Components Many of the articles analyzed included the programmatic components developed forstudent engagement, although the number and types of elements differed. These differencesallowed for variability in timespan and depth in which students were able to explore content,build relationships, and develop STEM-oriented competencies. Programs incorporated one ormore of the following components: onboarding process, STEM-focused curriculum, researchapprenticeship, internship, mentorship, hands-on STEM activities/projects, oral and posterpresentations, STEM workshops, and college/career preparation. The common components forthe intervention programs included recruiting and onboarding, type of intervention, length, andaccommodations and incentives

As one student in Azraq said, ‘the course can be about totransform the mind of a student. At the end of the course, it's when your thoughts

, components that the majority of engineeringdepartments are adopting include rapid prototyping tools, such as additive manufacturingmachines (3D printers) and laser cutters [3], [4].Makerspaces and Engineering Education. Makerspaces have become popular withinengineering education. Integrating a makerspace into an engineering curriculum can be adaunting task given the scope and sequence of university engineering coursework. Recentresearch found that over a three-month period, students who took part in a course that integrateda class project within the makerspace were positively and significantly impacted in the domainsof technology self-efficacy, innovation orientation, affect towards design, design self-efficacy,and belonging to the makerspace [5

beginning and end of the semester. Coursebelonging and engineering identity was higher among first-generation and low-income studentsin EMath on the pre survey. Course belonging and math confidence increased on the post survey.Among students enrolled in an engineering projects course in fall 2018, at the end of thesemester students also enrolled in EMath had higher private regard and group identification (twomeasures of identity) compared to students not enrolled in EMath; the largest difference wasamong URM students. The results indicate that EMath might provide a supportive environmentwith benefits to students’ engineering identity, although confounding factors of additional cohortprograms and intersectional identities are complications to the

form of observing other students in class, working with students ongroup projects, and being able to see their grades along with the grades of their classmates. I feel like this is something that a lot of classes or professors or the curriculum science and engineering do: they are trying to weed out people because they have this idea of a model student who was born with the ability to understand math and science but it's difficult to fight against that current. I got really lucky when I was in community college that I found professors that pushed me and that actually guided me. I was struggling but they were supporting me to have a better understanding. It's not that they were holding my hand, I had to
