coordinator. These sessions provided aunique opportunity for students to have access to [SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING] resources andto begin developing a strong network of support, while beginning to prepare for the next steps ofentry into the engineering major.The 2019 FYSE Program was funded in part through a generous grant from the Maryland SpaceGrant Consortium and supported and run through the [SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING]’s Womenin Engineering Program office. The entirety of the program was of no cost to participants, in aneffort to best support underrepresented student populations (women and racial/ethnic minoritizedidentities) in strengthening mathematics skills for and building community within the study ofengineering.Participant OverviewTwenty-four
colonization is endemic to society by showing how assimilatedmost research and education are [5]; a ‘new’ approach is offered based upon relationship.SummaryTMCC and CCCC have both significantly increased their pass rates in remedial math courses inthe past five years, thus further opening the door for the pre-engineering program. Each TCU isimplementing their own unique approach demonstrating one size does not fit all. When lookingat increasing the number of successful students in remedial math, we must look at context, that isthe relationships between student, tribal college, community, family, and Nation.
