Thecoding of the interviews was done by the principal investigator. The first transcript was coded bythe principal investigator and the social scientists were in consensus with the initial codes. Theinterviews were structured around three themes: 1) Who are leaders (society, technology, etc.)and what are their attributes? 2) What inspired the engineering undergraduate student to take onleadership roles and the lessons learned and/or skills developed from these experiences?

Among the participants, CTE teachers indicated that they found the RETprogram most helpful as this was related to what they needed to teach in their pre-engineeringcurriculum. During the RET learning experience, the physics teachers readily found connectionswith some course concepts they teach and what were introduced at the RET program (e.g., finiteelement analyses and robotics mechanisms). A few STEM teachers, however, found it hard tounderstand the materials covered in the morning workshops as well as the engineering researchin the afternoon.
