The proposed process increases the population of students with the potential tosucceed, thereby increasing university retention rates. An extensive review on success andretention strategies that benefit not only minorities in Science, Technology, Engineering, andMathematics but all students is provided. This process better assesses applicants from differingbackground and has the effect of increasing the population of minority students.In addition to the socio-economic based

Therefore, it is important that institutes of highereducation support students succeeding in STEM education by completions of STEM degrees.Advancing STEM education plays a fundamental role in improving student learning in STEMfields and, in turn, can enhance the production of STEM graduates. By investigating STEMeducation at colleges and universities, we can expose areas of needed improvement and enableprograms to become more effective and efficient. If the field of engineering wishes to broadenparticipation, it is imperative that such efforts include institutions

Residential Summer Program for Underrepresented High School StudentsIntroductionThe educational achievement gap in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics(STEM) disciplines in America continue to persist among underrepresented groups [7].Underrepresented groups include Hispanics, African American, Native American, andNative Hawaiian students. While underrepresented student enrollment has beenincreasing in secondary schools, the achievement gap in STEM widens as students’progress from kindergarten to high school [5]. Underrepresented minority students facemore barriers from persistence to graduation [3]. The achievement gap is compoundedover time and when underrepresented students reach high school, they are not prepared totake the

The present study examines young students’ perceptions, of notonly engineering careers broadly, but also how students perceive career opportunities inelectricity and energy fields. This study explored the following research questions:1) Are there gender differences in engineering and electricity/energy career interests for youth ingrades 4-6?2.) Does an interest in engineering correlate with career aspirations in engineering or careeraspirations related to energy and electricity?3.) Do the factors of self-efficacy, outcome expectations, interests, and goals predict

His parents feared buying him new pieces of technology because inevitably they would end in pieces on a work bench next to a kid with a smile on. Once accepted to the USCGA Shane took his curiosity to the classroom and began his studies within the EE major. After an antennas course his junior year he found himself perplexed at the intricacies of this field of study. He then pursued an internship at MIT
