increase engagement in science, technology, engineering, and math(STEM). Recent studies have made significant advances in unveiling LGBTQ+ inequities andmarginalization in STEM, such as disparate retention rates in STEM educational programs [1] andprofessional devaluation [2]. These emerging studies suggest that the LGBTQ+ community ismarginalized and that the LGBTQ+ community should be included in efforts to broaden participation inSTEM.Suitably, the number of grants awarded to study and support the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender,and queer (LGBTQ+) community in STEM fields has grown over the past few decades. For example, in2020, the NSF awarded the first-ever CAREER grant that explicitly included the acronym “LGBTQ” in theproposal title

; exposing policy students to contemporary technologicalissues and the importance of understanding technology in the policy creation process; andpromoting and increasing future involvement of the students, generally, and engineering andscience students, particularly, in the policy making process.IntroductionThe present wisdom holds that as technology becomes increasingly important in society, there isa simultaneously increasing need for a well-trained workforce comprising leaders and decisionmakers who understand technical issues and problems associated with our economic, social andenvironmental well-being, including those related to clean water, environmental sustainability,information security, energy production, nonproliferation, food security

In June 2016, the China Association for Science and Technology, onbehalf of China, was unanimously approved the application for becoming a fullsignatory at the International Engineering Alliance Meetings, and became the 18thofficial signatory of the Washington Accord. China’s formal accession to theWashington Accord marks that its engineering education accreditation system hasbeen recognized by the international engineering community. The accession to theWashington Accord is the basis and key to promote the international mutualrecognition of Chinese engineers’ qualifications, and is of great significance forChina’s engineering and technology field to cope with international competition [2].China’s accessing the

a doctoral candidate in the school of engineering education at Purdue University with a multidisciplinary research focus that combines theory and practice in the area of learning science, Human-computer interaction (HCI), and engineering education. His primary research focuses on the design and development of educational technologies that can facilitate different aspects (e.g., engagement) of the students’ learning and provide an engaging experience for the students. Further, he is interested in designing instructional interventions and exploring their relationship with different aspects of first-year engineering (FYE) students’ learning (e.g., motivation and learning strategies). Before Purdue University, he
