The Urban STEM project wasdesigned to address challenges faced at the three urban institutions collaborating for the project,and in particular the need for many of the engineering students to work a significant number ofhours each week, resulting in them taking fewer course hours each semester and beingdisconnected from their peers, faculty, and campus. These factors are especially concerning forstudents who are underrepresented in engineering majors, as they already leave engineeringmajors and careers at higher rates.

Many faculty were invited outside the college whowere active in research in their fields. The faculty were invited to lunch meetingwhere the program was described. The meeting provided an overview of theprogram which included a stipend and a free lunch each month. More importantly,the faculty were encouraged to participate as it will focus their career
