This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the CFDA Program 47.041 Engineering aims to enhance "servingness" at Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs) and beyond by creating an identity-affirming culture in engineering education. The $342,108 project, running from October 1, 2024 to April 25, 2025, will engage Hispanic, Latinx/e/a/o, Xicanx/e/a/o (HLX+) undergraduate engineering students in an autoethnographic program to explore their cultural, community, racial, and ethnic (CCORE) values and how they navigate conflicts with these values in their engineering education. The research findings will be used to develop a workshop to inspire and aid faculty in creating an identity-affirming culture within their research teams, classes, departments, and beyond. The ultimate goals are to empower students to disrupt hegemonic engineering education structures, dismantle cultural barriers discouraging HMM participation, and transform the dominant engineering culture by inspiring radically inclusive values, particularly among faculty and HLX+ students.
