Thestudy will investigate the following overarching research questions: 1. Why do Black men and women choose and persist in, or leave, EE, CpE, and ME? 2. What are the academic trajectories of Black men and women in EE, CpE, and ME? 3. In what ways do these pathways vary by gender or institution? 4.

The ST@R Project achieves these goals by focusing its efforts on three majorareas: (1) Student Support Services and Outreach Efforts, (2) Mentoring and Coaching, and (3)Career Exploration and Professional Development. To improve the pipeline of electricalengineers as well as increase the number of underrepresented individuals, the ST@R project alsofocuses on researching and developing a pedagogical system that addresses diverse teaching andlearning styles within the engineering classroom.

researchquestions for this stage of the study are: 1. What are the different types of feedback coaches provide and what characteristics distinguish the different types of feedback? 2. What is the relationship between coach feedback and the development of the experimental models and strategies students apply as they work to complete the assigned task?FeedbackFeedback is an essential tool used by instructors to close the gap between current performanceand desired performance. In education, it takes many forms, including interactions both insideand outside the classroom. Feedback inside the classroom has been found to have a strongconnection to student performance and learning.4 Additionally, the importance of office hourshas been identified and

Drawing on organizational climate research and intersectionalitytheory, the project aims to use a student-centered approach to shed light on the specificorganizational climate present in doctoral engineering department by engaging with studentsfrom diverse groups. We aim to answer three research questions: 1. What focused climates arepresent in doctoral engineering departments? 2. How do climate perceptions differ byintersecting social categories? 3. How do climate perceptions relate to organizationalcommitment to degree completion? For this project, we intend to reintroduce organizational climate science into
