The underrepresentation of minority women in engineeringand technology careers necessitates that historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs)engage minority middle-school girls in effective learning experiences to increase their self-efficacy and persistence. However, little is known about the learning experiences of minoritymiddle-school girls during alternative learning programs at HBCUs.
