- Cost Brain Computer Interface TechnologiesAbstract:Advancing an interest and literacy in Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)fields in high school students through summer and after school programs has been widelypopular since the 1990’s, and these programs are effective at improving retention and persistenceafter graduation. However, there still remains a lack of designing programs to increase interestand literacy of biomedical engineering (BME) related applications that are scalable at otherinstitutions. This is typically due to the challenges of providing costly resources that areavailable only in specific laboratory settings and require graduate level expertise to operate. Toprovide a low-cost and scalable approach to
