A survey for junior students was also administered in Spring 2017 and will be administered in the Spring semesters of subsequent years. This survey broadly examines student engagement and classroom climate in the College of Engineering. The goal is to determine if there are changes in juniors’ experiences pre-/post-implementation of ISE-2.  Student engagement in the classroom is measured by the Student Experience in the Research University Survey (SERU-S)2.

STEM transfer students exist. Programs such as summer bridge programs, mentoring,tutoring, learning communities, and other activities are fairly common at the undergraduate levelin STEM fields, and many of these programs have historically been funded by NSF STEP and S-STEM programs. Few systematic studies of interventions have been conducted, however. Localassessment data, typically published in conference papers and reports, support the efficacy of theseinterventions; however, no systematic reviews of the considerable literature have been found.

For example, since my high school focused on science and technology, Ireally had that opportunity to sort of become a scientist. But, what I realized when working senioryear on my research project is that scientist[s] spend their whole lives delving into a problem,laying it out, describing it, but they don’t solve it at all, and I don’t think I would be able to livesuch big issues on my shoulders that I could
