effort for decades [1] However, many of these efforts have focused on support of aspecific underrepresented group, but do not necessarily address the independent behaviors orattitudes of all students, or the overall cultural influence of the department, school, or university.The development of a new generation of engineering graduates that is more conscientious of theneed for diverse thinking and teams is critical for retaining members of these underrepresentedpopulations outside of a university setting and developing a stronger and more effectiveengineering workforce.In order to work towards this goal, an NSF-funded multi-institutional project in its third year isdeveloping unique curriculum activities that highlight how the engineering

.). Exposure to the componentis measured by time. During the development of the fidelity checklist, the necessary timerequired for participants to gain the knowledge, skill or ability is predetermined. The actual timedevoted to the component is recorded on the checklist. Finally, the responsiveness of theaudience is also recorded. Here the evaluator is determining the audience’s engagement with thecontent (Gerstner & Finney, 2013). By assessing the training program in this way, a morethorough understanding of the program components can be assessed and the intended curriculumversus the presented curriculum can be evaluated holistically.An implementation fidelity assessment provides an environment where programmaticcomponents are articulated

These experiences are alsoexpected to positively affect course curriculum and teaching effectiveness through increasedfeedback by students and industry [7].The MET and SM curricula are rigorous, as both programs are math and physics intensive andare considered STEM programs. Both of them require courses such as (but not limited to)algebra, calculus, chemistry, physics, probability and statistics, industrial hygiene, human factorsand ergonomics, fire protection systems, system safety analysis, hazardous materialmanagement, introduction to solid modeling, applies statics

College of Engineering (CoE) graduation rates for 2015 at our Hispanic ServingInstitution revealed to be 73% for students from households with income above $50,000/year, and54% from households with income below $7,500/year. Similar trends were also noticed in retentionand persistence rates indicating higher attrition among students from lower income families. Thisprogram aims to increase these statistics among LIATS by integrating elements from Lent’s et al.Social Cognitive Career Theory [1] [2] and Tinto’s Departure Model [3][4] in conjunction with ascholarship program. The final objective is to establish an intervention model to be furtherinstitutionalized in the CoE, if proven to be effective [5][6]. In this program we have includedtools to

programs becomeeligible for graduate assistantship funding as soon as their graduate career level is activated.Since research is a major component in R1 institution’s mission, such early career opportunitiesare vital to student’s success as this fosters the exposure to research at an early stage, whichfurther hones and develops students’ professional and technical skills. The 4+1 program couldfoster an effective educational paradigm by integrating undergraduates to collaborate and workwith graduate students to enhance their technical and professional skills [7].Background and MotivationSTEM Education in the U.S. has undergone drastic changes over the past years due to concernsrelating to the quality of education being offered to prepare the next

. More than serving as a conduit for academic andsocial integration, several authors have failed to consider the complexities and nuances of theprogram's role. Many researchers referred to the college experience as the black box [13], as it isdifficult to determine which factors lead to retention or attrition of the students. In the currentstudy, an integrated conceptual framework that examined aspects of student success, sense ofbelonging, scientific identity, and conceptions of care within a STEM enrichment programenlightened a multifaceted model for identifying and describing the program's inner workingsand resulting student outcomes.Wilson et al.
