SCSU-STEM enhanced the ability of underrepresented, academically talented andfinancially needy students to complete high-quality computing or engineering degree programand aimed at strengthening the STEM workforce and its leadership. It provided a significantchange in the award recipient lives, retain in their disciplines and graduate on time. The SCSU-STEM scholars were recruited at the junior level including transfer students. Full-time facultymentors provided academic advising. Scholars participated in research and senior design projectswith peer and graduate assistant support. They also completed internships

STEM Students (SAMS)program seeks to attract local, highly motivated, needy students that demonstrate an aptitude forSTEM careers, while focusing on under-represented minorities in STEM disciplines.GoalsThe SAMS program provides up to 120 scholarships for academically talented full-time STEMstudents who have a demonstrated financial need. The program allows students to successfullygraduate and/or transfer to 4-year institutions in STEM fields. The program has a five-yearduration, and is now completing its third year. The objectives of the program are to: 1) retain atleast 75% of the scholars for the duration of the grant; 2) have 50% of the scholars beunderrepresented minorities (URMs) or women in STEM disciplines; 3) have the scholars

engineering.IntroductionDespite gender similarities in mathematics and science achievement, women continue to beunderrepresented in STEM education and careers [1]-[3]. Of the 108,969 bachelor’s degrees inengineering awarded in 2013-2014, 20,031 (18.4%) were awarded to women [4]. Between 2000and 2013, the proportion of science and engineering bachelor’s degrees in all fields awarded towomen remained mostly flat with declines in computer science (10%), mathematics and statistics(5%), physics (3%), and engineering (1%) [5]. Some researchers reported retention rates inscience and engineering in the U.S. have been disproportionately high for women [1], [6], whileothers have pointed out the attrition rates for women were consistent with those in other majors[7].

Insteadwe postulate that such differences inform students’ socialization into engineering and, as a result,their patterns of co-curricular participation. Weidman defines socialization as “the process bywhich individuals acquire the knowledge, skills, and dispositions that make them more or lesseffective members of their society” [5].

Many of the programs he instituted via external funding are still part of that office.

Which types of problems (Multiple Choice, Fill in the Blank or Handwritten) are best for which area of study (Math, Physics, and Engineering)? 2. To what degree did you find online homework helpful? 3. Which types of problems will help in your career?ResultsResults (Fig. 1 below) indicate that students overwhelmingly feel hand written homework is bestsuited for the Engineering discipline (over 90%). Furthermore, 57-60% of these same studentsindicate that this type of solution is appropriate in the Math and Physics disciplines, so moststudents do see value in traditional homework methods. So why are faculty using onlinehomework problems in these classes? One reason

As a result, theybegan their research careers with a better understanding of how and where to start and stayorganized. This workshop also benefitted new students’ labs, because it centralized andoutsourced the training of new graduate students. As a result, more time became available forlab-specific training by lab managers.Participating as a facilitator in this workshop presents a unique opportunity for graduate studentswho aspire to an academic career.

Multiple factors contribute to retention issues, such as poor teaching and advising, the difficulty of the engineering curriculum, and lack of motivation resulting from poor connections to the engineering community. Statistics indicate a large drop in the continuation rate between the first and third years among Science, Technology, Engineering, Math (STEM) students. As students encounter increasing course difficulty in the early stages of their programs, they often lack motivation to persist because they have weak connections to their majors and potential careers in STEM.

We offerpreliminary thoughts on the main causes of those differences, including course content andcontext, instructor background, and length and depth of the CSR modules.
