]. Despite their prevalence in engineering programs, there has been relativelylimited investigation of how students perceive and utilize office hours, particularly at largeresearch-intensive universities where core-curriculum class sizes tend to be substantial [6], [7],[8], [9].The efficacy of office hours is especially relevant in biomedical engineering programs, wherestudents must master complex interdisciplinary content while developing professionalcompetencies [5], [8], [10]. The integration of biological and engineering principles presentsunique challenges that may require additional support and clarification outside of regular classtime [9], [11], [12].

gender presentation (asindicated by preferred pronouns).Despite individual variability in TPI responses, no statistically significant differences were foundbetween engineering and non-engineering students in terms of their dominant or recessiveperspectives, as well as their perspective-specific beliefs, intentions, or actions. These resultssuggest that interdisciplinary, centralized teaching training programs, even when not discipline-specific, can be a valuable experience for graduate students. The study highlights the TPI’spotential as a useful tool in teaching development and underscores the broader applicability ofgeneral pedagogical training across fields.IntroductionGraduate training is an expectation of most faculty in the United States

starting point for a Holistic Design Thinking (HDT) methodology[20], [30]. Grounded in a pedagogy of transdisciplinary knowledge and holistic practice [20], thismethodology challenges traditional engineering education by positioning love, its attributes, andrelated ethical commitments as both the starting point and the guiding core of the designmethodology taught and practiced by students.HDT integrates these principles within a continuous, cyclical relationship—acknowledging thatdesign is not a linear progression, but an ongoing process of reflection, evaluation, andadaptation based on interaction. Its framework is responsive to both human and ecological needs.It invites students to engage through iterative cycles of experience, reflection

discussed as a critical area to integrate the operator 4.0/5.0 research space[7]. One way to advance such work is to improve decision support, communication and mutualunderstanding between operators and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) users throughoutthe DED process.CAM user strategies, particularly for convergent DED, rely on operator input due to processcomplexity [8]. Operator experience leads to critical intuition with certain system constraints,design features and materials. For example, an operator might influence the decision at which pointin the process to transition from additive to subtractive processes, in order to maintain tool reachand access to unique or internal features [8]. Additionally, an operator might discuss situations
