Recent research has indicatedthat students from these populations who are strong problem solvers, and who understand how toseek assistance and navigate college campuses, are most likely persist to degree completion.Accordingly, this research examined a sample of non-traditional college students enrolled inscience and engineering programs in four urban community colleges to determine (a) the typesand frequency of support practices they utilized, (b) how such practices influenced theirachievement, persistence and transfer status to four-year colleges and universities, and (c) how inturn their propensity for innovation and creative problem solving affected such choices andpersistence.

has threaded design challenges throughout the chemical engineering core curriculum to relate real-world Community-, Industry-, Research-, and Entrepreneurship-based projects to fundamental course work. Faculty, graduate students, and dozens of chemical engineering students have developed, implemented, and refined these design challenges which stretch through the core curriculum from the first year to some graduate-level electives courses. Our goal with implementing these varied design challenges is to allow a diverse set of students the opportunity to see the numerous applications of chemical engineering to local and globally-relevant problems [1], and to help them develop the engineering skills and confidence which will

Two of the STEM programs that we have studied for our research employed suchpedagogical support through targeted advisement and mentorship, and found it effective inhelping students to transfer to four-year colleges and universities.

At the institution providing thesetting for the present study women now make up nearly 40% of the undergraduate cohortsuggesting a promising trend toward gender equity. However, representation of women amonglicensed Professional Engineers (P.Eng.) has not kept pace, with women comprising only 20% ofnewly licensed Canadian P.Eng.’s each year and just 14% of Professional Engineers overall [2-3].
