This global perspective is rooted in a vision of SJSU as a preeminent producer of forward-thinking problem-solvers. With this goal in mind, Wei has established the Silicon Valley Engineering Scholarship, a program that provides $5,000 of annual support for high-achieving students to pursue engineering careers. Wei is also a Principal Contributor to CSU (California State University) Engineering Academies, a statewide program that helps high schools better motivate and prepare students for the rigors of engineering education.

past 30 years [1], [2], [4].Prior studies showed that there are many factors involved in students’ academic retention andpersistence such as family background, vision for a career, demographic characteristics,institutional type, curriculum [5], [6] , classroom related factors, grade performance [7],friendship support, academic engagement, attitudes, and satisfaction, as well as many more [8],[9]. Early studies [10] examined the effect of students' characteristics and their interactions ontheir persistence. Other researchers [5] studied other factors like career goals and commitments.These studies are framed using many theoretical frameworks. One such framework is socialcognitive career theory (SCCT) [9], [11]. SCCT was developed to explain how

However, understanding the fullimpact of the hiring process in computing, and in particular, how it affects groups alreadyunderrepresented in computing (women, Black/African American, and Hispanic/Latinx workers),is important to creating a workplace of diverse talent [4–6].

To address this project goal, our REU sitepursued three objectives: 1) Engage a total of 10 students annually from traditionally underrepresented groups or from colleges and universities with limited research opportunities, immersing these students in ongoing research projects in HPC-related engineering fields. 2) Cultivate talented students to effectively plan, conduct, and communicate scientific research through meaningful and engaging research projects, close and effective mentoring, weekly group meetings, mentor training, and public presentations. 3

Xu [10]found that academic integration (participation in organized academic activities with peers,working with students outside class, interacting with faculty outside class concerningcoursework) was one of the strongest indicators of student retention in STEM majors.Zimmerman [11] found that students with high levels of self-efficacy work harder, participate inclass, persist longer, and have fewer negative reactions when they encounter difficulties in theirmajor.
