. Another initiativeis the Leadership Alliance, a more comprehensive program that involves more than 30institutions of different types (Ghee et al. 2014). One of the key aspects of this consortium is 8-10 weeks of summer research experience. Students from member MSIs accepted for theexperience in a research institution carry out a research project, receive mentorship, and gainresearch and professional skills. These programs and other similar ones have the potential tobuild capacity for the transformation of higher education and the workforce. Similarly, theHBCU/MSI Research Summit has the potential for broadening participation by creating acontext in which initial encounters-- between students, and students and faculty-- may lead toresearch

the distinction between collaborative learning on the one hand and cooperativelearning on the other (see, e.g., Olivares 2 ). Cooperative learning is group learning whose main goal is for everymember of the group to learn 3,4 . Our focus is on this type of learning. By contrast, the goal of collaborative learningis for the group to work together to solve a problem, complete a project, etc.; ensuring that each individual memberof the group learns some particular item of knowledge is secondary. We should also add that not all authors use thesedefinitions of cooperative and collaborative learning with some authors conflating the two and others interchangingthe two terms 5,2 . In any case, there seems to be consensus that there are two types of

Among Epicenter’s severalresearch projects is an ongoing longitudinal survey study of the development of engineering students’career goals around innovation and engineering, referred to as the Engineering Majors Survey (EMS -2016). The EMS study follows a nationally representative sample of engineering students from theirundergraduate experiences through graduation and into the workplace (Gilmartin et al. 2017). Withinthis survey are measures of engineering task self-efficacy and innovation self-efficacy, as well as 39background learning experiences and extra-curricular activities spanning high school throughundergraduate education, which form
