Summary:The retention of students in STEM degree pathways continues to be a problem in higher education, particularly for students from minority groups. Addressing this is of the utmost importance in recruiting and retaining high-quality individuals for the 21st-century STEM workforce and, perhaps more importantly, helping all students who are passionate about STEM achieve their career goals. It is in this context that this Special Issue of Education Sciences was conceived. “Engaged Student Learning and Inclusive Teaching in Higher Education Chemistry” presents 10 articles on how student engagement can be improved in higher education chemistry courses, potentially impacting retention and success in STEM pathways, and interventions to improve outcomes more directly for historically disadvantaged demographic groups.
