Provide a toolbox of resources to guide collaboration and partnerships at their respective institutions, with partners, and with each other (broader impact/broadening participation, proposal development, writing research papers, etc.). b. Expand PEERs’ understanding of national funding opportunities aligned with their institutional goals (NSF grants, national education grants, industry grants, etc). 1017

Specifically, the workshop was designed to:1.Use ASEE journal solicitations to contextualize content;2.Challenge teams to draft

higher education, have explicitlyshown how Asian American students differ from their peers, engineering education researchshould continue to follow this trend. When Asian Americans are disaggregated by subgroups, wesee differences in outcomes of classroom engagement [6], which could help educators addresscultural differences in the classroom. Future research should continue to include and highlightdifferences between various ethnic groups in engineering rather than assume Asian American asa singular group which most of the articles we found do.The vast majority of the 138 papers that appeared in the initial search results did not meet at leasttwo of the inclusion/exclusion criteria, despite the term “Asian American students” in eithertheir
engineering discipline [3]. This critical transition has gained particular attention in engineering education as aneffort to promote student success and retention in the discipline [4], [5]. Engineering studentsupport centers offer engagement opportunities for students that range from mentorship programsand seminars courses to living learning communities, all of which typically begin during the firstsemester of the academic year [5]–[7]. An overarching goal for these programs is to get studentsinvolved early and help them create social and academic connections with peers, upperclassmen, 1faculty, and staff at the university in an effort to improve

population that ought to be explored (Gardner & Gopaul, 2012). Of the research on part-time doctoral students, these students have been shown to be lessengaged in their studies, less satisfied with their Ph.D. experiences and viewed as less motivatedthan their full-time student peers (Gardner & Gopaul, 2012). Studies have found factors that limitthe participation of these part-time students include socialization barriers, structural constraints,negative encounters, feelings of otherness, feelings of being treated less favorably thantraditional students, longer completion time, and beliefs of not having the same opportunities astheir peers (Graham & Massyn, 2019, p.192). Furthermore, part-time students are less likely tobe

The initial inclusion criteria forparticipants to be interviewed were as follows: (1) they had to identify as Black, and (2) be agraduate student currently enrolled in a doctoral program in engineering at a predominatelywhite institution in the United States, and (3) have engaged in either NSBE and/or BGLOs as anundergraduate student. A total of 37 interviews were collected from Black graduate students across the nation.Interviews were initiated with a prompt asking participants to share their experiences navigatingengineering through undergraduate and graduate school. Participants were encouraged to reflecton how perceived facets of their identity and engagement with

They were each coded twice – once withnarrative coding and then again with thematic coding.The Narrative codes included structures of storytelling such as aspects of plot such as conflict and resolutions,setting, and characters. Characters in the stories included the students, their home communities, elders & mentorson campus, peers, and the structures themselves.The thematic coding utilized the nine tenets of TribalCrit to determine which showed up in the stories ofIndigenous engineering students and determined
).Each LC ideally consists of three change leader teams (CLTs). CLTs are matched based onsimilarity in institutional and program context to facilitate learning from each other’sexperiences. An Extension Services facilitator leads teams through a series of approximately 12monthly online meetings aligned with an academic calendar. During the online meetings, CLTsbuild community with peers, share knowledge, explore ideas, and support each other’s planningand implementation. Meeting topics, which are aligned with the Undergraduate Systemic ChangeModel, provide CLTs with knowledge to conduct self-assessment, develop strategic recruitmentand retention plans, and utilize evaluation data. Outside of the online meetings, an ExtensionServices Consultant
