not resolved over the next decade, a national workforce deficit may occur (Olson &Riordan, 2012). Persistence is particularly important in the STEM fields, where individualswith specific skills and knowledge are needed to fill the largest growing workforce sectors,often in technology related areas. One promising intervention is built on the assumption ofa pipeline where there are not enough interested and qualified K-12 students who areeligible to enter STEM major in college thus reducing the availability of these graduates. Afew interventions, such as the “Hour of Code”, have been developed over the last fewdecades to address the pipeline issues to make STEM majors appealing to students.

This trend is likely to continue to increase as the manufacturing sector continuesto transform to a high tech, high value added, less labor-intensive industry using advancedautomated systems.Workers who can create, maintain and operate these advanced automated systems are not easy tofind. Even in troubled economic times, U.S. manufacturers have been experiencing a skillsshortage in the area of industrial automation4. The aging of the manufacturing workforceexacerbates the problem.

This first wave of initiatives was critically assessed, andengineering student success became a focal point for the CoE. Internal research conducted underthis grant exposed numerous roadblocks that impeded students' academic success. In 2010,another large grant, funded through the National Science Foundation Science Talent ExpansionProgram (STEP), was awarded to increase the numbers of students graduating with STEMdegrees.
