female engineering students, engineering faculty, alumni,and industry representatives. CPP WE Open House is an annual event for admitted students, held in conjunction withEngineering Scholar’s Day to encourage more young women to make the decision to enroll inthe College of Engineering. Students meet the College of Engineering staff and faculty, take acampus or College of Engineering laboratory tour, and attend an engineering club fair. Each semester, a WE Chat is held. A WE Chat provides the opportunity for femalefaculty and students to connect and learn about each other. The program provides femalestudents in the College of Engineering an opportunity to have lunch with female faculty fromtheir respective departments. Faculty

Paper ID #24988Ms. Shannon RobersonDr. Anand K. Gramopadhye, Clemson University Dr. Anand K. Gramopadhye’s research focuses on solving human-machine systems design problems and modeling human performance in technologically complex systems such as health care, aviation and man- ufacturing. He has more than 200 publications in these areas, and his research has been funded by NIH, NASA, NSF, FAA, DOE, and private companies. Currently, he and his students at the Advanced Tech- nology Systems Laboratory are pursuing cutting-edge research on the role of visualization and virtual reality in aviation maintenance, hybrid inspection and job-aiding, technology to support STEM education and, more practically, to address

explicitly excluding transgender, non-binary, andgender nonconforming students. Access denied: Barriers for transfer students to research experiences and cohort modelprograms (Cynthia Hampton and Stephen Secules). Many co-curricular support efforts rely onstudents gaining research experiences in a structured and mentored setting. For most engineeringresearch laboratories, there are one or more required prerequisite courses that a student mustcomplete before they can be used. In many cases, these courses are taken by students during theirfreshman or sophomore year. Thus, transfer students are unable to access these labs withouthaving to take these courses out of sequence. Many programs for the support of minority and women engineering
