According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, women make up only 15.9% of the totalengineering and architecture workforce (Employed Persons by Detailed Occupation, Sex, Race,and Hispanic or Latino Ethnicity, 2019). This creates an issue, as STEM peer contact correlateswith STEM retention among females (Hilts, Part & Bernacki, 2018).

StudentsIntroductionSignificant educational equity gaps exist in STEM fields for underrepresented minority (URM)students who live in the San Joaquin Valley. For this paper, URM students are defined as non-white and non-Asian, though it is recognized that there are subpopulations of URM studentswithin each of these non-URM groups. Some equity gaps present themselves as differences inacademic achievement between underrepresented minority URM students and non-URMstudents or women in STEM fields and arise due to numerous academic and social factors.Significant factors for attrition are perceptions about careers in the STEM fields, poorexperiences with the academic culture and teaching pedagogy, and declining confidence due todemanding curriculum.

For middle schoolstudents, STEM allows students to begin the exploration of STEM-related careers. Finally, forthe high school, STEM prepares students for successful post-secondary education and beyond1.Among the four areas of the STEM, the research in technology and engineering education inelementary and middle schools is less mature because those subjects are not as commonly taughtin K-12 education.

. Previous research supports science self-efficacy asbeing positively associated with achieving science literacy (Bryan, Glynn, & Kittleson, 2011)and science achievement (Britner & Pajares, 2001). This study examines if exposing students toyoung model “engineering experts” would impact middle schoolers’ science self-efficacy. If so,the motivation for k-12 teachers to invite engineers into their classroom is two fold. It increasesstudents’ awareness of engineering careers as well as increases student’s achievement in science.But would such a short intervention have an impact?

lure of high salaries from the expansive local industry pulls most of our students away fromgraduate school. The average starting salary for the most recent graduates with a B.S. in chemicalengineering from LSU was ~$76,000 per year. We believe this is one reason less than 3% of ourstudents enroll in graduate programs. This (low level) graduate school enrollment trend is similarfor other regional institutions. In the last decade we have had only moderate success at recruitingengineering, physics, and chemistry undergraduates from these regional schools to enroll in aSTEM Ph.D. program.
