The scholarship was available to qualifying students for four years,allowing some students to complete both an undergraduate degree and a Master’s degree as anHAIS student. Each of the five degree programs nominated students for HAIS based on thesequalifications, with specific attention paid to scholars from the mountain counties surroundingthe university.B. Data Collection Surveys were administered to scholars during each academic semester (fall and spring)from fall 2018 to spring 2023.

As such, the future of the US’s role in manufacturing requires innovation, cutting-edgeand sustainable technologies, and new materials. Furthermore, this new era of manufacturingwill require a well-educated and well-prepared STEM workforce. Since the task of inspiring andpreparing K-12 students in STEM falls largely on K-12 teachers, it is critical that the teachersunderstand the role of materials and manufacturing in the US and are provided with the tools andknowledge that will empower them to get children excited about STEM as well as careers inmaterials and advanced
