studying Human and Social Dimensions of Science and Technology in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society in ASU’s College of Global Futures. She practices Socio-technical Integration Research as an embedded social scientist who collaboratively works with technologists (STEM students, STEM faculty, and Tech Com- panies) to increase reflexive learning during technology development and implementation to pro-actively consider the impact of technology decisions on local communities and society at large. This work creates spaces and processes to explore technology innovation and its consequences in an open, inclusive and timely way.Mara Lopez, Arizona State University Dr. Mara Lopez is a full-time Research

during transfer process • DemographicsThe survey data (n=11 for pre-transfer survey, n=33 for post-transfer survey) were anonymized bytwo of the non-faculty project members. Survey responses from different sections were separatedand randomized so that demographic variables could not be connected with other responses. Forthe post-transfer survey, students came from a variety of 2-year colleges including but not limitedto Highline. Many students have taken classes at multiple 2-year colleges. For this paper we willshare some findings related to our initial focus areas on advising, and recruitment and enrollmentincluding influences on students’ decisions to pursue engineering as a major, whether studentshad an advisor-verified academic plan

pipeline of capable future leaders [4]. Mentoring,which is integral to the Mentor-Connect project, contributes to leadership development forSTEM faculty whose students are enrolled in technician education programs that are critical tonational security and prosperity.Through Mentor-Connect, new educators have been brought into the system, professionallydeveloped through the process of designing and implementing projects to improve technicianeducation, and mentored by those with years of experience in crafting successful ATE grantproposals. This paper explores the Mentor-Connect intervention, now in its 11th year, outcomesthat have resulted and for whom, and the opportunity Mentor-Connect represents for two-yearcollege advanced technology programs
