both subtle and overt discrimination[6] - [10]. Several strategies have been implemented to improve this culture, for example byestablishing peer mentoring programs [11] - [15] or creating more inclusive classroomenvironments [16] - [20]. 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

Undergraduate research experience was also found to better equip students for graduateschool or careers (Sell, Naginey, & Stanton, 2017; Altman, et al., 2019). Through undergraduateresearch, students learn professional skills such as maintaining notes, identifying researchproblems, reading scientific literature, collaborating with peers in a research setting, and writingand presenting findings to an audience in their field of discipline (Carpenter & Pappenfus, 2009).Undergraduate research is said to be one of ten high impact practices shown to enhance andimprove college student performance and success (Kuh, 2008).

This effectively excludes students who are not good at working in that mode.Inclusive systems seek to remove barriers and provide the means for educating ALLstudents with high quality instruction, interventions, and support such that all studentshave the opportunity to be successful.

Despite Black andHispanic students declaring STEM majors at the same rate as their white peers, they are pushedout of STEM at disproportionate rates regardless of academic preparation, intellectual ability, ortheir affinity for STEM [8], [17],[18].

In past research and curriculum development, engineering teachers haveimplemented curriculum around STEM-focused games [1], such as for urban planning [2],transportation engineering [1], chemistry education [3] and computational thinking [4]. Due tothe increased interactive engagement of games compared to lecture [5], [6], [7], engineeringeducators have utilized games to positively impact students' learning. However, theseeducational games are often only available in English. Students whose first language (L1) is notEnglish may be limited in how they present their ideas to peers in these playful spaces

Through the1980s, writers such as Audre Lorde and Patricia Hill Collins highlighted the multitude of waysthat intersecting identities gave rise to unique, interlocking, and intersectional forms ofoppression [14], [15]. These writings brought intersectionality to the center of activist thought,challenging the previously single-issue politics of groups such as the civil rights movement, thegay/lesbian liberation movement, and second-wave feminism.

It is also addressing how best to build a different type of team with R1schools, industry, and other external constituencies.
