foster a sense of belonging withintheir chosen disciplines and the wider academic community [1-3]. Empirical studies byHanauer [4], Kaufman et al. [5], and Whitcomb et al. [6] have established that strong self-efficacy and a profound sense of belonging significantly enhance students' persistence in theirchosen career trajectories. This relationship is especially evident in Science, Technology,Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), where a heightened sense of belonging and elevatedself-efficacy are linked to superior academic achievements [7-8].Educators play a pivotal role in this dynamic, employing student-centered pedagogicalapproaches that include group work, reflective exercises, peer discussions, and constructivefeedback. These methods, as

Chen and Buell note that Asian(Americans) likely account for much of thescientific and intellectual advancements leading to and during the Technological Revolution overthe past century. In particular, Chen and Buell discuss how Asian(American) immigrant womenformed the backbone of the semiconductor industry by working in Silicon Valley-basedfactories, and Asian(American) men

engineers design technologies or solveproblems. Take for example the problematic use of face recognition technologies for policing ofcommunities of color [44]. These technologies are claimed to be race-neutral when they are, infact, aimed at defining what safety and security mean under the premise of benevolence but witha clear racial animus [44]. Adding to the list of colorblind ideologies in engineering spaces is that of enacting certainpractices in engineering classrooms in the name of pedagogical benefit or benevolence withoutquestioning racial bias. Some examples include placement of emergent bilinguals into LimitedEnglish Proficiency (LEP) programs where STEM education is seen as tangential from languageinstruction [45] rather than

revealedthat they struggle with internalizing the stigma of “deficient preparation and competence that theysensed was held by other students and by sometimes faculty, as well.” [20]. We feel that this mayprovide reasoning for why many students were reluctant to seek out help, struggled withengagement, and empathized with students who shared similar experiences.To address the need for support of low-income students in engineering, it is essential to firstunderstand how financial challenges can impact learning and engagement. Peña et al. compiled alist of ten rules for supporting low-income students in STEM (science, technology, engineering,and mathematics) [21]. In this context, the rules that would be beneficial given the patterns in thedata are

They can also design engineering projects that specifically address social disparities in access to technology and infrastructure, focusing on solutions that benefit underserved communities. Moreover, advocating for diversity and inclusion within the engineering profession is essential, requiring

abachelor’s degree or higher (National Center of Science and Engineering Statistics (NCSES),2023). Further, due to self-reporting of disability status in postsecondary education, it is possiblethat the number of students with disabilities attending two- and four-year schools, and thoseenrolled in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) programs areunderreported (Wolanin & Steele, 2004). Even taking non-disclosure into account, numberspresented here indicate that students with disabilities are indeed enrolling in postsecondaryeducation and are choosing to pursue an education in STEM fields. Unfortunately, thepersistence and retention rates of students with disabilities are lower than their non-disabledpeers (Coghill, 2020; Fleming

Students with ADHD experience bothstrengths (e.g., creativity, divergent thinking, high energy levels, and the ability to hyper-focuson tasks of interest) and challenges (e.g., executive functioning, time management, organization,and study skills). Many of these challenges might be due to deficit-focused mindset common insome higher education environments.

She is especially interested in how power relationships and rhetorical strategies affect group judgment in engineering design; one goal of this work is to to understand factors that inhibit full participation of students who identify with historically marginalized groups and investigate evidence-based strategies for mitigating these inequities.
