bachelor’s degrees in engineering has increased in the last decade;however, the growth has been slow, increasing from 17.8% in 2010 to 22.5% in 2019 [4].Additionally, the percentage of Blacks or African Americans earning bachelor’s degrees inengineering has remained around 4.2% since 2011. With women making up 50.8% of thepopulation and Blacks or African Americans making up 13.4% of the population [5], the severityof the underrepresentation is clear. Since it is not reasonable to expect to build demographicallydiverse teams, engineering educators must work to build capacity for diversity by cultivatinginclusive cultures and curricula [6], [7].Building inclusive classrooms is one component of building culture [8].

Scholars have also mentioned the closely-relatedconceptualizations of sustainable design [27] and, more explicitly, empathic design [28].In this review, we sought to explore what empirical evidence exists for cultivating empathy, andwhich learning activities or pedagogical approaches can be used for its development in STEMstudents. While we do examine how some of these other concepts related to empathy wereintegrated into educational contexts, empathy remained at the forefront of our inquiry.3 Theoretical FrameworkIn 2019, Stanford psychologist Jamil Zaki published The War For Kindness: Building Empathy InA Fractured World [29

researched inengineering education. Numerous studies have revealed that engineering recognition is connectedto increased student retention and an engineering student’s developing sense of belonging (Cribbset al., 2016; Hatmaker, 2013; Rover, 2008; Wang & Hazari, 2018). Additionally, recognition isinvaluable because of its capability to demonstrate how students form relationships withinengineering, its ability to verify the other two components of engineering identity, competencyand performance, and its ability to shed light on the experiences of underrepresented andmarginalized students in STEM (Carlone & Johnson, 2007; Rodriquez et al., 2017; Rohde et al.,2019).

Given that underrepresented groups in engineering also are included in thefastest-growing subpopulations within the United States, it is important for the field to bettermirror the demographics it serves.

; Ozkan, 2021). Problems areoften presented free of broader contexts in which the concepts might apply, and they ask studentsto employ complex math and physics concepts to scenarios that might bear little, if any,resemblance to the real world or their lived experiences. Such issues can present challenges forstudents as they struggle to understand the relevance or application of the concepts they arelearning both within their lives and the engineering profession more broadly. Without makingmeaningful connections between their lived experiences and the content they are learning,engineering students can lose motivation and expectations for success in their academic andprofessional careers (Kosovich, Hulleman, Phelps, & Lee, 2019).One way that

]. Lizotte andClifford Simplican called for future research to prioritize graduate students with invisibledisabilities (e.g., psychiatric disabilities, autism, and brain injuries) [3]. Yet, very little researchhas been done on students with invisible disabilities [5].A dearth of knowledge on graduate students with disabilities was identified in a 2017 literaturereview [3]. Subsequently, the gap in the literature on university students with disabilities inresearch roles was identified in a 2019 literature review [1]. It is essential to include allindividuals who can contribute to research, especially those from diverse backgrounds andabilities [10]. Yet, individuals with disabilities continue to be excluded from academia. Thecurrent literature
