strategies for creating equitable access to the discipline. Byexamining how Western Tech Scholars and their peers become cybersecurity professionals, thispaper provides information about “what works” in influencing a diverse body of students tostudy cybersecurity in institutions that are minority serving.3 MethodologyThis qualitative case study considers the Western Tech S-STEM program as the bounded system[15] under investigation. This section describes the data sources used in this study as well as thedata analysis strategies used. IRB was obtained before gathering data.3.1 Data CollectionData sources for this study include the following: a) Annual interviews with Western TechScholars, occurring between May and October from 2019 to 2021, b

engineering students through community building (Evaluation) AbstractOver the past twelve years, the ESTEEM program, funded by the NSF S-STEM, at University ofCalifornia Santa Barbara (UCSB) has supported 161 low-income undergraduate students inengineering. This paper emphasizes the students’ changing needs and what they foundsupportive over time with a special focus on the shifting needs for community building before,during, and after COVID-19 pandemic remote learning. Without additional support, low-incomeengineering students, who often reflect additional intersecting minoritized identities and are morelikely to be the first in their family to attend college, leave the field at
