, women make up 14% of the engineering workforce (15% internationally),according to SWE Research Fast Facts, 2022. In 2020, 24% of bachelor’s degrees in engineeringwere earned by women, and women of color earned 10% of the total engineering degrees.However, there is no existing data particularly dedicated to international women of color inengineering. Women of Color are often presented as a monolith in all the statistical reports.While the overall number of STEM workers in the United States increased by 44.5 percentbetween 2000 and 2019, the number of immigrant STEM workers more than doubled over thesame period. By 2019, there were almost 2.5 million immigrant STEM workers, compared to just1.2 million in 2000. Women workers still remain
course plan includes five quizzes prior to the midterm and three quizzes post-midterm. This plan allows students to study Particle Dynamics before the midterm and studyRigid Body Dynamics after the midterm. The course typically experiences a failure rate ofapproximately 20%, with an average grade falling within the range of 2.5 to 2.9 out of 4. Inresponse to this challenge, one of the authors of this paper with another colleague implemented astrategy in the Fall semesters of 2019 and 2020 aimed at elevating the overall outcomes of thecourse. This involved offering second-chance quizzes and midterms to students who struggledwith the initial assessments.As described in a prior study authored by one of the contributors [54], the rationale
disparity is present in both the ComputerProgramming and Information Systems (CPIS) degree program, that has existed for over 20years, and the Computer Science degree program, that started in fall 2021. Figure 1. Computing degrees enrollment during the past decade since fall 2010In their earlier work, authors analyzed the issue at FSC during the past decade and the efforts toaddress the issue. These efforts were inconsistent and temporary in nature due to various on-campus factors (such as limited funding, lack of faculty time, difficulty of hiring new faculty)and external factors (such as COVID19 pandemic, campuswide and statewide budget freezes)[15-16]. Subsequently, in 2019, the authors developed a vision to balance enrollment
need for moreinclusive teaching approaches in engineering education. While there are numerous efforts toencourage and promote inclusive teaching in engineering (some within ASEE), relatively littleremains known about faculty and student beliefs and experiences surrounding inclusive teaching.The purpose of this paper is to examine faculty and student beliefs surrounding inclusive teachingand to draw out themes that emerge across these groups. To accomplish this goal, we present apreliminary analysis of a subset of engineering student and faculty interviews.In the following sections, we will introduce some relevant literature on inclusive teaching in STEMand engineering education, including current efforts and challenges.

Students in introductory engineering courses face challenges communicating and integrating their ideas in team projects. Often these challenges with team communication fall along gendered lines, where women students experience marginalization in team settings. This paper builds from previous research in the field of engineering education which integrated
