©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023 Math to Makerspace: Evolution of a bridge program to support cohort developmentIntroductionThis paper shares the evolution of a summer bridge program designed to support NationalScience Foundation S-STEM scholarship students as they transition to college. The bridgeprogram, taught before the start of the fall quarter, is a week-long intensive course designed toprovide incoming first-year students with a strong and focused start to college life. The aim is toprovide a venue to help students socially and academically integrate into the campus community.Over the course of 4 years, the summer bridge program evolved from a lecture-heavy math-focused course to a project

diversity ofperspective and experience. To help all students develop the skills necessary to attract, retain,and consider the needs of diverse populations, engineering students need to consider socialresponsibility in the context of their engineering careers and scope of practice [6].To help promote engineering students’ ability to develop their social responsibility capacity, theUniversity of Massachusetts Lowell S-STEM program began with an initial plan to recruit threecohorts of 8 low-income, high-achieving students (24 students total) who wish to pursue a careerin higher education (e.g., faculty at community colleges or universities) and engage them inongoing social responsibility and identity formation curriculum.

negatively [5,6,7].Thus, more effective support for community college students transferring to four-yearinstitutions is needed to ensure their success [8]. One way to address this situation and secure thesuccess of transfer students is the creation of programs that provide institutionalized support totransfer students post-transfer. The NSF funded S-STEM scholarship programs are one exampleof such institutionalized support programs.They not only provide financial support to thestudents, but also have students engage in co-curriculum cohort activities including mentoring,academic advising, tutoring, social activities and career development activities [9].However, to develop the best support system possible, we need to have a clear understanding
