ofresearch, (4) an interactive tour of the conference hardware competition which provides concreteexamples of cutting edge research, (5) a small group Q&A with graduate students engaged inresearch, and finally (6) a panel discussion with diverse research faculty committed to post-secondary engineering education. The challenges associated with this approach to outreach, theadvantages of incorporating a STEM intervention into a technical research conference, andsuccessful methods for locating a group of underserved students are discussed. In addition, thescale and impact of the intervention are evaluated through open-ended and quantitative surveys.The survey results document the positive student reaction to this intervention. The positivestudent
