project intended to assist two-year college faculty andadministrators to prepare proposals for the National Science Foundation Scholarships in Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (S-STEM) Program. S-STEM proposals are expectedto be built on a foundation of deep needs analyses specific to the targeted population of studentsin STEM disciplines. Based on needs assessment, programs can then focus on implementingappropriate interventions and supports that will be most effective in improving the retention andcompletion of their students. Guidelines for streamlining the acquisition and organization ofcritical elements of student needs analyses can be useful for two-year college faculty andadministrators to develop NSF S-STEM proposals and

. Second, we were challenged by the requirement that we must focus on educationalresearch, rather than the practical concerns of improving the “student professional formationexperience,” such as, for example, improving and expanding course offerings, student successstrategies, and transfer policies. We were, however, fortunate enough to have one of the Co-PIsfrom our partner university who was trained as an engineering education researcher through anNSF Research Initiation in Engineer Formation (RIEF) grant and had experience working onresearch on an S-STEM grant. She now serves as the primary engineering education researcheron the RED project, in conjunction with expert advice on research methodology and analysisfrom one of the consultants for
