The papercontextualizes its study within a new TA professional development course, designed forfirst-time TAs to practice skills for teaching technical curriculum alongside those for developinginclusive classrooms. The course itself is an implementation of responsible data sciencecurriculum; it leverages culturally relevant pedagogy and growth-oriented educationalframeworks to deliver both practical pedagogical training and reflective reading and writingactivities.

The engagement in learning, retention in college, and careerpreparedness of students can be positively affected by participating in UGR. Studies show thatUGR helps students clarify career goals [1], foster a sense of identity as scientists or engineers[2], and build resilience [3]. Additionally, UGR serves as a valuable ecosystem for preparingfuture graduate students and enhancing research lab productivity

To address these evolving demands, this initiative focuses on unitingfaculty around shared pedagogical goals and enhancing the student learning experience through acohesive “design spine” [2,3]. At the heart of this effort is the recognition that engineeringproblems rarely have singular solutions, requiring a balance between technical rigor and human-centered approaches.

decline to an underemphasis of engineering programs on policyimplications, and ethical and social issues. This finding, however, also points to the possibility ofturning students’ apathy into engagement through curricular changes. For example, Agrawal andHeydenrych [15] note how a community-driven course project helped students more criticallyconsider the impact of engineering developments on the health and welfare of communitymembers. At a larger scale, Cech and Finneli [16] show that engineering students who receivedtraining pertaining to public welfare responsibilities in engineering classes are more likely tohave an expansive understanding of these responsibilities in their workplace.
