Assistantships on Underrepresented Minority Students in New MexicoAbstract As the nation expects a change in the make-up of its ethnic groups, minorities will increaseand play an important role in STEM fields, requiring greater support. In the last twenty years, theState of New Mexico and, particularly, New Mexico State University (NMSU) and the NewMexico Institute of Mining and Technology (NMT) have taken major strides to increase theenrollment of minority students. As a result of these efforts to achieve the status of beingHispanic Serving Institutions, changes were made to the curriculum that would teachunderserved students the skills necessary to be successful in a STEM field. Programs, such as theNew Mexico Alliance for Minority

This is potentially serving a larger minority population andproviding future work force needs of qualified minorities in these critical areas.IntroductionComputational science and engineering (CSE) and high performance computing (HPC) havenow become an integral part of several engineering and science disciplines. Still the number ofstudents from under-represented universities and minority institutions, who are involved andexposed to these fields, is very minimal. Several high performance computing training programsfunded by the National Science Foundation, the Department of the Defense, etc., hastraditionally focused on summer training in HPC for minority students from these

Summerbridge programs can provide an effective method to reduce college readiness gap betweenincoming students9, while another study10 reports that institutions that were high producers offemale and underrepresented degree recipients also offered summer bridge programs. Since the dimension of organizational context can be integral to the learning, recruitment,and retention of female and underrepresented students and to the recruitment and retention offemale and underrepresented faculty members in engineering, it is the main focus of this researchpaper.

The focus grouppresents a more natural environment than that of an individual interview because participants areinfluencing and influenced by others, just as they are in real life (Krueger, 1994). Focus groupsenable the researchers to increase the sample size without dramatic increases in the time requiredof the interviewer. In addition, focus group techniques are both useful and valid for assessingstudent problems within an undergraduate curriculum (Diamond & Gagnon, 1985).

Forfaculty designing these programs it is important to understand how effective the programcomponents are in accomplishing these objectives and in particular how these barriers maymanifest differently for different students. To this end, we are studying solutions that canproactively engage and empower students in identifying and removing those roadblocks in theirdegree pathway. The integration of bi-weekly focus groups (FGs) for participatory actionresearch (PAR) in RAMP has been found effective in connecting and assessing multiple programelements from the students’ perspective.

IntroductionNowadays, laboratories that work with hands-on experiments are among the core componentsof engineering studies. Hands-on experiments help efficiently digest theoretical concepts andtrain students to rely on the facts according to physical evidence. On the other hand, highequipment cost and the lack of the necessary maintenance and assistance have led to reducedimportance of hand-on laboratories on the curriculum. Software simulators, based onmathematical models, can be an alternative method to replace the traditional hands-onlaboratories; however, the valuable
