In this paper, we draw on Anzalda's conocimiento framework to examine 22 Latino/a/x undergraduate students' trajectories to and through engineering education at four university campuses.Findings show that these students have encountered an array of racial stereotypes about Latinos/as/xs, grappled with the lack of representation of Latino/a/x students and faculty in their departments, and been subject to racial microaggressions.Our findings have implications for engineering education regarding the creation of policies and practices that set a welcoming culture for Latino/a/x students and challenge oppressing practices in engineering
