Pre-College Engineering Education for Building a STEM Pipeline – Work in ProgressIntroductionEngineering education programs prepare graduates to meet the required workforce needs invarious disciplines and develop the next generation of experts to advance technology for solvingreal-world problems. Emphasis over the last several decades has been to prepare adequatequalified engineers to meet the demand in the workforce. Most of the tech-related industriesfocused on creating a STEM pipeline by raising awareness in K-12 students and supportingmotivation and education efforts for this purpose. Higher education institutions supported thisinitiative by engaging engineering students as mentors and role models for K-12

Compared to boys, attitudes towards STEM subjects for middle-school girls arebecoming more negative between the seventh and ninth grades and are declining at a faster pace[11]. The current gender gap in girls' attitudes and interests most likely affects their performancein the STEM study and their lifestyle choices associated with important life phases [12]. In termsof career participation, women are less interested in STEM subjects and occupations than men[13]. Post a 2017 five-day all girls STEM camp at West Virginia Institute of Technology, 81%(26/32

Many graduate programs assume students enter the program with foundationalinformation literacy knowledge obtained during their undergraduate programs. However, this isat odds with our understanding of theory-heavy undergraduate programs.
