StudentsIntroductionIncreasing achievement of underrepresented students in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) is a critical and difficult task [1]. Underrepresented students make up asmall fraction of the STEM workforce (13%) compared to white students (71%) [1]. Mentorship,particularly research mentorship, plays an important role in the development of scientific identity[2] and improves students’ moral, performance, and retention rates [3]. Therefore, mentoringunderrepresented students in research is critical for increasing their achievement. Students whoreceive research mentoring have described mentors as colleagues who provided them anopportunity to flourish. These students were more likely to identify as scientists, whereas thosewho did not

Engineering curriculum focuses primarily on developing technical skills, often withoutconsideration of the social (e.g., cultural, political, economic) contexts within these technologies,skills, or training are situated. Service-learning opportunities for engineering students and facultyrepresent one opportunity set for bridging social and technical knowledge and skills. Furthermore,service-learning courses can
