development.Eligibility criteria. To recruit the first cohort for the S-STEM program, scholars were required tomeet financial and academic eligibility criteria. Financially, students met UTSA’s definition of a“low-income student” or a student with documented unmet financial need (UFN) per the recordsof the Office of Institutional Research (OIR). This meant that a student was (a) eligible to receivea Federal Pell Grant for the award year for which the determination was made; or (b) with a FreeApplication for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) reported a combined family income at or below$50,500. UTSA defined the UFN as the difference between a student’s FAFSA reported familycontribution and UTSA’s annual cost of attendance (CoA). The current UTSA CoA is $22,860 forin

? and (b) How can these interactions be captured within acomprehensive framework?2.2. Study Context and ParticipantsThe study was conducted in two second-year engineering courses: a mathematics course covering linearalgebra and differential equations, and a foundational engineering statics course. These courses representcritical and complementary elements of the engineering curriculum and are mandatory for most students.Participants consisted of 20 undergraduate students (7 females, 13 males) from a mid-sized public land-grant university in the western United States. Eleven students were enrolled in the mathematics course, andnine in the engineering course. Tasks were administered late in the semester to ensure participants haddeveloped a solid

In addition to raising important future research questions aboutengineering education, this study demonstrates that undergraduates play diverse andmultidimensional roles in research communities. Thus, studies of collaboration and laboratoryculture should include undergraduates as relevant actors. References[1] B. A. Nagda, S. R. Gregerman, J. Jonides, W. von Hippel, and J. S.
