Building upon the success of the pilot year ofthe program, this study formally examines the effectiveness of the GradTrack program in itssecond year.Specifically, this study aims to address two questions: A) Does the GradTrack Scholars Programprepare participating undergraduate students for graduate school? and B) Does GradTrack assistin the professional development and sense of belonging for graduate student mentors? Toevaluate these questions, this research paper uses pre- and post-event surveys and a focus groupof mentors from the 2022 GradTrack cohort. This paper will also discuss modifications madebetween the first two years of the program. The results of this assessment and ideas forimplementation across other

The study that Cech [17] conductedshowed that students in universities actually decrease in their feelings of social engagement andresponsibilities as they progress through their education. While the changes are small, they aresignificant and point to a larger problem with undergraduate education and the socialization ofengineers.Engineering IdentityThe development of an identity as an engineer has begun to be considered a factor in theformation of a professional engineer.

, by studying inclusivity,equity and power in educational systems we found ourselves in the position of asking people tochange. Some changes seem small (e.g. asking someone to edit their vocabulary by adding orremoving a word or phrase), and some seem larger (e.g. asking a School to establish policies toenforce an inclusive culture for graduate students) but the common element is that we areworking to get people to align to our vision.RecommendationsWe have three recommendations for people in engineering education who are beginning toengage in social justice reform.Take action where you can and expect and accept mistakesA primary inspiration for this paper was that we felt unprepared for the particular challenges weencountered.

Many other successful programs focus on younger students to intervene incritical decision making times.For this project we paired schools that have been a part of ongoing K-12 outreach programs withadditional schools that have a larger percentage of underrepresented groups in their generalpopulation. In the initial pilot, participating High Schools sent two teachers and six students tothe STEM-Discovery camp. Teachers were urged to select student teams that balance academicdisciplines with roughly half having interests in science/math and the other half in other fields.Teacher workshops were used to guide teachers through the engineering design process, as wellas the content
