Such learning experiences willensure that students develop employability skills, a lack of which could lead to graduates missingout on rewarding careers [4]. The proposed solution will

practices that advantage white men over other social groups continue to persistwithin both academia and engineering [5]. Antiquated ideologies about who belongs inengineering education often persist among faculty and students [6], particularly within PWIsettings, which can result in students of color experiencing marginalization and isolation duringtheir undergraduate careers [7], [8], [9]. Consequently, these students are often retained in theengineering pipeline at disproportionately lower rates than their white peers [1], [10]. Thecontinued underrepresentation of Black and Brown individuals among engineering bachelor’sdegree recipients in the U.S. contributes to persistent equity gaps and racial homogenizationwithin the profession [11

Laboratory work plays a crucial role in shaping the professionaldevelopment of university engineering students as it enables them to cultivate these essentialpractices [1, 2].

to better preparestudents for their future engineering careers, partly because of conflicting beliefs about thepurposes and methods of education [9]. For those who believe that current methods are mostlysuccessful, technical preparation takes precedence over contextualizing engineering knowledgein societal contexts. Learning to work within larger social issues occurs on the job and later inone’s career. Such prioritization of disciplinary knowledge in the curriculum is, however, oftenbased on a zero-sum calculus that assumes the time spent on societal context is time taken awayfrom core engineering knowledge. There is evidence this perspective is not fully correct [10].Other perspectives emphasize the need for more professional or
