The peer support is extended at the end of the REUexperience, as students come together at one of the network sites to present their research andposters via virtual and in-person means; they also tour the facilities to learn more about thevarious aspects of research outside of their assigned REU site. Overall, students show an increasein the research skills gained throughout the REU program. The students are monitoredlongitudinally to learn more about their career paths after they exit the REU program.BackgroundThere continues to be a great need to encourage and prepare a diverse group of undergraduateengineering students to persist in their degree programs and, ultimately

EducationAbstract—Women and minortized groups share a common sense of belonging or, moreaccurately, lack of a sense of belonging in STEM, which exacerbates their underrepresentation inSTEM education and careers. Furthermore, an abundance of literature demonstrates that thisshared lack of belonging negatively influences their academic performance and persistence. Inengineering education specifically, research indicates that a lack of belonging contributes toundergraduate student attrition regardless of gender and race/ethnicity.Therefore, we proposed a project entitled “Promoviendo el Éxito Estudiantil a través de unSistema de Apoyo (PromESA): Promoting Student Success through a Social, Academic, andInstitutional Support System in Engineering Education

Women's sense of belonging is crucialto higher education institutions, especially in highly masculinized careers such as engineering.It increases academic motivation and can influence their success in higher education.However, statistics worldwide show that the increase in the sense of belonging and, thus, inthe participation of women in STEM areas has not risen enough to reduce the gender gap. Inthe current research work, we present data collected over one semester in an EngineeringSchool at a large private university in Chile. Our main objective is to diagnose and analyzethe students' sense of belonging in social and academic areas, their self-efficacy, andperceived institutional support from a gender perspective.

In [1], two academic factors are identified that impact studentretention in engineering programs, namely: (1) difficulty of the curriculum and (2) poor teachingand advising.

Traditionally, women areexpected to undertake a heavy burden of domestic work while playing the primary careprovider for educating and nurturing children in many cultures [5]. Women are much lesslikely aspired than men to develop career in masculine discipline if they anticipate futuredifficulties in pursuing and advancing careers [6]. Based on evidence suggested in theexisting literature, validations on whether women’s lower representation in STEM is causedby their obligations and unavoidable conflicts of undertaking multiple demanding roles andresponsibilities both at work and at home are valuable. More importantly, it is important toknow how female faculty of STEM perceive and negotiate their

To counteractthis decline in interest, researchers have found a link between consistent engagement in anafterschool STEM program with an improved interest in STEM [3] [4]. However, attendance inan out-of-school (OST) program is often sporadic [5], and the duration of programs varieswidely [6].
