As discussed in Part 1, these purposes included: increasing awareness ofengineering, promoting engineering in the K-12 classroom, increasing diversity in engineering, andincreasing recruitment for the host institution.The table below shows correlations between types of events and these four purposes. Keep in mind thata single program might be reported as serving multiple purposes. To calculate the correlations, wegrouped responses by purpose and then totaled the programs reporting each type of event within eachgroup. The correlation value is the second number divided by the first number. For example, 44programs reported doing exposure events among the 65 programs working to promote awareness ofengineering.
