Regardless of classification, there is clear evidencethat MEOs support the achievement of minority students pursuing technical majors.How MEOs contribute to the success of URMs in engineering and other technical majorsSuccess for undergraduates in engineering culminates in the completion of the bachelor’s degree.To arrive at that point, minority students must overcome the many structural, institutional, andpecuniary challenges that so often deter their peers. Although there are many critical points in anacademic career at which minority students are discouraged from becoming engineers, most
