mentorship and professional development strategies. Building on thisfoundation, the Expanded Network for BP-AE (ENBP-AE) program was established to extendthese efforts and scale the impact to a broader network of institutions and students.The ENBP-AE program strategically added five institutions selected based on the desire toincrease pathways into aerospace careers and existing faculty connections. Since the program’sexpansion, one of the added institutions has established an undergraduate program in aerospaceengineering, and a core institution has launched a graduate program in Aerospace Engineering,further enhancing the capacity for aerospace education within the network.The train-the-trainer mentorship model was pivotal for integrating these

there is to be a representative distribution of participants in the futureSTEM workforce. In this project, different types of learning modules have been designed toincrease students’ interest in STEM, especially Aerospace Engineering. Seven different types oflearning modules with a total of 12 options were developed. These learning modules were sharedwith high school teachers and community college faculty in settings where the majority ofstudents are Hispanics. The instructors then chose the best options for their classes. In this paper,the authors will introduce the designs of 12 learning modules and discuss feedback from courseinstructors and more than 200 students collected through post-surveys.

students, including women, underserved students of color, andlow-income learners [5], [6], [7].Community colleges provide an affordable entry point, yet many students struggle withprogression into advanced coursework [5], [8]. Policy and program leaders play a key role inmitigating these barriers through policy development, institutional partnerships, and strategicinitiatives [9]. Despite their impact, little research explores how policy and program leaders thinkabout achieving transfer objectives, particularly in STEM disciplines like engineering.This study addresses this gap using the collective impact framework [10], [11], [12] whichpromotes cross-sector collaboration through shared goals and coordinated actions to tacklesystemic challenges

, and belonging. Across all groups, college specific prejudice generallydeclined which suggests that the experiences of prejudice within the academic environmentdeclined over time across the whole group, and trends were the same within differentdemographic groups. A moderate decline in engineering specific social distance in online contextwas also observed but only for those experiencing mental health conditions. However, a decreasein engineering identity and engineering belonging were evident across gender, race, sexualorientation, and parental education level, suggesting a weak connection to the engineering fieldand its community over time. These patterns were particularly less pronounced or absent amonginternational students, likely due to a

Rather than operating as short-term, grant-funded efforts, these initiatives have been woven into the institution’s fabric in a waythat would require active removal to discontinue, demonstrating a strong commitment to theirlong-term viability. Key aspects of the ELC and its lasting impact include: • Multi-faceted Support System: Students benefit from an academic and co-curricular support structure designed to remove obstacles and increase graduation rates. • Engineering Learning Community (ELC): By fostering a shared learning experience, students develop a stronger STEM identity and build peer networks that contribute to their success. • Leadership and
