consistently positive, it also served as a perfect trainingopportunity for work ethic, responsibility, and accountability.Through the Summer 2020 virtual SRI program, the project management team learned severalimportant lessons to run a virtual summer research program. It is very important to have a clearand consistent program schedule. Most of our SRI daily activities were scheduled at the sametime every day. Clear and frequent communication with the participants is imperative before theprogram starts, to discuss the program design and emphasize the responsibilities of theparticipants. Open and smooth communication is also necessary among the project managementteam, faculty advisors, graduate student mentors, and SRI participants throughout the

In addition toresearch hours, students are required to attend monthly professional development sessionsfocused on best practices in research, program deliverables, and community building. Exampletopics include maximizing your research experience, communication, research ethics, academicwriting, poster design, and an overview to graduate school. At the conclusion of the program,students are required to present their research as a poster and write an associated researchabstract.To apply for the program, students connect with a faculty member and write a short 1 to 2 pageresearch proposal describing the type of work they will be doing, the importance of the research,and a

For the students who were unable to obtain sufficient parental support, they refusedto seek outside assistance, which led to doubt in their ability to succeed.Academic Socialization and STEM Identity FormationBlack women's confidence in their abilities enables them to develop academic competency andbuild their STEM identities7,8.
