practice of innovation acrossinstitutional boundaries, would effectively prepare the next generation of innovators andengineers to address systemic and institutional racism and whiteness within STEM. One of theways we wanted to tackle this was by community engagement. Community engagement insome phases of engineering projects is known worldwide. However, community engagement inall phases, including the grant writing process, is minimal.This STEM-focused community-engaged project involves two institutions, including apredominately white institution (PWI) and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU).These institutions are working together for a common and beneficial goal of creating change ina community, a platform for collaboration and

It was also noted that often transfer support comes most in thepre-transfer phase but that student support should be provided across three points: pre-transfer,pre-enrollment, and first term post-transfer [6]. Similarly related to student support isengagement.

Research has shown that faculty interested in pedagogical transformation areoften overwhelmed by the many tools, frameworks, and theories available [13]. One of theobjectives of this paper is to remove this burden on faculty and instructors by providing themwith an organized checklist of inclusive teaching practices stemming from variedframeworks, along with some easy-to-use resources, strategies, and examples, all in a singleresource. Further, our inclusive course design checklist is organized around the variouscomponents of teaching (e.g., writing the syllabus, selecting/training TAs, etc.) so it is (wehope) more pragmatic, accessible, and implementation-ready to educators, all the

The gap also existed as some studentshave limited vision about their role and dream jobs upon finishing their high school degree [25].Another critical reason that plays a significant role in increasing the gap between academia andindustry is the lack of engineering students seeing the classroom as something that can help themimprove their overall skills and abilities [16], [19].3.

Due to this, many become the victim of the impact maximisationdescribed above as a result. Even though our approaches make sense at the course level, at acurriculum level there is too little variation to challenge them in their choices.Another recent development found within the Netherlands is the introduction of the ReflectiveEngineer.

Furthermore, the (self) reflection will help students make more deliberatechoices concerning their
