Over the ten week program, students wereexpected to complete a challenging research project focused on engineering approaches to thestudy and treatment of diabetes and its complications while working with the faculty mentor. Inthis paper, we describe our five-year experience with the research program, preliminaryassessment of project goals, and observations on what constitutes a positive research experience.1.0 Introduction Undergraduate research experiences have the potential to influence the career plans andmotivation of young engineers and scientists.1 The National Science Foundation (NSF) andmany other institutions

barriers to STEMeducation opportunities are produced through intersecting axes of oppression, such as due togender, race, disability, and socioeconomic status, and can be tied to experiences ofdiscrimination and prejudice [4], [5], [6].STEM outreach programs specifically designed for identified underserved youth often aim toaddress underrepresentation within STEM, particularly within post-secondary programs orSTEM careers. We note that the framing of underrepresentation in STEM may suggest a merelack of knowledge about or opportunity to engage in STEM as the primary barrier to equity inSTEM. This framing does not acknowledge the structural exclusion inherent in STEM; manymarginalized individuals may already have opportunities to engage in STEM

of studies have shown the link between what a parent perceives as important and whattheir child values [1]. This connection between a parent and their child has the potential topositively influence their career path. Specifically, mothers are shown to play an especially largerole in their child’s interest in a STEM career [2]. Due to this connection, parents’ perception ofSTEM could be a valuable tool in encouraging students to consider pursuing STEM, regardlessof the parent’s occupation. The demand for STEM workers is growing and understanding whatparents’ opinions of STEM are could provide a resource to fill those needed roles [3].In this study, we focus on how parents, who send their children to a STEM summer camp viewSTEM.

Historically, most women who paved the way for others to enter theseprofessions neither had the opportunities nor support on their side. Nevertheless, they introducedseveral initiatives that created opportunities for other women by “shaking up the world of sciencein all sorts of groundbreaking ways” [1]. In the past few decades, there is overwhelming evidencethat women are underrepresented in engineering worldwide [7], [8]. On average, women constitute“less than 10% of engineers worldwide, so they stand out of most engineering crowds” [9]. Presently, STEM disciplines attract fewer female students compared to other majors dueto low interest in STEM related subjects while at

Most students came to favor graduate education and research and their preferencesdid not change after the REU program.
