researchers have long been siloed into their own areas of research expertise, such thatcollaborations often occur with researchers in the same or adjacent fields. Yet, the challengesfacing the world require solutions that do not exist within one disciplinary silo and requirecreative solutions that reach across the boundaries of science, technology, engineering, arts, andmathematics (STEAM) disciplines. One way creativity is sparked is through interdisciplinarycollaborations. When conflicting perspectives on a given topic are presented, people seek toovercome these conflicts and through this process, creative solutions can emerge.

These technocratic ideologies inform common assumptions (e.g., theunproblematic goodness of technological advancement, or the singular qualification of technicalexperts to inform technological development) by constraining engineers’ socio-technicalimaginaries, or their particular senses of self, relation to others, and acceptable norms which,once adapted, are taken “as natural, the only vision of social life possible” [7]. In this way,technocratic ideologies obscure the profound entanglement of technology with systems ofoppression (e.g., capitalism or white supremacy) [10].

Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.

These emerging studies suggest that the LGBTQ+ community ismarginalized and that the LGBTQ+ community should be included in efforts to broaden participation inSTEM.Suitably, the number of grants awarded to study and support the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender,and queer (LGBTQ+) community in STEM fields has grown over the past few decades.

As a result, more institutions are placing a highervalue on first-year engineering introductory courses, a key component of retention at theundergraduate level [1].However, with engineering being an incredibly broad field, there is relatively little agreementfrom institution to institution, and often from department to department within the same college,on the content and skills to address in a first-year course [2, 3
