the objective to develop future collaborative research proposals.Application and selection processThe participants were selected from TAMU, NCAT, and UNLV. Although applications receivedfrom relevant engineering majors were considered desirable, those from other STEM disciplineswith a close relationship to big data were also reviewed. The NSF's application submission andmanagement system were kept on a dedicated website(https://www.nsfetap.org/award/103/opportunity/105). Students needed to meet the followingrequirements to be considered: (a) have an interest in conducting applied research; (b) bemajoring in engineering, engineering technology, statistics, or a closely related field; (c) bejunior or senior in the upcoming Fall semester/quarter

Indetail, the online program evaluation consists of the pre-program survey with four sections andthe post-program survey with five sections: (a) current knowledge, (b) a scale on perceptions ofentrepreneurship, (c) practice, (d) team and business model, and (e) program evaluation (post-program survey only). The format of the assessment included both open-ended questions andseven-point Likert scales, which ranged from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly

certificateprogram, the community college students will have multiple pathways including: a) an A.S. at theCommunity College; b) transfer to four year institution; and c) return to industry to join the workforce. Byincorporating a new co-educational paradigm between the community college and the university, asopposed to traditional articulation agreements, this project provides a novel pathway for community collegestudents to transition to a four-year degree program. It also incorporates a new method for trying to ensurethat community college students who matriculate to partner 4-year institutions receive reverse transfercredit for their associate degrees at their home community college. Furthermore, HVM modules aredeveloped for high school students that
