this article work in departmental cultures that diminish their effectiveness. They are keenly aware of whether they feel respected and included in their department and these factors significantly affect their career satisfaction. Many of the participants have been specifically excluded from departmental discussion affecting their work, have suffered the effects of policies that are biased against them, and have been told directly or indirectly that their appointments are not valued by their administration or other faculty.

与清洁人员一样必要：研究密集型机构的全职非终身制电气工程学院尊重和包容的经验

贡献：本文探讨了全职非终身制 (NTT) 电气工程教师之间的尊重和包容问题。背景：NTT 教职员工是美国电气工程项目中重要且不断发展的一部分。本文补充了先前关于 NTT 教职员工职业满意度和有效性的研究，提供了 NTT 教职员工自己对他们在尊重和包容方面的经历的看法。研究问题：本文的研究问题是：NTT 教职员工如何在电气工程系文化中体验到尊重和包容？方法：使用定性设计和半结构化访谈协议，通过对 13 名 NTT 全职工程教师进行 45 分钟的访谈收集数据。分析使用了主题编码。发现：本文的大多数参与者在降低其效率的部门文化中工作。他们敏锐地意识到自己是否在部门中感到受到尊重和包容，而这些因素会显着影响他们的职业满意度。许多参与者被明确排除在影响他们工作的部门讨论之外，遭受了对他们有偏见的政策的影响，并被直接或间接地告知他们的任命不受其管理部门或其他教职员工的重视。
