Group projects are used frequently to provide similar learning environments that capitalize on the benefits of peer-to-peer instruction and cooperative learning. The challenge is presented, the students are put on teams, and then the work begins.

Furthermore, there is additionalstudent engagement as they are able to actually meet with the instructors of the course as well astheir peers in the class. Webb et. al.

Due to their effectiveness, hands-on design projects areimplemented in numerous design courses across the world [3].Using 3D printing as an option allows students a technical method to prototype that is moreadvanced than simple low-fidelity models, but also safer and more accessible than constructingprototypes in a machine shop. As a result, 3D printing is used in a variety of design coursesincluding high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels of STEM education [4-6].Incorporating 3D printing into a course allows students to build upon critical thinking andproblem solving, as well as increasing writing and speaking skills [4].

In contrast to undergraduate engineering students who predominantlytake classes, however, senior doctoral and post-doctoral engineering students spend the majorityof their time in a “lab” environment—i.e., the environment of the research group, whethercomputational or experimental. Therefore, to create a warmer climate for these students andmitigate the drastic drop-off of women from doctoral programs to faculty positions, here wefocus on promoting a more inclusive lab culture.The pervasiveness of sexual
