Thus, while STEM careers canoffer a pathway for low-income students to escape poverty, these students often encounterdifficulties in pursuing a STEM degree [4].A growing body of research has concentrated on exploring factors to enhance the retention rateamong STEM students. Scholars have shared various intervention strategies, such as implementingpeer coaching programs, academic learning communities, professional development workshops,academic counseling, and research seminars [5][6][7].Study ObjectivesTo improve retention rates and academic performance among academically talented minority andunderrepresented computer science students from

While MSIs attempt to bridge educationalgaps seen in these students with pre-college resources, first year mentoring, and tutoringsessions, awareness and participation in URE is not prevalent at a MSI. Participation in suchactivities, however, has been linked to improved career prospects and an increase in thenumber of students seeking graduate degrees. Past studies [1],[2],[9] have suggested that aninitial interest in STEM does not necessarily continue throughout undergraduate education witha higher number of students requesting major changes and/or prolonging their graduationtimeline. This paper proposes to identify current notions and perceptions surroundingundergraduate research of STEM students at a mid-sized MSI along the U.S

We also conducted inter-rater reliability checks tobolster the research quality of our work. Our preliminary findings indicate that stereotypes,exposure to women engineers’ experiences, and the perception of certain engineering fields asmale-dominated influenced women’s decisions to pursue engineering studies. Additionally, highschools, universities, the media, and governmental policies were perceived as influential factorsby the female survey respondents. These diverse cultural and institutional

andindustry. For example, while women earn 58% of undergraduate degrees across all disciplines,they account for only 24% of undergraduate students in engineering [1], [2]. Research suggeststhat this is partly due to women voluntarily choosing not to pursue an engineering educationbecause their main motivators (e.g., personal fulfillment, societal benefit) do not match theirperception of engineering careers [3], [4]. Consistent with these assertions, women earn an equalproportion of undergraduate degrees in certain engineering subfields that have an explicit goal ofimproving societal outcomes (e.g., biomedical engineering) [2]. Nevertheless, even inbiomedical engineering, there is a steep decline in female representation at the graduate studentand
