as they navigate the complexities ofSTEM education and careers. Through this literature review, we aim to identify gaps in currentmentoring approaches for minority graduate and undergraduate students in STEM fields anddevelop a new mentoring strategy that addresses their specific needs and challenges. Historically, academic mentorship has concentrated on learning rather than careerdevelopment or psychosocial needs (Ensher, 1997; Stromei, 1998). According to research,undergraduate students who are mentored had higher GPAs, greater retention rates, and moreunits finished each semester than their unmentored peers (Campbell and Campbell 1997).Mentoring addresses key aspects of student identification and social integration into

The author argues that local publicpolicy platforms are needed so as to ensure that women engineers have a space to put theirSTEM skills into action within the workplace (Qayyum, 2012).Gulf ContextWithin the Arab Gulf region alone, women comprise 60% of engineering students in universities,double the percentage of female engineering students in the U.S. and Europe (Durrani, 2015).Unfortunately, this does not translate to the same percentages in the workforce after graduation.For example, in Qatar, women make up less than 12% of the workforce (Yahia, 2012).Participation of women in the workforce, and particularly related to STEM fields, havenevertheless been

All of these activities have fostered a tight-knit learn- ing community and provided ample opportunities for peer mentoring and networking with alumnae. Because we focus on recruiting first-year students and retaining them through graduation, the program has grown from nine freshmen in the first year to over forty students now who range from fresh- men to seniors. Our recruitment efforts have become more successful as the program has grown which we attribute to the active involve- ment of current students in recruiting and a record of the programs accomplishments.
