their preparation when eventualtransfer occurs [18], resulting in transfer students being considerably less competitive in comparison totheir peers when seeking coveted upper-division research opportunities [19].In recent years there has been a push to provide community college students with opportunities todevelop research skills through course-based undergraduate research experiences (CURES) or byconducting independent research projects [20, 21]. Due to the unexpected circumstances created by theCOVID-19 pandemic, however, the education system transitioned to a remote format that could notsupport many of these research opportunities. With fewer opportunities for community college STEMstudents to engage in undergraduate research, an open

program.When designing the remote Transfer-to-Excellence program, the administrative team had severalpriorities: First, the team hoped to provide as many interns as possible with a research internship.They also sought to provide an experience as similar as possible to the planned in-personprogram. This required that interns felt a strong sense of community with their research lab andpeer interns. As the interns were all physically isolated from their peers, mentors, and facultyhosts, the administrative team sought to ensure interns felt well supported and as connected aspossible. However, they acknowledged that interns would not be able to spend excessive time onvideo calls, due to risk of zoom fatigue or boredom [9].Twelve faculty hosts unfortunately

Many challenges occur in teachingcomputing and computer tools in first-year engineering education courses. Students’ preparationand prior experience vary significantly. Students demonstrate difficulty learning the concepts incomputing and applying those concepts to writing code in a specific language [2][3]. Forengineering students, there can be a disconnect between the learning outcomes desired byinstructors and students’ perception of the connection of writing code to their future profession.This disconnect can impact engineering students’ performance to write code.

In one study, male engineering students were seven timesmore likely than female engineering students to agree that their male peers treated female peersin engineering as equals (Osborne, 2008). This suggests that male students are less likely toobserve inequality in their own contexts and in their own teams, and they likely do not believethey play a part in gendered behavior and discrimination in engineering teams.

The students in the proposed undergraduate research programwere recruited from student organizations and success programs at the University of Texas atAustin that predominately target first-generation and/or socioeconomically disadvantagedstudents. The program bookends the research experience with a lecture series at the start and aresearch conference at the end. The lectures are an instructional component designed to providestudents with the skills to write a research question, create effective search strings, andcommunicate technical subject matter. The lecture series springboards students into a researchexperience where they are matched with a graduate student or faculty member that will mentorthem on their research. Thus, this work
