experientiallearning experience on underrepresented minority engineering students, majority black. Thisstudy will focus on students who participate in experiential learning held at an HBCU todetermine the program's impact on their persistence from sophomore to senior year. It alsoprovides insight for Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs) and other institutions to learn andmodel best practices for retaining black students beyond their freshman year.B. OverviewAfter successfully retaining students from their freshman year to their sophomore year with anEngineering LLC, in 2017, Florida A&M University (FAMU) introduced an experientiallearning program titled Educating Engineering Students Innovatively (EESI, pronounced “easy”)that expanded on the freshman

, andproject development of the participants. This paper will also focus on the continued use of remote internshipsand experiential opportunities as a High Impact Practice to engage students at an urban commuter universityacross all majors.BackgroundHigh Impact Practices (HIPs) have been shown to be effective in retention, persistence, and overall studentsuccess [1-5]. These practices include activities such as undergraduate research, service learning, experientiallearning opportunities, internships, study abroad, collaborative projects and writing intensive courses. Theseactivities have been found to be very beneficial for underrepresented students. Institutional resources,curriculums and student body demographics limit the effectiveness of the

(NHERI) – NetworkCoordination Office (NCO) is a National Science Foundation funded collaborative grant thataims to coordinate research and outreach activities for the multi-disciplinary natural hazardsengineering research. As part of the NHERI-NCO, the Education and Community Outreachinitiatives include opportunities for undergraduate students to conduct research to mitigate theeffects of natural hazards. The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) has been well-researched as a best practice for preparing college students for graduate studies (Willis, Krueger,& Kendrick, 2013), especially underrepresented students in engineering (Labrador & Perez,2006). Curriculum was developed specifically for the NHERI REU program to

importance of schools and families working together to ensure student success [6].While it’s never too late to get students engaged in STEM, getting middle school studentsinvolved with hands-on technologies learning generally produces a more strategic and inquisitiveapproach towards STEM as student’s advance through high school and beyond [7]. Based onthese previous research findings, this project posits that meaningful outcomes in Hispanicstudent appreciation and understanding of STEM disciplines can best be achieved by engagingmiddle school students in inquiry-centered after-school programs that are designed to enhancemiddle school students’ engagement, and are reinforced by family involvement. Theinterdisciplinary approach to STEM education being

WIL is considered instrumental in enhancinggraduate employability by improving a range of employability skills (Jackson & Dean, 2023;Patrick et al., 2008), providing opportunities to practice and refine skills in a real worldsetting (Jackson, 2015).

, the proposed research has the potential to broaden participationin STEM by increasing engagement, retention, and graduation of underrepresented minorities.Second, in building SocioTechnical Learning capacity, the research will also contribute to newapproaches for community centered solutions that leverage cultural assets of underrepresentedstudents and consider alternative knowledges in collaborative technology design, development,and implementation. As students graduate and enter the workforce, they carry with them thecapacity to respond to human and societal dimensions of technology in daily practices.3.

process for placing students within engineering internships. The PEI has adopted theEWX processes for placing interns with regional companies.1 PSU Center for Internship, Mentoring, and Research (CIMR)2 PSU Engineering Work Experience (EWX) InternshipAssessment MethodsThe two DoE programs will support these internships for multiple years, three years for theWheatridge wind project and seven for the CTWS transmission corridor project. As such, ourteam has developed assessment tools that will allow us to measure the PEI program over severaliterations using a consistent set of tools. These assessment tools will inform project operation,provide our project partners with metrics pertaining to their CBPs and Justice40 objectives, andalso serve as
