Thenumber admitted each year was capped by the money available for new scholarships andfilled on a first come, first served basis. If there were too many applicants, the statementof purpose was the main criteria used for selection as judged by the school’s scholarshipdirector and the CIRC/METS PI.Over the five years of the project 76 students took part in the program.

reported that “women werecomprised of approximately 52 percent of the U.S. population, African Americans 12 percent,Latinos 16 percent, Asians 5 percent, and all other racial-ethnic groups 3 percent” (p. 25).However, women (11 percent) and African American, Latino, and Native American males (7.4percent) only accounted for less than 20 percent of the engineering workforce in the U.S. in 2010(Byars-Winston, Fouad, & Wen, 2015). If these trends continue as we approach the middle of thetwenty-first century it could have a damaging impact on the United States’ skilled workforce.This is especially true since it is projected that by the year 2050 approximately half of the totalU.S. population will be comprised of people of color (Palmer, Maramba

. Like I just learned the universal [coefficient] theorem and how it connects to my research project. Once I understand and can apply it, then I get it. I work twice as hard [as others] to understand, but once I get it then I really see the connection and it’s much easier for me. I have to see how it’s applied in a conceptual way for me to get it.Carina: Honestly, I'm a little lazy, to be honest, especially when it doesn't really interest me. Ifit's something I have to do and I know I'm not going to like it.

on co-ed groupprojects that showed that boys tend to take on more valued project roles and control access totools and materials, while girls end up in administrative roles [15], [16]. To evaluate the successof a single sex approach, researchers have examined single-sex after school programs and specialgirls-only programs within co-ed schools. For example, Fadigan and Hammrich [17] examined amuseum program for girls and showed that the program created a space for girls that supported apositive sense of self.On the other hand, there are practitioners and researchers that critique the idea of separating girlsby saying, for example, that girls need, eventually, to work in mixed spaces therefore it is best tofocus on their ability to navigate

Our work draws heavilyfrom the following prior work, which indicates that identity in general, and engineering identitymore specifically, is a multi-dimensional construct that is influenced by many factorsand frequently dependent on context.

Students apply online through the program’s website and are selected based on thequality and composition of two essays. Academic performance, e.g., GPA, class rank, or APcoursework, is purposefully not considered in the application. Racial information is collected atthe time of application; however, it is blinding during the selection process and only analyzedafter students are notified of their acceptance to the program.
