learning goals for pre-college engineering are stillbeing contested. One argument, which is promoted in science standards, is that engineeringdesign provides an authentic context to apply science concepts [4] [5] [6]. However, others arguethat this represents too narrow a view of engineering and promotes misconceptions [7] [8]. Inresponse to these concerns, the American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) andAdvancing Excellence in P12 Engineering Education introduced a Framework for P-12Engineering Learning [9]. This framework outlines learning goals for engineering literacy thatmove beyond a narrow focus on practices, including engineering habits of mind and knowledge.In addition, the authors call for further research to scaffold learning

In October 2019, we wereawarded an NSF scholarship grant to build infrastructure and provide support to low-income,academically talented, firs-generation, underrepresented, and minority (LIATFirstGenURM)graduate engineering students. As part of the internal evaluation of the program, we interviewedseven enrolled and funded graduate student beneficiaries to determine if they encountered anybarriers during their recruitment and

Further, students typically volunteer to receive SI assistance, Oraargues that these students already exhibit the motivation for success and is not surprised on theirpersistence to graduation. It is the other “at risk” students that do not volunteer for SI that ourproposed tutoring center is aimed.

Students from under-representedminority groups, students who are the first in their family to attend college, and low-incomestudents have lower success rates in college in general, and this trend is true in engineering [7].In 2016, 61% of engineering bachelor’s degrees were awarded to white students, 11.3% toAsian-American students, 11% to Hispanic students, 4% to black students, and only 0.3% toAmerican Indian or Alaska Native (AIAN) students [8].
