similar backgrounds and have been found to increase theretention of HUG students [30]. Furthermore, Safe Zone ally training is an effective way topositively change campus climate by educating people about the terminologies of genderminorities and the biases these minorities experience [31, 19].To promote the pursuit of research careers among HUG students, we launched astudent-led initiative, the HUG Initiative, in the Department of Electrical and ComputerEngineering (ECE) at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, in which the proportion ofHUG students is consistently near 15% for both undergraduate and graduate programs. The HUGInitiative is a pilot study that systematically identifies the needs and obstacles of HUGs in theECE department

approach to research on first-generation students, reflecting a focus on what thesestudents can add to engineering rather than focusing on what they lack [10]. We pose thefollowing research question: How do two first-generation students, one a first-year and one a fourth-year, describe their journeys through engineering?By comparing the perspectives of a first-year and fourth-year student, we can identifyopportunities for better supporting our first-year, first-generation students. Identifying thespecific challenges endured by both students in their first years, and the stories of how thosechallenges were navigated, allows educators to adjust existing practices to be more supportiveand inclusive of first-generation students.MethodsIn

cohort students for interacting with employers at the Career Fair; and 9. Industry tours to allow students to explore potential work environments they might enter after completing their studies.The SUCCESS Scholars cohort originally consisted of 24 students chosen from a pool ofapplicants that met the requirements of the S-STEM Program (low-income, academicallytalented). The goal was to combine best practices of other S-STEM programs together to providetiered support for the students using the nine elements mentioned above. The initial focus of theeffort centered around direct academic support (elements 1, 2, and 3 above). However, asstudents progressed further into their studies, the program’s focus shifted toward

Research Assistant in Dr Colleen Josephson’s j-Lab in Smart Sensing. Matthew has mentored students throughout the last four years, serving roles as a tutor and student-instructor, finding that the best way to truly learn a concept is by teaching to others. Matthew is expected to graduate in the summer of 2024 after completing his senior thesis in the development of a solar-powered sensor utilizing Visible Light Communication (VLC).Mr. Khanh Tran, University of California, Santa Cruz Khanh Tran is a 3rd year Electrical Engineering undergraduate at the University of California, Santa Cruz.

careers.(Antley, 2020). In 1997, the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET) releasedEngineering Criteria2000 (EC2000), an outcomes-based undergraduate accreditation standard designed toencourage the development of “soft” engineering skills such as teamwork, communication, and groupproblem-solving (Volkwein et al., 2004). This report addressed a need for engineering education to bettersupport non-technical outcomes for students (Sarin, 2000) such as increasing effective communication,providing a broader understanding of the global and societal impacts of engineering solutions, andreenforcing how to use engineering tools and skills in practice (Lattuca, Terenzini, & Volkwein, 2006).Programming and Models of Mentoring and

) is essentially the inverse of SIT of intergroup relations. It considerssocial systems as a defining framework from which an individual’s place in society is determined[6]; social identity is constructed as an individual interacts with multiple groups and maintainspositive values from some groups while distancing themselves from others [10]. As a researchlens, social identity theory is useful for gaining a greater understanding of when and howstudents begin to identify with engineering individually and socially. As a result, these conceptsinfluenced all aspects of our research design including participant recruitment as well as datacollection and analysis, as discussed in the next section.MethodsTo address our research question, we conducted

students to choose engineering and persist in engineering. She also studies how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering foster or hinder belonging and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a 2016 National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent diversity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning to understand engineering students’ identity development. She has won several awards for her research including the 2021 Journal of Civil Engineering Education Best Technical Paper, the 2021 Chemical
