similar backgrounds and have been found to increase theretention of HUG students [30]. Furthermore, Safe Zone ally training is an effective way topositively change campus climate by educating people about the terminologies of genderminorities and the biases these minorities experience [31, 19].To promote the pursuit of research careers among HUG students, we launched astudent-led initiative, the HUG Initiative, in the Department of Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE) at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, in which the proportion ofHUG students is consistently near 15% for both undergraduate and graduate programs. The HUGInitiative is a pilot study that systematically identifies the needs and obstacles of HUGs in theECE department

. Thisstudy was not intended as an intervention or model solution but to show the problem. Instead,this work was designed to present our experiences, encourage further research to understand thisspace better and encourage more effective training programs for graduate students withstructured, scaffolded experiences. Finally, we provided recommendations for our graduatestudent peers seeking to become faculty. This research paper will detail our classroom climate,teaching practice, and responsibilities as faculty apprentices. The following questions guided ourstudy:RQ1: What did we learn about teaching during our apprenticeships?RQ2: How did our understanding of teaching change by the end of our apprenticeship?BACKGROUNDA significant component of a
