strengths – collectively contributing to a cohortculture of collaboration and enhanced work ethic.With the measured gains in student success, self-efficacy, and identifying with their path inengineering, the ETS program has shown preliminary success in achieving these main outcomesfor students. The team will continue to provide special attention to getting students connected toeach other and continue building the teamwork and communication skills essential to strongacademic success, rewarding careers, and fulfilling lives.References1.

qualitative approachprovides a deeper look into dimensions of this experience for women on the transfer pathway andtheir perception of factors contributing to success.Quantitative methodsSurvey data were collected from 414 students aged 18 or older at three community colleges inTexas between April and September 2019. Select demographics of the sample are shown in Table1, more detailed demographic information can be found in Appendix B. The survey capturedinformation on students’ self-efficacy, inclusion, motivation, and confidence in ECS usingpreviously-validated measures from the Longitudinal Assessment of Engineering Self-Efficacy(LAESE) [12] and the Academic Table 1: Demographic characteristics of survey

, assessment of the HPAT model utilizes admission data (highschool GPA, Math and English placement, and student demographics), transfer GPA, time todegree completion, and graduation rate for determining longitudinal outcomes. These metricsprovide a relatively simple, and more comprehensive, set of leading indicators of longitudinalsuccess that can be measured for each student cohort and compared year-to-year.2.3.2. Qualitative AssessmentThe quality of the program will also be assessed. All students admitted to the HPAT model areexpected to respond to an online survey that addresses belonging and self-efficacy. AppreciativeInquiry [19] will be used for Case Study interviews to continuously improve the model. Studentsare randomly selected for Case Study

with COVID-19 guidelines of BISD. Videoand audio data were collected for the focus groups. Each focus group followed a semi-structuredformat where mentors ask a pre-defined sequence of questions regarding Making andManufacturing, diving deeper into questions based on participants’ responses. We asked threetypes of questions to initiate the discussion on the Making and Manufacturing, along withidentity-focused questions to gauge students’ self-efficacy. Qualitative data analysis wasconducted on transcribed video data and notes. Qualitative coding followed a grounded theoryapproach as employed by Charmaz and Strauss [62]. The coding procedure was conducted by ateam of three coders. After completion of open coding by a single coder, the other 2

Specifically, her research focuses on (1) creating an effective intervention that helps URMs persist and continue on in STEM ma- jors via the social media platform, YouTube; (2) examining the nuances related to various measures of academic self-related motivational beliefs; (3) resilient students who achieve high levels of academic per- formance despite their disability; and (4) combining aspects of cognitive and positive psychology to study individual differences in motivation, particularly in exploring

exploratory framework as An Exploratory Black EngineeringTransfer Student Success Model in Figure 1.This model was informed by a number of well-established persistence and retention models [31],[32], [33]. It was also influenced by Wang’s STEM Transfer Model [30], which suggests thattransfer and retention is influenced by a series of factors. These factors include a student’s self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and the four-year institution’s willingness to welcome transfersonto their campus. After reviewing these prior works, we incorporated key components andelements of retention from these models, along with key components associated with Blackengineering undergraduate success.As our exploratory model illustrates, the process of Black engineering
