Today’s modern world is moving at breakneck speed, but progress andchange in engineering education is not matching that same pace. Engineers constantly faceworkplace challenges such as rapid advancements in technology and the demands of changingworkplaces [1]. This necessitates innovative pedagogical advances that encourages creativity,problem solving, and learning independence. Educators must customize their classes to assiststudents to excel in jobs available in today's market, but also jobs that might not yet exist. Thedesired end goal

The curriculum for these pathways can be adopted fromcommercial providers or locally developed by school districts. Project Lead the Way (PLTW)Engineering is a curriculum that can be adopted by schools in Texas to fulfill the EngineeringSTEM pathway. This study followed cohorts of PLTW students to determine what impact, ifany
scholarship program. The project builds on prior research suggesting thataffective factors including sense of belonging, identity, and self-efficacy play important yet notfully understood roles in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students’academic persistence and successful progression toward careers, and that these factors can proveparticularly influential for individuals from groups that have been historically marginalized inSTEM [1]-[6]. Prior studies conducted as part of this research project have demonstrated impactsof Scholars’ math-related experiences on their developing identities [7] and found that structuresassociated with the scholarship program helped support Scholars’ developing sense of belongingdespite the shift
