, 2025 From Barriers to Bridges: The GEES Program’s Impact on Low- Income Master’s Students’ Success and Professional DevelopmentIn the United States, innovation development and economic growth have been influenced bycontributions made by STEM professionals to a great extent. Universities aim to offerstudents in STEM programs career preparedness by imparting knowledge and necessarytraining in specialized skills. However, it should be acknowledged that not all students haveequal opportunities for the study of STEM. Students from low-income and underrepresentedbackgrounds often face additional challenges, which consequently limit their academicpursuits
