For the STEM FHF program, these key learning communityfeatures were embodied in: 1) mentoring between faculty advisors and all members of thestudent cohort, 2) mentoring between undergraduate student fellows and graduate mentors, and3) partnerships built through collaboration with stakeholders from community leaders andbusinesses in the direct community. The conceptualization of these interactions is featured inFigure 1 and inspired by the literature on high-impact practices, anti-deficit pedagogy, andinclusive learning [3], [5]-[7

Lack of engagement around social issues can cause situationsof environmental injustice to be perpetuated in engineered systems [12]. Still, in manyengineering programs, “engineering neutrality” in design is a defined part of the curriculum, andstudents are explicitly taught to depoliticize their engineering solutions [15]. By depoliticizingengineering, students focus only on the technical aspects of a project and not the socialimplications. This pedagogical choice ultimately negatively impacts the engineering profession.Focusing on social and environmental justice in engineering
