Further, within the learning context,interactions are adapted reciprocally by the learning environment and learner [2]. These andrelated foundations indicate that understanding the social aspect(s) of the learning environment isessential for understanding and improving learning.To identify and optimize social variables related to student learning, recent engineeringeducation literature shows a growing awareness of and interest in peer support.

In the study from UAE[26], women with higher SES were less likely to choose STEM majors and careers (Fig. 1),unlike in the US and UK where studies found higher SES to significantly impact the likelihoodof persisting in and choosing a STEM major, respectively [22, 24]. In Caspi et. al.’s study [16] inIsrael, they found no gender difference in ninth grade students’ choice of a STEM major whereasgender differences were found early on (i.e., prior to intervention) in STEM attitudes in USstudents [13].

Our two main goals are to 1) Positively impact the retention and graduationof Engineering students with financial need and 2) Improve academic performance relative to acontrol group (selected from another scholars’ community, Green Engineering Scholars or GES).In the first year of the award (2013-14), scholarships were granted to a first cohort of 15 students(11 first year and 4 second year).

This living situation can also make access to student services more challenging becausestudents must travel to campus to access the services.

) in engineering and science hasbecome much discussed topic in the industry and also in the academia (Detroit Free Press, 2016;Burke, 2016). While the state licensure bodies monitor the professional conduct of the engineers,professional engineering bodies like National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) andAmerican Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) insist and expect their members to have goodmoral character and ethical integrity (NSPE, 2016; ASCE, 2012).However, the ethical contact and the professionalism of an engineer do not start with theengineer’s first assignment as a graduate engineer, but with what this individual learns inclassrooms as an engineering student and how s|he gets trained as an engineering intern.
