Her research focuses what factors influence diverse students to choose engineering and stay in engineering through their careers and how different experiences within the practice and culture of engineering foster or hinder belongingness and identity development. Dr. Godwin graduated from Clemson University with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering and Ph.D. in Engineering and Science Education. Her research earned her a National Science Foundation CAREER Award focused on characterizing latent diversity, which includes diverse attitudes, mindsets, and approaches to learning, to understand engineering students’ identity devel- opment.

, Steven described a desire to “travel more as itis my main goal in life on top of pursuing a career in engineering.”Concluding Discussion Although literature suggests that experiential global learning programs positively impactstudent outcomes, not all student groups are equally represented in global programs. As we havediscussed, some student groups remain systematically excluded from global programs inengineering, including prospective transfer students and students from low SES or first-generation backgrounds. Experiences of these students are underexplored largely because of theminimal representation of these groups in global programs. Thus, this paper illuminated theexperiences of prospective transfer students from low SES backgrounds

However, the transition from the freshmanto sophomore year is a critical formational period and yet often neglected in student successinitiatives [1-3]. The sophomore year is a defining moment in the college career, and also a timethat is filled with uncertainty and a sense of losing support students had in their freshmen year [2,4-6]. We recognized the need for students to strengthen their motivation, resolve, and capabilityto persevere through the challenges that tend to hit them particularly hard when they reach theirfirst engineering courses, typically in their sophomore year.

]. Furthermore, teachers report that the K-12 IP needs to be a good “fit” for theschool context [4].By design, summer camps mitigate some of the challenges faced by teachers during the schoolyear, offering a flexible format unburdened by standards or testing schedules. Furthermore, thereis evidence to suggest that STEM summer camps may be especially useful for promoting STEMinterest in K-12 populations. For example, participants in STEM summer camps report increasedpositive attitudes towards STEM, confidence in their understanding of STEM content, and anintent to continue taking classes in STEM fields or to pursue a STEM career after finishing theprogram [10]-[16].Summer camps specifically related to invention have also shown positive student outcomes

to better preparestudents for their future engineering careers, partly because of conflicting beliefs about thepurposes and methods of education [9]. For those who believe that current methods are mostlysuccessful, technical preparation takes precedence over contextualizing engineering knowledgein societal contexts. Learning to work within larger social issues occurs on the job and later inone’s career. Such prioritization of disciplinary knowledge in the curriculum is, however, oftenbased on a zero-sum calculus that assumes the time spent on societal context is time taken awayfrom core engineering knowledge. There is evidence this perspective is not fully correct [10].Other perspectives emphasize the need for more professional or

their academic journey [6], [37], [38]. The roots of students' challenges incollege-level mathematics may be traced back to their high school experiences [39], [40]. Giventhat mathematical skills are often used to assess job applicants across various careers [41], mathreadiness becomes a critical determinant for college admissions [42] and subsequent degreeattainment [43], [44]. While some studies have delved into disparities in math readiness, othershave explored variations based on racial and ethnic minorities [45].The perception of integration and emotional connection during the first year, often referred to asthe sense of community [46], has been shown to have a substantial influence on students'academic achievement [47].
