Women were generally more satisfied than men concerningthe faculty advisor. The most rewarding elements of the program reported was learning newskills and the excitement for pursuing careers in engineering. Frustrations were not related to theremote work rather challenges with the software and other research-related issues that are likelyto occur in any research setting.RET HighlightsKey Findings: Surveyed teachers participating in the program report increased confidence andknowledge in research

abruptlyinterrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the first semester and completely moved to online inthe second semester, survey and interview data was collected on five undergraduate engineeringstudents and three mathematics teacher candidates, which offer encouraging qualitative evidenceof their soft skills development, particularly for the engineering mentors. In this paper, we willintroduce the collaborative mentorship program and the differentiating design considerations,then discuss the results with focus on 1) the journey of these engineering students as theycollaborate with mathematics teacher candidates and serve as mentors in the afterschoolprogram, and 2) the impact of the interdisciplinary model on fostering their soft skills.1.

During both summers, the REU/RET program was conducted remotelyover nine weeks, not including pre-summer engagement activities.

This in turn helps the facility run more efficiently, which will produce betteroutcomes for the students. This may not benefit computer engineers directly, but it is a great wayto give back to the community. However, there is still a way information specifically from SC-ESL can help the computer

Civil Engineering is the newest engineering program at York College, havinggraduated its first cohort in August 2020. Our sophomore-level Introduction to EnvironmentalEngineering course is run as a three-credit lecture (three 50-minute sessions per week) with aone-credit lab (one 165-minute session per week). For a pre-pandemic semester, lab sectionshave been typically capped at 16 students; to accommodate the Spring 2021 cohort enrollment(33 students), lab sections were capped at 12 students to ensure a relatively even distribution ofstudents across the sections.
