In this work, the fields of study used to define an under-represented minority include Science,Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). Under-represented minorities do not necessarily havesimilar characteristics such as culture (family, ethnic, social), motivations, perspectives etc. For example,a Hispanic student who grows up in the inner city, is on free or reduced lunch, and lives in a governmentsubsidized home often has little in common with a Hispanic student who is raised in a financially stablehousehold in the suburbs.

Theminority category includes all those traditionally considered as underrepresented ethnicities:African American, Hispanics and Asian American.

Through assessing these current practices, we will be able to develop acurriculum that integrates the best practices and examines the progress of student motivation,identity, engineering skillsets, and learning over the first year. The overarching research questionthat we are studying is: In what ways do entrepreneurial minded learning (EML) experiencesaffect first-year engineering students’ motivation and identity development?
