The objectives of the program are to: (i)expand and diversify the engineering/technology workforce of the future, (ii) develop linkagesand articulations with 2-year schools and their S-STEM (Scholarships in Science, Technology,Engineering and Mathematics) programs, (iii) provide increased career opportunities and jobplacement rates through mandatory paid co-op experiences, and (iv) serve as a model for otheruniversities to provide vertical transfer students access to the baccalaureate degree.The program is in its third year. It recruited its first group of 25 students in Fall 2017, andanother group of 27 students in Fall 2018. We hope to recruit 26 more students in Fall 2019 for atotal of 78 vertical transfers. The goal

engineering students through community building (Evaluation) AbstractOver the past twelve years, the ESTEEM program, funded by the NSF S-STEM, at University ofCalifornia Santa Barbara (UCSB) has supported 161 low-income undergraduate students inengineering. This paper emphasizes the students’ changing needs and what they foundsupportive over time with a special focus on the shifting needs for community building before,during, and after COVID-19 pandemic remote learning. Without additional support, low-incomeengineering students, who often reflect additional intersecting minoritized identities and are morelikely to be the first in their family to attend college, leave the field at

for the retention of first-year students [10]. A report entitled“STEM Students & Their Sense of Belonging: S-STEM Programs’ Practices & EmpiricallyBased Recommendations” identifies cohort experiences as an important factor in academicintegration and success [9]. Offering retention programs is valuable, but if students do not attendor participate, they will not receive the maximum benefits that these programs can provide.Students are more likely to participate in retention programs if they feel a sense of communitywithin the institution [9]. Furthermore, female engineering students, who have been found tohighly value the sense of connectedness, benefit from the positive impact of a supportivecommunity, enhancing their resilience. Thus

To meet the publicand private sectors’ need for cybersecurity professionals, universities are adding academicprograms in cybersecurity.
