There is limited research on graduate studentretention, however, several studies suggest that factors such as financial support, mentoring,sense of community, and engagement in research and professional development opportunitiescan positively impact graduate student retention rates (e.g., Golde & Dore, 2001; Lovitts, 2001;Tinto, 1993).A condensed, thorough mentor model can be an effective way to improve graduatestudent retention in STEM fields.

The university atwhich we are implementing this initiative is a primarily white, private institution in the UnitedStates. We are also located in a state in which such topics are relatively open for discussion ineducational settings. Although the authors hold different identities in gender identity, race,ethnicity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and more, we are far from representative ofthe larger population and recognize the need for many more voices in this type of work.INTRODUCTIONEngineering and research have profound impacts on issues of

intended to give credit to the body of scholarship and research on which a new practiceis built as well as make a case for legitimacy for new work. Most universities require researchand publication of their faculty for tenure and promotion. To be successful in this process, acandidate needs to show impact. This impact is usually heavily based on citation metrics. Whilethere is a push from some, such as those in the open scholarship movement to change thispractice and put value on other metrics of impact [3], it remains a heavy driver at most academicinstitutions, meaning citation practices have broad impact on who gets recognition in academia[4]. In addition, research that is more heavily cited usually is regarded as more impactful and ismore

The practitioner of the program felt that if a presentation had to be done it would takethe GREaT GradS away from the lab. The GREaT GradS deliverables were designed to helpstudents think big picture about why they were in graduate school and how graduate schoolcould help them achieve their long-term professional goals. The students had three deliverablesto complete, which were (1) set up a LinkedIn profile, (2) send their resumé or CV to thecoordinator, and (3) conduct an informational interview. The objectives of completing thesedeliverables were to set the students up for professional and career success and not to beoverwhelmed during the summer

The tension of practicality alongside knowledge generation ispalpable in engineering research work, as engineering scientists often balance and blendpostpositivist and naturalistic approaches. Due to the applied nature of engineering research,engineering research work often takes a pragmatic approach, employing whatever epistemic andmethodological modes seem to best answer the question presented [54].Engineering Research FundingFunding availability and source hold a salient position in all threads of research work, and it is nodifferent for engineering.

for supporting S-STEM student retention and graduationA recent self-study at Stevens Institute of Technology revealed that our 2nd and 3rd year retention ratesfor low-income STEM students are lower than those for our non-low income STEM student body. Toaddress this finding, the goal of our S-STEM program is to implement evidence-based best practices toincrease retention and graduation rates of low-income academically talented STEM students to levels thatmatch our overall STEM population. To accomplish this goal, we are seeking to: 1. implement best-practices with regards to cohort development and faculty, peer, and alumni mentoring programs to support the ADAPT Scholars, 2. develop targeted enrichment and mentoring activities

Almost allparticipants mention an interest outside of engineering, fewer described this interest with adegree of commitment, and even fewer actually integrated this interest by pursuing it throughclasses, a minor, or a double major. A key reason for not doing so was the limitations of time intheir program and the fear it would impact their graduation time or cost them too much money.However, many participants had a math minor despite the lack of connection between it and theirinterests or goals.
