In response, students are calling for AIliteracy to be integrated into their higher education curricula to better prepare for the challengesof the intelligent era and future careers. For instance, a survey on the use of generative AIamong undergraduates [6], found that students most commonly recommended offering relevantcourses and lectures, with a particular focus on

In response,Black faculty mentors apply social empathic and equity ethic practices in their mentoringapproaches, which builds trust and rapport with students [6]. As a result, Black faculty mentors areflooded with a disproportionate number of requests from students as well as institutions toparticipate in formal and informal diversity-related service as compared with their Whitecounterparts [6]. However, there is still an overall lack of knowledge of the types of asset-basedstrategies used by Black faculty mentors [8]-[10] in lieu of their cultural taxation [6] and howprofessional development can be used

This research was designed to help fill this gap in the field, focusing on three keyresearch questions: (1) How do undergraduate engineering instructors describe their teachinggoals and practices?; (2) How do undergraduate engineering instructors describe their teachinggoals and practices with respect to exploring the relationship between engineering, society andthe environment (i.e. STSE)?; and (3) What are the specific challenges or enabling factors inexploring the relationship between engineering, society
