Each year, new student success programs guided by educational theory and evidence-based practices are funded and developed to provide critical support to low-incomepostsecondary students in STEM. The Endeavour Program at the University of Houston is one ofthose programs. In the fall of 2018, Endeavour recruited its first cohort of STEM freshmen.Since then, two cohorts have completed the two-year program with the third set to complete theprogram in spring 2023.
