education scholarship has shifted. Engineering education research has emerged as a legitimateform of academic scholarship [1]. Meanwhile, many chemical engineering programs have shiftedto greater emphasis on research productivity, and professional track faculty have emerged as animportant resource in delivering high quality instruction to larger and larger class sizes [2].Additionally, new challenges continue to face the field, including shifting undergraduateenrollments [3], the need to prepare graduates to use new technologies and address emergingdirections in the field [4], and continued calls for an engineering education that leveragesresearch-based practices and supports equity [5,6].In light of this changing landscape, an ad hoc committee was

Grow Relationships – Relationships represent the foundation upon which an inclusive classroom climate sits. Such relationships include both faculty-student and student-student interactions. Additionally, relationships are drastically affected by the expectations that are communicated and modeled throughout the course. Thus, the first principle is aimed at establishing a “learner- centered” classroom climate by promoting meaningful positive relationships. a.

asked to discuss a scenario where they were tasked with developing aproduct - specifically to develop the latest voice recognition technology for a product consumerscan wear as a ring. Students were asked to consider one of the initial steps within the productdevelopment process. This required them to consider the populations from which engineers needto seek input in the early stages of the technology and ring prototypes. The students thenresponded to a second electronic poll inquiring about the career readiness competencies that aremost necessary for this stage of their product design, which leads to a discussion about the socialand non-technical competencies that are so critical in early stages of a project.

which their design takes place and consider different sociotechnical possibilities(Cech, 2013; Riley 2008). They must engage in expansive thinking, which entails breaking freefrom “status quo narratives and attend[ing] to science and technology from a human-centered,systems-level perspective” (Radoff et al, 2022, p. 2). This breaking free requires engineeringstudents to rethink what socio-political and economic values and perspectives are being includedin engineering from the standpoint of social justice and equity. For students, opportunities toquestion dominant narratives and values prevalent in engineering design can prompt acutefeelings of uncertainty around the process and outcomes of engineering work (Baillie &Armstrong, 2013).In our
