Co-curricular and informal learning opportunities can provide students access to expert thinking intheir disciplines, and can improve retention in the sciences [3]. S-STEM scholarship programswere designed to provide curricular, co-curricular, and financial support to students withfinancial need who are underrepresented in STEM fields. Results from S-STEM programindicate scholars experience greater retention and higher achievement than their peers, [4,5,6] yetlittle is known about how S-STEM scholarship programs shape students’ professional identitiesin their fields.The Cybersecurity National Science Foundation S-STEM scholarship project is a joint effortbetween two- year and four-year
