IntroductionAs human population, new technologies, and infrastructures continue to grow, there isa proportional increase in the demand for energy need. Currently, most energy in theUnited States is produced by fossil fuels. For the last century, petroleum, natural gas,and coal had accounted for at least 80% of the total U.S. energy consumption.[1]However, burning fossil fuels produces pollutants and heat-trapping gases

In the domains of Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), there is also concern that significantattrition can negatively impact American global competitiveness in these fields [4].One way that institutions have addressed student attrition is to provide summer bridge programsfor matriculating first-year students, particularly directly toward those who might be at risk fordropping out [5].
