students.Cohort BuildingOne of the requirements of the NSF S-STEM Scholarship grant is cohort building. In the firstyear of the award, there were only two students in the program and cohorting was achieved byregular meetings with the program director. In the subsequent years, the group has increased insize and more planned cohorting activities, both in-class and outside-the-class, were developed.To start with, the students were assigned the same academic advisor in order to select classesthey can take together. We will first briefly describe the general process of class selection forengineering freshmen and then the process used for the STEM students to build cohorts.
