, likely have implications forengineering students’ interest in continuing in engineering and professionals’ plans to stay intheir engineering jobs. Indeed, persons with disabilities are equally likely to enter engineeringmajors, but graduate with engineering degrees at lower rates. Similarly, only 65% of personswith disabilities who have an engineering or science degree are employed in STEM, versus 85%of persons without disabilities [9]. I thus examine students’ and professionals’ intentions to stayin engineering in the future.MethodsEngineering Students: ASEE Diversity & Inclusion SurveyThe ASEE Diversity and Inclusion Survey (ASEE-DIS) includes 1,729 students enrolled in anengineering program in one of eight US colleges or universities. 4 A

IntroductionIn today’s rapidly evolving technological landscape, STEM education is the foundation forfuture advancements, economic growth, and societal progress. It prepares students for careers infields like engineering and computer science. It equips them with the skills necessary to thrive ina technology-driven world. It also fosters innovation and problem-solving abilities to addressglobal challenges like the energy crisis, climate change, and healthcare. According to the Bureauof Labor Statistics, employment in STEM areas in the United States is projected to grow by 9.5%from 2019 to 2029, which is a much faster growth compared to
Summer Camps canalleviate this concern by exposing participants from diverse backgrounds to the topical areas,encouraging participating students to pursue STEM-based careers, and helping the nation meet theneed for a STEM-focused workforce. Thus, given the need to ensure a diverse set of studentparticipants in summer camps, including women and underrepresented minorities, and the ability ofSummer Camps to alleviate the problem, this research determines the diversity of STEM summercamp attendees in the US over two decades. The three-staged research included sample selection,parameter development, and descriptive statistical analysis. Sample selection was dictated byfactors such as the ASEE article and publication date (in twenty years). Parameter
