Our experience indicates that an online BS pathway attracts adiverse range of students who are traditional underserved by engineering education as discussedin section 4. This paper also documents our outreach approach (section 2) and student success(section 5).As the background on the program, the department offers a BS in Industrial Engineering, a BS inIndustrial Technology, a MS in Engineering (Non-thesis), a MS in Engineering Science, a MS inEngineering Management, and a Doctor of Engineering degree.

However, given than many already perceivethat STEM subjects are too hard to begin with make it even more difficult for teachers trying toeducate and inspire students in a virtual environment. Taking all this into consideration, it isimperative for faculty to effectively plan an outreach that provides an environment for studentsto feel comfortable venturing into fields of studies which they do not feel comfortable with.Building upon this current body of knowledge, our outreach plan sought to integrate necessaryaspects of teaching that would be fun

In the theory of planned behavior, the individual’s intention decideswhether or not they engage in a behavior or not [21]. Intention is influenced by three factors:attitude toward the behavior, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control [22].
