engineering educationTechnical + Professional - Social/Behavioral: While it’s quite possible that many engineering roles mayfunction in this area, the authors propose that engineers may feel a lack of purpose that drives theircommitment or passion for their work. This could also be viewed as the current state of engineeringeducation that emphasizes technical capabilities, incorporates some professional skills, but seeminglyavoids any mention of social and behavioral qualities.Social/Behavioral + Professional - Technical: Completing engineering projects without the appropriatetechnical capabilities is widely regarded as irresponsible. Licensure and codes of ethics tends to preventthese occurrences though it is still important to remind students of the

We will use our findings to createresources for both faculty advisors and graduate students to support building this psychologicallysafe relationship. We plan to leverage this research to develop workshop materials, virtual tools,and guidelines for students and faculty advisors.AcknowledgmentsThis work was made possible by grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF #2224421and NSF #2316547).

Figure 1 shows a summary of theactivities in a typical summer. For two summers (2020 & 2021), the program was run as a completelyvirtual REU due to institutional constraints on visiting researchers due to the pandemic, as the nature ofsystems bioengineering and BDS research enables it to be conducted outside a laboratory setting. Toassess the program each year, we analyzed participant demographics, outcomes in presenting andpublishing their work, career outcomes, exit interviews, and anonymous survey

historical tropes used to marginalizeLatino communities in the U.S. Southwest [7, 23, 24], demonstrating that they have not beeneliminated. All of the participants (22 participants that have been followed longitudinally for thepast 4 years) in this study reported feeling marginalized within their engineering programs,where they were frequently viewed through the lens of academic “deficits” communicated tothem through verbal and non-verbal microaggressions [5]. These students often faced subtle yetpervasive stereotypes, including assumptions about their academic abilities, work ethic, andcommitment to completing their degrees. This racialized lens not only undermines students’confidence but also contributes to a sense of alienation and exclusion

By unpacking the experiences of undergraduate Black women in STEM, we can betterunderstand how to define interruption, and how these repeated interruptions by peers, professors,and themselves, lead to so many Black women leaving STEM fields.AcknowledgementsThis material is based

More recently human centered design and increasedadoption of socio-technical perspectives brings in elements of sustainability, ethics, and globalchallenges. These shifts have put more emphasis on teamwork, communication skills, andcollaboration; the so-called transferable or professional skills. The range of methodologies—design thinking methods such as IDEO, use of simulation tools, system engineering for larger-scale projects, lifecycle assessments that emphasize environmental aspects, agile methods topromote iterative prototyping and adaptability—enables design to be adapted to many

They also reported a deeper understanding of community issues andthe tangible impact their contributions had on those communities. These outcomes are consistentwith previous research as to the benefits of service learning for STEM students [11]. Moreover,this project experience may prompt students to keep humanity and ethics in mind while theypursue more technical courses and job roles [12]. “In addition to the STEM related skills I improved throughout this project, I also became
