technology the engineering schools must be focused on providing a strongeducation to students in technical fields. Our college takes this issue seriously by providingstudents with a very strong foundation of engineering education that allows them to transfersuccessfully to any four-year engineering programs. Engineering students in an academic setting do not have the environment, theresponsibilities, the demands, or the interactions with other members of an engineering team, nordo they face the real-life situations and challenges that a practicing engineer faces every day.Therefore, our program decided that our mentorship initiative must have as many professionalengineering aspects as academic ones. We built the mentoring role to be part coach

address concerns about academic preparationand connecting students to faculty, on-campus resources, and other students.IntroductionA key to maximizing America’s future success is broader access to higher education. One of tenrecommendations from the National Research Council is to “secure for the United States the fullbenefits of education for all Americans, including women and underrepresented minorities, inscience, mathematics, engineering, and technology” [1]. This goal is a central tenet of theUniversity of California (UC) system, which was recently recognized by The New York Timesas an “upward-mobility machine” [2]. UC campuses received six of the top seven spots on theirCollege Access Index, which ranks schools on the percentage of students
