Slow progress towards getting involved in meaningful basic and applied researchprojects may easily lead to a rapid declining interest in STEM and an eventual drop-out from theprogram4.In particular, numerous first-generation in college, economically disadvantaged and minoritystudents have difficulties navigating the college or graduate school system. Some of the proposedinitiatives that can aid in reducing the drop-outs from STEM careers are: (1) establishing a fellowshipprogram to reduce the student’s financial burden; (2) enhancing the faculty mentorship of minoritystudents and creating research oriented cohorts; (3
