Students were asked about theirfuture plans and nearly all of the students who responded to the final survey reported that theywere planning to attend their first-choice college. Most of the participating students weregraduating seniors, but 6 were juniors and reported that they would be attending high school nextyear. Of the graduating seniors (who completed the year-end survey), all reported that theywould be attending higher education the following year. Moreover, all students were acceptedinto one of their top choice colleges/universities. All but one reported that they planned onattending a top choice college or university.

Funding support from industries such as NorthropGrumman, Raytheon, and Boeing has increased allowing EPIC to serve more low-incomeparticipants.Due to the recent COVID-19 pandemic, in 2020, when most universities simply shut down theirengineering summer pre-college programs, EPIC swiftly changed its programming to a fullyvirtual program and served over 400 participants. EPIC created a new curriculum, activities,training, and planned on how to solve issues such as participants' ability to use school-issued orpersonal chromebooks. Intensive home-laboratory activities with mechanical, electrical, andsoftware elements were created

’ confidence in chemistry, engineering andcomputer skills increased as a result of the course. The most significant increases were observedin engineering skills because initial confidence levels in this area were low. A majority ofstudents reported increased interest in STEM fields and 100% of students (during the 2018cohort) reported that increasing their confidence in science, math and engineering contributed tothis intensified interest. This program evaluation reviews the program’s objectives, format,teaching tools, student feedback and plans for future programming and assessment.IntroductionThe need for STEM-educated workers is long-standing and well-established [1, 2].

Problem scoping and understanding the problem is a major task for engineering designersbecause engineers are “rarely… given a specific, well-defined problem to solve” [8, pp. 12].

Instead wechose to bring in Center faculty to talk about their research and share expertise with the studentsvirtually. Due to this shift away from the research lab, the virtual experience was condensed into2 weeks, instead of the traditional 5 weeks.Using the Moodle learning management system, the team began transitioning the in-personinstruction, engineering projects, lab interactions, faculty support, and WDC, online.

This design approach emphasizes the use of familiar materials, transparency, low-cost, andrelatively light ecological footprint to support creativity and problem-solving. Students engaged in PaperMech projects experience a cycle of design from planning, sketching, prototyping, testing,troubleshooting, and communicating projects with others.To be able to control the paper machines, microcontrollers are used with servomotors, sensors andswitches.
