Figure 1 shows a summary of theactivities in a typical summer. For two summers (2020 & 2021), the program was run as a completelyvirtual REU due to institutional constraints on visiting researchers due to the pandemic, as the nature ofsystems bioengineering and BDS research enables it to be conducted outside a laboratory setting. Toassess the program each year, we analyzed participant demographics, outcomes in presenting andpublishing their work, career outcomes, exit interviews, and anonymous survey

historical tropes used to marginalizeLatino communities in the U.S. Southwest [7, 23, 24], demonstrating that they have not beeneliminated. All of the participants (22 participants that have been followed longitudinally for thepast 4 years) in this study reported feeling marginalized within their engineering programs,where they were frequently viewed through the lens of academic “deficits” communicated tothem through verbal and non-verbal microaggressions [5]. These students often faced subtle yetpervasive stereotypes, including assumptions about their academic abilities, work ethic, andcommitment to completing their degrees. This racialized lens not only undermines students’confidence but also contributes to a sense of alienation and exclusion

Most commonly cited skills by students in Service Learning inSTEM were the soft, or essential skills: communication, interpersonal skills, problem solving,teamwork, and leadership. They also reported a deeper understanding of community issues andthe tangible impact their contributions had on those communities. These outcomes are consistentwith previous research as to the benefits of service learning for STEM students [11]. Moreover,this project experience may prompt students to keep humanity and ethics in mind while theypursue more technical courses and job roles [12]. “In addition to the STEM related skills I improved throughout this project, I also became

We emphasize that the manner inwhich this overview is presented can differ across institutions and courses, and based on thespecific instructor’s goals. In all cases, however, the broad, cross-disciplinary nature of thetheme and its societal context should be emphasized.Stage 2: Definition/Problem RestatementFollowing the introduction of the theme, students reflect on what they have learned and thendefine the Challenge in their own words. This process engages the students as participants in theproblem-solving process; they must progress from the relatively passive experience of Stage 1 toan active consideration of the Challenge (i.e., what makes it a difficult
