leadership skills by undergraduate engineering students is keyto a successful long-term career and has been highlighted by both the profession, academia andgovernment funding agencies as a critical need [1]. Increasing diversity and inclusion inleadership is also critical for technology companies as they become global enterprises [2].Research on pre-college variables on leadership skills of undergraduate engineering studentsfound that co-curricular experiences result in team-based leadership skill experiences forstudents. Underrepresented Minority (URM) students that participated in URM organizationsexpressed greater leadership skill development. However, “students’ precollege characteristicsand experiences have minimal contribution to students

and inhelping students to manage team conflicts. This is proving to be a powerful addition to DEIadvancement within the College of Engineering.Given the results to date, talks are now in progress with the University about expanding the trainingto other colleges and more staff within engineering. Several participants have expressed that thistraining program has changed how they interact with students for the better and that they are seeingpositive results from engaging in MI conversations with students. This is an exciting step in ourcultural journey.5 References[1] H.

relevant due to thepersistence of the field’s domination by men and masculinity. Mainstream discourseon gender in STEM, however, has been kept in a “black box” for decades according toAllison Phipps [1]. She states that the reliance on a simplistic gender binaryunaccompanied by racial, cultural, or sexual identity nuances may be undermining itsown political aims of gender equity. One large gap in our existing body of genderresearch and discourse is how the highly gendered landscape of engineeringeducation is experienced by those who are transgender or gender nonconforming(TGNC).[1] A.
