Education, 2025 Supporting Engineering Graduate Students to Create Inclusive Learning Environments: A Professional Development Program at a Hispanic-Serving Institution Keywords: Graduate, undergraduate, engineering IntroductionIncreasing diversity and equity remains a national goal for STEM (science, technology,engineering, and mathematics) education in the United States [1], as men and white individualscontinue to receive a disproportionate share of STEM bachelor's degrees and are overrepresentedin the national STEM workforce [2]. Creating cultures of inclusion at institutions and withinSTEM departments and classrooms is vital for the success of

AtBinghamton University, only about 26% of undergraduate engineering students identify aswomen, highlighting the need for this research.In a 2020 article in the International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning, Al Mulhimet al. extensively explored how group size directly impacts student success in projects and finalgrades. The study compared large groups (7-8 people) and smaller groups (3-4 people), findingthat students generally perceived larger groups more positively and tended to perform better.However, the paper emphasizes that other underlying factors contribute to the success

These include increasedinstructor workload and technological issues. Significant time requirements are required forinstructors to review pre-class assignments and adjust lessons plans with limited time [10]. Theincreasing use of learning management systems (LMS) enhances evaluation and turnaround time.However, technical issues (i.e., incorporating images, videos, audio, and interactive elements)and student access must be considered.
