GenCyber program are to inform and educate K-12 students about the various career pathsin cyber security related fields and to provide them with the foundational skills and understandingof cyber security. The camp’s curriculum is unique in the way that it includes minimalistintroductory lectures to familiarize students with foundational cyber security concepts, manyhands-on activities using a remote virtual computer laboratory, and discussions with a strongemphasis on informing students of the potential career paths in information security. The studentslearn techniques for information system protection, destruction, and restoration by incorporatingseveral cybersecurity first principles.

6% of STEM workers and Hispanics representing 7% ofSTEM workers [7].Traditional efforts to increase participation in STEM fields have been largely focused on improving themath and science curriculum through better recruitment and training of teachers with scholarships, loan-forgiveness, and higher pay. However, “not enough STEM graduates means not enough STEM teachers,regardless of incentives [8].” An alternative is to expose students to STEM fields early and induce them tochoose STEM careers. For example, 65% of scientists with advanced degrees developed their scienceinterest before middle school [9]. However, in underserved populations, it is not necessarily lack of theawareness of STEM fields but the socio-economic barriers that prevent

The same textbooks can also too easily underestimatethe ability of undergraduates to appreciate and understand a genuine variety of ethicalapproaches. In the short run, these oversimplifications sometimes produces textbooks andcourses that are often too bare to have much connection to the ethical decisions students arealready making in their

By considering the processes and mechanisms by whichgraduate students develop, faculty members can reform or revise their leadership practices(formally and informally) to better meet the needs of graduate students at various stages in theiracademic careers. Although these theories may seem disparate, they intersect and overlap in anacademic research group context. As we lead the attendees of this interactive panel workshopthrough the following activities, we ask them to reflect on how these theories impact how theymake decisions for their research group and how theory-guided decisions might help themimprove or plan for effective and productive

Nevertheless, the number ofminorities, women, and people with disabilities in engineering has remained stagnant. Becauseof the need to offer an equal opportunity for all involved, there is a robust desire to advance thevariety of perceptions contributing to engineering.

However, since the realization that the US has a lownumber of students enrolled in STEM programs, great effort has been expended to encourageyouth to pursue careers in these areas. Because of these broad-based efforts, the demographicsof students moving into STEM are different from those in the past.

are aprimary factor inhibiting gender parity (De Cohen 2009). In other words, the problem beginslong before women students enter university.Numerous theories help explain women’s decision not to enroll in engineering. Supply sidetheories assume a mismatch between women’s perceptions of the field and their ability toachieve their life goals (Ceci, Williams, and Barnett 2009). In particular, women may come tothe conclusion that a highly demanding engineering career would be too constraining on theirability to birth and raise children—a perception that may be exacerbated in national contextswhere public childcare systems have not been developed. Other theories suggest that there is areduced demand for women based on institutionalized attitudes
