Engineering Education, 2023Work in Progress: Towards a participatory action research approach to improverepresentation of Black Ph.D.s in engineeringAbstractThis work-in-progress introduces a conceived participatory action research approach to improverepresentation and support for Black Ph.D.s in engineering. In 2019, only 3.9% of doctoralengineering degrees were awarded to Black students (ASEE, 2020), thereby affecting who goeson to become future faculty members, leaders, and role models (Burt et al., 2019). Most researchon broadening participation in engineering has focused on undergraduate education with relativelylimited work on graduate populations (Burt et al., 2018).

In a study at apublic University in the Southeastern United States published in 2019, it was found that womenreport lower levels of satisfaction and lower perception that the university honored their packagesthan men [7]. Similarly, among early-career clinician-researchers, a positive association was foundbetween access to adequate research equipment, which start-up packages can provide, andprofessional success [8].

). Essentially, one in every four 4-year HBCU institutionsexperienced a resignation or termination at the highest level. Presidents at HBCUs have asignificantly shorter tenure, with an average of 3.3 years, than those of other four-yearinstitutions, with an average tenure of 7 years (Kimbrough, 2017; Gagliardi et al., 2017;Washington Lockett, 2019). These changes have been deemed a “crisis” and an added challengeto the ongoing recovery efforts of many HBCUs that are disproportionately impacted by theglobal pandemic. Particular examples highlighting the extent of this crisis include the state ofMississippi, which saw four presidents leave their eight public institutions within one year(Moody, 2023).

IntroductionIn today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, STEM education is the foundation forfuture advancements, economic growth, and societal progress. It prepares students for careers infields like engineering and computer science. It equips them with the skills necessary to thrive ina technology-driven world. It also fosters innovation and problem-solving abilities to addressglobal challenges like the energy crisis, climate change, and healthcare. According to the Bureauof Labor Statistics, employment in STEM areas in the United States is projected to grow by 9.5%from 2019 to 2029, which is a much faster growth compared to
Summer Camps canalleviate this concern by exposing participants from diverse backgrounds to the topical areas,encouraging participating students to pursue STEM-based careers, and helping the nation meet theneed for a STEM-focused workforce. Thus, given the need to ensure a diverse set of studentparticipants in summer camps, including women and underrepresented minorities, and the ability ofSummer Camps to alleviate the problem, this research determines the diversity of STEM summercamp attendees in the US over two decades. The three-staged research included sample selection,parameter development, and descriptive statistical analysis. Sample selection was dictated byfactors such as the ASEE article and publication date (in twenty years). Parameter
