few partners also provided academic year remote computational researchprojects. Students received support in preparing for and applying to these “internal” as well as“external” research opportunities (those not affiliated with MNT-CURN) from a team of near-peer mentors who had themselves started research in community college.Each cohort met online weekly with center staff to hear speakers from universities, projects, andnational labs talk about current research and opportunities for summer research related to microand nano technologies or participate in workshops on technical and professional developmentskills. Workshop topics included Python and MATLAB coding, writing a resume, establishing aLinkedIn presence, requesting a letter of

For this review, the team bound the study and selection criteria to ensure that thescholarship included was relevant to the topical area rather than simply relying on theresearchers’ familiarity or agreement with the available scholarship. Exclusion criteria wereidentified to outline how researchers eliminated studies from consideration and defined thepurpose of the study (DePoy & Gitlin, 1994). For this study, inclusion and exclusion criteriaincluded: 1 1. The study was published between 2013 and 2023. 2. The study was peer-reviewed articles, book chapters

realm of artificial intelligence(AI) research. By focusing on the development and implementation of real-time computer visionon energy-efficient Cortex-M microprocessors, we offer a practical and educational avenue forstudents to delve into the burgeoning field of AI. Through a combination of theoreticalunderstanding and practical application, students are empowered to explore AI concepts, gainproficiency in low-power computing, and contribute to real-world AI projects. Furthermore, theproject offered student interns a valuable opportunity to refine their research capabilities,particularly in the realms of scientific writing and presentation, while simultaneously boostingtheir self-assurance and enthusiasm for pursuing STEM careers in the field

across several engineering disciplines. Each project team was supervised by atleast a faculty advisor and a student peer mentor enrolled in the four-year university. Theresearch project outcomes of the internship, as well as the external evaluation results, haveshown that the summer research internship program delivered its objectives to have studentinterns gain valuable engineering research experience, strengthened their confidence in problemsolving, and reinforced their interest in pursuing an engineering degree. Furthermore, theprogram improved the students’ technical skillset, team collaboration, time management, andcommunication skills. The first-year development and implementation of the program, as well asits outcomes and lessons learned

), an HSI in the State University of New York (SUNY) system. In year one, Cohort Apiloted the PD modules in Tier 1 which featured reflective exercises and small culturallyresponsive activities to try with their STEM students. In year two, Cohort A piloted the PDmodules in Tier 2 and peer-mentored Cohort B as they piloted optimizations introduced to Tier 1from Cohort A feedback. Three types of optimizations came from faculty feedback. The firstconsidered feedback regarding delivery and/or nature of the content that influenced a subsequentmodule. The second involved making changes to a particular module before it was delivered toanother faculty cohort. The third takes into account what worked and what didn’t to decidewhich content to bring into

interested in partnering with EngineeringMomentum to offer summer internships to both university students and early-stage communitycollege students interested in engineering.Engineering Momentum valued a collaboration with SPUR—benefitting from its expertise andtrack record of opening new pathways for qualified interns—which would allow communitycollege students to enter the program. Engineering Momentum placed 20 community collegestudents in 2023 through SPUR. Another 10 students interned at the University of ColoradoDenver, and five community college students interned at Lockheed Martin.Engineering Momentum research internships included mentoring from the professor, graduatestudents, and peer-to-peer collaboration between two- and four-year

Students are asked the extent to which theinstitution has proved supportive of their overall well-being in areas such as recreation, healthcare, and counseling and if they were able to obtain help to manage non-academicresponsibilities such as work and family. Students are asked if they feel like part of thecommunity at their institution.As an institution-level data source, the NSSE, if used, can provide context and institutionalbaseline data.

communication skills through practice. 4- Innovative engineers also encourage one another through peer instruction, professional associations, and group work. 5- Finally, the education of innovative engineers involves sympathetic mentors who provide resources, inspiration, and awareness of the contribution of previous generations.The Framework aims to provide explicit instruction to help students acquire the skills in this list,including skills not explicitly taught in the traditional engineering classroom. Consistent with the valuesof the Framework, students need practice to develop the self-direct learning skills of reading andnotetaking.

. With aDWD, a student could earn 60 general education credits in a community college, transfer to auniversity, earn 60 upper-division credits, and graduate with a bachelor’s degree—nominally infour years’ time. At this writing, nearly 40 statewide DWDs have been adopted. All publicinstitutions participate in statewide articulation agreements, and some private institutions alsoarticulate credits from community colleges. However, the onus for navigating policyramifications rests on students, who must know the policy and how to advocate for themselves.Unfortunately, what would appear to be straightforward on paper can be opaque to students [74].The culture of higher education with gaps between systems [75] can challenge successfultransfer [9
