First, methods of "results-based facilitation" guide all meetings to move talk to action. Second, TaLENt school-level team webinars engage all Fellows by assigning specific roles (Note Taker, Time Keeper, Meeting Summarizer, Reporter, or Participant) to Fellows.

makerspace in a large northeastern university opened three and a halfyears ago. It is housed in the school of engineering but open to all university students, staff, andfaculty. The space is 10,000 sq-ft, with a large open floor plan and typical maker equipment aswell as advanced machining and testing, such as 3D printers (FDM, SLA), CNC routing andmilling, soldering, PCB milling and testing, laser cutting, and waterjet cutting. There is aworkshop area with a large screen for presentations within the space itself. The makerspace ismanaged by three full-time staff members and a large group of paid undergraduate and graduatestudent staff, who lead the introductory training and workshops.The first-year cornerstone course, Introduction to Engineering

engineering majors now have access to virtual desktops with relevant software.Scholarship SelectionTo date, we have supported 54 students in the Fast-Forward Program. Our to-date target is 60.The original proposal sought to support 22 students per summer at a level that would cover full-time tuition and fees, housing, and a meal plan, subject to financial aid eligibility. Due to risingcosts of room, board, tuition, and fees at our institution, we have revised the target to 20 studentsper summer. In the first three years of the program, we have supported 54 students with themedian award size of $6,000 in Year 1 (average $5,762) and $6,500 in Years 2 and 3 (averaging$5,945 and $6,043 in Years 2 and 3, respectively).

Considering its fairly simple structure, it can be an attractive designproject for senior undergraduate engineering students. It provides sufficient technical challengesand ample enlightening opportunities to allow students to apply their knowledge in fluids,materials and manufacturing, CAD/CAM, and economics. With this consideration, the college ofengineering decided to design and manufacture a subsonic wind tunnel. It was planned as seniorcapstone design project that spanned three consecutive years.

Students responded to 8 items, again using a 5-point Likert-type scale ranging from strongly agree to strongly disagree; lower DoingEngineering scores indicate stronger and more frequent prior experiences with engineering. Inaddition to these measures, students completed a demographics survey in which they providedtheir age, gender, race/ethnicity, first generation status, and future plans for college. At the end ofthe academic year, all registered EPICS participants were sent the post-survey via an anonymousQualtrics link. The post-survey mirrored the pre-survey, but with the inclusion of open-endedquestions and the removal of the registration section. TABLE 1

, 100% of the responding indicated they were extremely (94%) or somewhat (6%) satisfied with their overall experience in the S-STEM program. All students indicated their meetings with the S-STEM Student Success Coach were extremely or somewhat informative. Also, success rate of S-STEM students is higher than the other students in all STEM courses (e.g. calculus I, engineering statics, physics I). At the present, the actual impact of the Student Success Coach on academic success remains to be determined as incoming ACT scores indicate that the S-STEM cohort is academically better prepared. Further analysis is planned to investigate this. Additional updated and detailed information will be provided on our poster.Introduction

While the Career Services presentation was perceivedas being extremely/very useful by most students, students were not as satisfied with workshops focused on general study skillsand time management. In the future we plan to rework these sessions to include a clearer connection to the CS major. A majority of the students were extremely satisfied with the organized social events with student leaders from Women inTech and the Diversity in Computing (Diversineers) student groups in our department. The Faculty Scavenger Hunt was alsorated highly by students. Figure 4 shows student feedback on those events.
