At minority serving institutions, African American and Latina/ostudents’ identity development is shaped by the positive experiences with faculty and peers intheir programs25. In identifying as engineers, students express a certain pride in the rite ofpassage of overcoming the challenges of the engineering curriculum3,25. There are some genderdifferences with regards to engineering identity; women are less likely to identify as engineersthan men, especially freshmen female students4.

This lack of academic resources is reflective of thesocioeconomic disparity between regions. This is not surprising since URM primary and middle grade math scores are much lower thantheir White and Asian peers. North Carolina students’ average National Assessment ofEducational Progress (NAEP) math score for fourth graders was four points higher than thenational average of 240 in 2015.

Above all other professions,engineering has the power to change the world on a large scale. Since I started to take my mentorship duties seriously, and I started reading aboutmentoring and visiting websites dedicated to mentoring, I realized that my vision and myphilosophy are similar in some ways to other mentors, but in some ways, they also are quiteunique. Upon discussing them with other faculty, I could see that when people write aboutmentoring they make it appear more institutionalized and well regulated but when they talkabout it, mentors emphasize the personal touch and the relationships that they developindividually

Negative interactions within those experiences can affect the mental functioning andwellbeing of the students. These negative experiences result in high levels of distress that maynot be clearly visible to peers or faculty but can have significant impacts within their collegiatechoices. Available research indicates that approximately 50% of students display alarming levelsof stress, anxiety, and depression [1], [2]. This statistic is an indicator of a mental health crisisthat could be ravaging higher education institutions. Recent engineering education research(EER

.Student ratings of male and female instructors are likely influenced by the genderedexpectations of the rater12. Two straightforward examples of gendered expectations are thatstudents are more likely to assume a male instructor holds a PhD as compared with a femaleinstructor13 and are more likely to refer to male instructors as “Doctor” or by their last namewhen writing evaluations of their instructors14. Each of these examples shows that the status andcredentials of female faculty are discounted. Female professors may be expected to be morecaring and nurturing than male professors, given that these traits are considered morefeminine12.

How does one come to belong? Aftersharing, students discussed initial ideas of what it means to do an engineering project that is“engaged with a community”.

In schools emergent bilingual students are often subjectedto low-level content and lower expectations than their monolingual English-speaking peers. Forexample, school leaders may believe that multilingual children need to learn basic Englishlanguage skills first before they can engage in science inquiry and engineering design. Incontrast, other approaches position multilingual and emergent bilingual students in light of theirassets [1]. Our project, thus, views multilingual learners
